Festool Cordless Drill C 18-Basic

Enjoy full flexibility when drilling and screwdriving: the Festool C 18 Cordless Drill features completely electronic torque adjustment, CENTROTEC quick-change system, as well as angle attachment, eccentric attachment and depth stop can handle any drilling or screwdriving task.

The combination of the Li-HighPower battery pack and maintenance-free brushless EC-TEC motor means that the C 18 cordless drill is light, long-lasting and durable. The cordless screwdriver and battery pack are completely covered with the Festool SERVICE, giving you peace of mind for your day-to-day work. Available in unique C-design or – depending on personal preference – in T-design as the T 18+3.

Festool cordless drills look different, because they are different. Crafted to the highest level of German engineering, Festool cordless drills offer a level of quality not found in other cordless drills. From the EC-TEC brushless motors, to the interchangeable Centrotec and FastFix chucks, these cordless drills were designed to work the way you work.

Thanks to Festool’s innovative FastFix chuck system, the C-Series cordless drill is incredibly versatile and does the work of five drills in one.

• (1) The optional eccentric chuck is perfect for corners and against adjoining edges.
• (2) The keyless drill chuck can be used with drill and driver bits up to 1/2″ in diameter.
• (3) For lighter weight and a more compact footprint, use the smaller, lighter Centrotec chuck with its full array of interchangeable drill and driver bits.
• (4) The most unique is the right-angle chuck which provides a 90° angle to the drive motor for tight spaces. The eccentric and right-angle chucks can both swivel a full 360 degrees with 16 locking positions.
• (5) The optional depth stop chuck provides consistent, precise depth settings regardless of workpiece material. If that’s still too few options, you can also use standard hex driver bits in the drill with no chuck attached.

All Festool power tools include a 3-year wear-and-tear warranty, 2-day standard repair time, and 1-month satisfaction guarantee.

Note: Does not include required battery pack and charger. You can purchase the C 18 in a set with two battery packs and a rapid charger here.
