The FESTOOL 576887 CXS 18-Basic is a compact 18 V cordless drill-driver designed for tight spaces and everyday drilling and fastening tasks. Its small, ergonomic profile and low weight make it suitable for work in corners and narrow access areas while retaining increased torque compared with earlier compact designs on lower-voltage platforms.
Fast, tool-free accessory changes are possible via the FastFix interface and CENTROTEC system. Practical onboard details include a magnetic bit holder, adjustable LED work light (trigger-activated or manual), depth stops and an eccentric adapter for depth-limited driving close to edges. The removable belt clip can be mounted on either side for convenient carry.
The brushless EC-TEC motor provides longer runtimes per charge and extended motor life compared to conventional brushed motors. Two-speed gearing and 13 torque settings with torque switch-off give control for precision fastening. The tool stores in a Systainer³ with a lid compartment for tidy transport and integrates with Systainer systems for workshop or van racking. When used with a Bluetooth® battery pack, LED control and left/right selector reversal can be managed via the Festool App.
- 18 V battery voltage – Operates on an 18 V battery platform for more power than lower-voltage compact drills.
- Brushless EC-TEC motor – Longer runtimes per charge and extended motor life compared with conventional brushed motors.
- FastFix and CENTROTEC interfaces – Tool-free conversions and quick changes between drilling, driving and angular attachments.
- Compact, ergonomic C‑shape handle – Improves alignment with the bit for precise work and reduces user fatigue in tight spaces.
- Integrated magnetic bit holder – Keeps a driver bit on-board for faster bit changes and fewer dropped bits.
- Adjustable LED work light – Illuminates the work area; can be trigger-activated or switched on/off manually (Bluetooth® battery pack enables app control).
- 13 torque settings + torque switch-off – Fine torque control for consistent fastening and protection of fasteners and materials.
- Depth stops and eccentric adapter – Allow depth-limited driving close to edges and for repeatable fastening depths.
- Removable, reversible belt clip – Mount on either side to suit left- or right-handed carry preferences.
- Systainer³-compatible storage – Stores in a Systainer³ with lid compartment and integrates with Systainer van/workshop racking for transport and organization.
