Functions

Pure power, controlled in four gears.

Powerful. Versatile. With four gears for every application. With the best switching concept you have ever operated. Whether you are working on wood or metal: The TDC is extremely durable and, thanks to its brushless EC-TEC motor, has extreme resilience and endurance. The large number of attachments, combined with perfectly matched accessories, make the QUADRIVE an unrivalled drill for a wide range of possible uses. What about your hand twisting dangerously if the tool suddenly jams? Our intelligent KickbackStop minimises the risk of this happening. Give it a go: The best drill that Festool has ever built!

Powerful for work with screws and drills with larger diameters, rapid for clean work progress when working with small diameters
Maximum performance: Thanks to the extremely powerful, brushless, and therefore long-lasting, EC-TEC motor
Robust: Resilient four-speed metal gearbox, also fully covered by the comprehensive support provided by Festool Service
The QUADRIVE with four gears for every working situation: From screwdriving with 50 Nm torque in first gear to precise drilling at 3600 rpm in fourth gear
Versatile: Thanks to the FastFix interface, quick conversion without the need for tools for drilling, screwdriving, angular drilling and angular screwdriving
The depth stop and eccentric adapter also enable depth-limited screwdriving close to edges
Flexible cordless system: For applications with high power needs, the 4.0 Ah Li-HighPower Compact battery pack provides the ideal powerful, compact and lightweight solution. The 5.0 Ah battery pack is the right choice for even more power for particularly difficult drilling and screwdriving applications. Fully covered: Needless to say, the comprehensive support provided by Festool Service also applies to battery packs
Mobile: The QUADRIVE comes in a Systainer³ and so can be seamlessly integrated into bott vehicle equipment for easy transportation from the workshop to the construction site

Product highlights

High-speed and durable.

The robust four-speed metal gearbox stands out in QUADRIVE with its enormous power and high speeds and it can handle even the greatest of loads. The fully optimised switching concept allows users to switch from any gear straight to any other in a fast and controlled manner. The latest generation of brushless EC-TEC motors enables rapid work progress and clean drilling results.
Unrivalled range of applications.

The large number of attachments, combined with perfectly matched accessories, makes the TDC the most versatile drill and it is unrivalled in its class. The smart FastFix interface allows the attachments to be changed quickly and without the need for any tools – for flexible drilling, screwdriving, angular drilling and angular screwdriving. The depth stop and eccentric adapter also enable depth-limited screwdriving close to edges.
Compact with extra safety.

Thanks to its excellent handle ergonomics and short design, the TDC fits perfectly in your hand even when it is bursting with power. To avoid hazards: The electronic KickbackStop minimises the risk of you twisting your wrist if the drill suddenly jams.

Product details

TDC 18/4-Basic

For greater safety when working

The electronic KickbackStop prevents your wrist from twisting dangerously if the drill suddenly becomes caught or jammed, therefore ensuring improved safety when working.
The QUADRIVE – four gears, with the right one for every application

1st gear: Demanding tightening of screws up to 10 mm. 2nd gear: Quick screwdriving up to 8 x 300 mm in size. 3rd gear: Powerful drilling with auger bits of up to 20 mm. 4th gear: Quick drilling with medium and small drill bits up to 35 mm, for example Forstner drill bits.
Optimised gear switching

Fast, safe, direct! Switching in any direction – from any gear straight to any other, without intermediate stages. Fixed stops ensure clear engaging. Fast downshifting possible as required.
Increased power in 2nd gear

40% more torque compared to the previous model for full traction with 8 mm screws.

QUADRIVE: Unique system width and perfect system compatibility

Thanks to the smart FastFix interface, you can use all of the 18 V attachments from the Festool range and therefore benefit from the system advantages. No other drill has such varied possible uses!
CENTROTEC tool chuck – for even more speed at construction sites

For instantly changing between drilling, countersinking and screwdriving: The CENTROTEC tool chuck, which has proven itself since 2001, is a chuck and bit holder in one. Even though it is half the size and weighs 80% less than a standard chuck: A real Festool invention with the usual Festool quality.
Latest generation of brushless EC-TEC motors

The brushless EC-TEC motor is wear-free and converts the energy from the battery into optimum power with virtually no losses. The electronic motor management also guarantees maximum service life: Microprocessors monitor and control the temperature, voltage and current consumption of the motor, electronics and battery. The latest generation of EC-TEC motors provide more torque and speed under load.
Practical attachments with quick angle adjustment

Very quick angle adjustment simply by rotating the green ring. The attachment no longer needs to be released from the machine. Even the eccentric adapter for screwdriving close to edges is equipped with quick angle adjustment.
Convenient for day-to-day use

Optimised torque adjustment to prevent accidental adjustment. A robust belt clip that can be attached on both sides and a bit holder for secure and magnetic bit storage at the side of the drill.
Perfect ergonomics – both compact and powerful

Thanks to its smaller circumference, the optimised handle ensures improved ergonomics and easier handling.
Extra mobile with vehicle integration

The screwdriver for Systainer³ products can also be seamlessly integrated into bott vehicle equipment for easy transportation from the workshop to the construction site. Systainer³ products are compatible with one another and can be connected to all previous Systainer generations, mobile dust extractors and many other system accessories, such as roll boards or the mobile workshop.
Sophisticated in every detail – including for left-handed people

For left-handed people, the Festool App can be used to reverse the right-hand/left-hand selector switch such that the switch no longer causes disruption by protruding into the handle area during the main application – in clockwise rotation.
IoT via Festool App

When operated with a Bluetooth® battery, software updates, repair orders for servicing and many other functions can be used.
Optimal lighting – can also be controlled via the Festool App

With LED light that can be switched on for precise work even in the darkest of corners. Brightness and lighting duration can also be set via the Festool App.
