Innovation. Compounded.
The Kapex KS 120 was developed with one goal in mind: to be the best sliding compound miter saw, period. The KS 120 is the first miter saw with variable speed, enabling the user to match the speed of the blade with the requirements of the material for perfect cuts, every time. Finally, a sliding compound miter saw that combines a large cutting capacity with a compact lightweight design.

The innovative twin-column forward rail design gives this saw greater precision in an extremely small footprint. And Festool's meticulous engineers designed the saw to capture 91% of the saw dust when used with a CT dust extractor (when using a 36 mm hose).

Lightweight sliding compound miter saw
There are many good reasons to make the Kapex KS 120 your next sliding compound miter saw: lightweight, superb dust extraction capabilities, micro-bevel adjustments, large scales, variable speed, quick release fences, dual laser guides, and FastFix blade changes, to name a few.

Innovative features that allow you to measure and cut inside and outside corners without complex calculations are sure to take productivity to new levels. No other sliding compound miter saw offers so much value and so many great features.

Kapex sliding compound miter saw applications
The KS 120 has a small footprint and compact design with a great amount of power. The power and impressive cutting depth of the KS 120 will make you think that you are working with a much larger saw. This saw is remarkable. It has the cutting capacity of a 12" unit and is capable of cutting trim molding almost 4 3/4" tall in the special cutting position, and hardwoods greater than 3" thick, smoothly and precisely.

Most miter saws are not designed to cut anything but wood, but with variable speed capability, the Kapex allows you to match the speed of the blade with the requirements of the material. Efficient dust extraction is a foremost consideration in the design of the Kapex, allowing you to focus on your work, not on cleaning up. The saw comes with an angle transfer device and dual laser guides to eliminate complex angle calculations by copying the angle directly from the wall to the saw.

Effective accessories that make your work easier
For example, aligning narrow wooden stock perfectly in preparation for mortising – no problem with the trim stop. The stop allows you to centrally position and secure narrow material with widths of 7/8" (22mm) and above quickly and reliably. The stop can also be used for miter routing.
