Product Overview

Manufacturer: Festool

  • Ergonomic, effortless, efficient. The Festool OFKC 500 R3 EB cordless edge router is designed to make routing simple and seamless. Its well-balanced centre of gravity and slimline design ensure stable, tilt-free routing. With cordless freedom, you gain better mobility and adaptability. Thanks to precision depth control down to 1/10 mm and a rock-solid connection between motor and router, you get clean, exact results — no reworking needed.


    Features:

    Greater freedom with 18V battery power.

    Enjoy smooth operation and easier handling without the clutter of cords. Just a few adjustments and you’re ready to go.

    Comfortable and intuitive.

    Compact and lightweight with a slim design for fatigue-free use. Precisely matched cutters for the base plate prevent tipping when routing into materials — allowing safe, fast operation with no need to fix mistakes.

    Precision routing made easy.

    Height adjustments can be finely tuned in 0.1 mm steps. The cutter is mounted directly on the spindle for outstanding run-out accuracy and pristine results. The integrated ball bearing on the cutter enables flush routing in rebates or on stacked panels.

    Low-profile design.

    With a flush ball bearing mount, the cutter height is limited to just 12 mm — perfect for routing on rebates or panel stacks.

    Pinpoint depth control.

    Depth can be finely set to 1/10 mm accuracy. The locking system holds the table firmly in place during use and is simple to operate.

    Quick cutter changes.

    Thanks to the spindle stop, changing the cutter is fast and hassle-free.

    Cleaner, more accurate work.

    A transparent dust hood ensures chips are effectively extracted. The spring-loaded ball bearing brake prevents heat marks on your material.

    Brushless EC-TEC motor.

    Quiet, powerful, and low-vibration performance made possible with a highly efficient brushless motor and intelligent motor management.

    Slim and well-balanced.

    Its compact form and angled battery position create a perfect balance in both vertical and horizontal applications.

    Exceptional run-out precision.

    In the OFK 500 series, the cutter is mounted directly on the spindle, ensuring superb true-running accuracy for excellent finish quality.

    Cordless mobility.

    The built-in battery provides cable-free edge routing, giving you more freedom while working.

    Protection for your materials.

    A durable base runner protects the surface of your workpiece from scratches or dents, while ensuring smooth gliding across surfaces.

    No tip-overs.

    Smaller base plate hole diameter paired with matched cutters ensures flawless, stable routing without tipping.

    More freedom of movement.

    The spring-mounted ball bearing brake gives you better manoeuvrability, even when working without a dust extractor.

    Material-specific speed adjustment.

    MMC electronics allow you to quickly set the right speed for any material, keeping it steady under load. Plus, thermal monitoring keeps your motor protected and long-lasting.

    Festool 18V Bluetooth® battery compatibility.

    Bluetooth® battery packs sync with your extractor’s remote control function — power up your router, and your dust extractor follows suit.

    Festool App connectivity.

    Via the Festool app, access machine data like last known location, get accessory recommendations, expert tips, perform software updates, or submit repair requests when needed.
