Get straight, accurate holes every time—no guesswork. The MB 40 helps you drill perfectly at 90 degrees, whether you’re on the jobsite or in the shop. Set your depth, line up your holes, and drill clean through wood, metal, or plastic. Need to drill straight down, into end grain, or make a row of holes? No problem. You can hook up dust collection right to the base, so you always see your mark. It’s another FastFix add-on that works with your Festool cordless drill and gives you more ways to get the job done right.
