FESTOOL. Faster - Easier - Smarter

Why Buy Quality?

If money is tight, now’s truly the time to spend it wisely. Those who have already discovered Festool are already reaping the benefits of working with an efficient system. For anybody possibly hesitating to make an investment because of economic reasons, is it a difficult decision to invest in quality? You can save costs by seeking alternative inexpensive options, but it may not turn out to be the best solution?

Over the life of a power tool, 80% of the total tool costs are your labor costs and 16% goes towards consumable items (i.e. abrasives, saw blades, drill bits, etc.). The tool purchase only accounts for 4% of your total cost!

Festool's power tool systems significantly increase your efficiency and extend the life of your consumables – so you actually save money! Are Festool tools expensive or a good investment? The Festool brand has been established since 1925 to offer tradesmen practical products and solutions to facilitate their daily work. Our main priority has always been to make work easier whilst simultaneously increasing economic efficiency, these values remain at the heart of the company philosophy. Have you ever made an evaluation of your overall costs?

Here is an example, why Festool power tools are the right investment for lower long term costs:


Festool works to a system principle - altogether the best connection for the perfect result.

Our customers demand high-quality, unblemished surfaces in the shortest time possible. But what gives a surface it’s quality?

Amana Tool Introduces Black Mamba™ Thin-kerf Saw Blades for Framing and Decking Applications

Black Mamba Saw BladesFrom the Press:

Farmingdale, N.Y. – June 9, 2009 – Amana Tool, manufacturers of industrial-quality carbide-tipped, solid carbide and replacement carbide cutting tools, today announced the new Black Mamba™ saw blades as part of its A.G.E.™ saw blade offerings. Black Mamba blades are ideal for use in portable saws, either on the job site or in the shop, giving contractors access to industrial-quality cutting materials regardless of location. The new blades feature a thin-kerf design and hollow ground teeth that provide sharper cuts and help extend blade life. Black Mamba blades are designed for general rip and cut applications such as framing and decking where fast, efficient cuts are needed, even in wet lumber.

The Black Mamba saw blade bodies are laser cut from virgin steel, then flattened, ground and tensioned. Carbide tips are then brazed onto the plates and ground to our specifications, enabling smooth, accurate cutting. Black Mamba blades also feature laser cut expansion slots that reduce noise, minimize vibrations and prevent heat buildup and blade warping, as well as laser cut diamond knockouts for easy twist removal. Each step in the manufacturing process is computer-controlled and monitored by sophisticated inspection equipment to assure the tightest tolerances and superior quality.


Black Mamba saw blades are available in 7 ¼” diameter with either 24 teeth for general rip and cut framing or decking (#MD7240) or 40 teeth for finish cuts (#MD7400).
