Compact Power Meets Festool Precision
The Festool CXS and TXS 18 drills raise the bar for compact power tools. Built with the EC TEC brushless motor and a reliable lithium-ion battery system, these drills deliver full 18V performance without extra bulk. The lightweight design makes them comfortable for extended use while the compact profile slips easily into tight spaces that larger drills cannot reach. For professionals and hobbyists alike, these drills bring strength and precision together in a size that feels effortless.
Both the CXS 18 with its ergonomic C handle and the TXS 18 with its traditional T handle provide balanced control for precise work. The CXS 12 takes portability further, combining Festool engineering with a 12-volt platform that still provides impressive torque. All three models work with the FastFix interface and CENTROTEC system, making bit and attachment changes quick and simple. The variety of attachment options is one of the strongest advantages, giving these drills the flexibility to handle cabinetry, furniture building, installations and repair work with the same ease.
These drills are not just about power. They are about intelligent design. An integrated LED light ensures visibility in dark corners. A magnetic bit holder keeps accessories close at hand. The belt clip mounts on either side for convenience while new systainers with lid compartments simplify tool storage and transport. Every feature is created with efficiency in mind so you can stay focused on the task instead of the tool.
The CXS and TXS 18 drills are part of a growing line of Festool cordless solutions. Numerous attachments expand versatility so each drill adapts to a wide range of applications. From first setup to final detail work, these compact drills prove themselves as dependable partners in the shop and on the job.
For anyone seeking a compact and powerful drill that is also versatile, Festool has created a solution that works as hard as you do. Available online and at your local Woodcraft store, these drills deliver lasting performance and precision in a form factor that fits your hand and your projects perfectly.
