Cordless Drill C 12 with EC-TEC ® by Festool<br />
All the benefits at a glance.<br />

EC-TEC ® : Reliable<br />
EC-TEC ® : The right choice for every application<br />
For the toughest applications –<br />
even in series production.<br />
Series production really sorts the men out from the boys.<br />
Cordless drills used in series production require a high level<br />
of technical reliability and durability.<br />
EC-TEC ® with integral life assurance.<br />
The C 12 meets the toughest demands thanks to its extremely<br />
wear-resistant EC technology. In addition, a thermosensor and<br />
electronic low voltage control ensure that the motor and battery<br />
pack have a long service life. If the motor overheats in extreme<br />
cases or the voltage in the batteries is too low, the motor cuts out.<br />
Complete battery pack discharge is a thing of the past.<br />
Compact drill with outstanding power.<br />
The EC-TEC motor and gear mechanism are the main reasons why<br />
the C 12 is so compact. These two factors combined have allowed<br />
for a slim softgrip design so that the C 12 rests perfectly in your<br />
hand. The C 12 is lighter, more comfortable to use and more<br />
powerful.<br />
Lightweight with both compact and<br />
standard batteries.<br />
The new C 12 series is characterised by low weight and high<br />
efficiency: decide whether you would prefer to work with the<br />
super-lightweight compact battery pack and benefit from a high<br />
screwing capacity or the lightweight standard battery pack and<br />
enjoy maximum screwing capacity.<br />
