Festool ZOBO WD C 35x100 S2 35mm Wood Drill Bit
At a Glance: Professional 35 mm ZOBO System 2 wood drill bit manufactured from high-alloy chromium steel, with a 100 mm overall length, 12 mm shank and interchangeable CP-WD 2.5 x 3.5 centring point for accurate, clean drilling in wood.
The Festool ZOBO WD C 35x100 S2 is a premium 35 mm woodworking drill designed for exceptionally accurate, clean and efficient large-diameter boring. Part of the ZOBO System 2 range, it is manufactured from high-alloy chromium steel for excellent cutting performance, durability and long service life. The precision cutting geometry produces clean holes while the interchangeable CP-WD 2.5 x 3.5 centring point establishes the drilling position accurately before the main cutting edges enter the timber. Unlike a conventional fixed-point wood bit, the ZOBO system allows the centring point to be replaced independently, while the drill itself can be professionally resharpened repeatedly – up to approximately 30 times when correctly maintained. Optional ZOBO extensions make deep drilling possible in beams, walls, ceilings and other substantial timber work, while a compatible depth gauge allows repeated holes to be drilled to a defined depth. With its 35 mm cutting diameter, 100 mm overall length and strong 12 mm round shank, the WD C 35x100 S2 is a beautifully engineered drilling solution for professional joinery, carpentry, furniture manufacturing and timber construction.
ZOBO System 2 – precision large-diameter drilling in wood
ZOBO drills are designed as a modular professional drilling system rather than simply as conventional wood bits. Interchangeable centring components, compatible depth gauges and purpose-made extensions allow the same precision drill to be configured for accurate positioning, controlled drilling depth and deep-hole applications. The WD C chromium-steel version combines very sharp cutting geometry with a durable, resharpenable tool body for long-term professional use.
