Q: What is this drilling system used for?
This Parf guide builds a customized work-holding surface, such as a workbench top or assembly table, by templating a precise grid of 20mm holes on 96mm centers.
58B3996 - Mk.II Parf Guide Drilling System
With this jig, you can create a work surface based on the same concept as the Festool MFT/3 multifunction table, but sized and configured exactly to your needs.
An upgrade of the original UJK Parf guide drilling system, the jig offers a straightforward, reliable way to space 20mm holes on 96mm centers, ensuring they are accurately square to one another in each axis. The system includes a pair of 1m rules that are used as templates for drilling starter holes. Made of stainless steel with a low-glare satin-chrome finish, each rule has a series of CNC-drilled holes that accept included 90° drill-guide bushings, which are made of hardened steel for wear resistance and have side vents for chip clearance.
It comes with a 3mm bit (compatible with standard hex chucks as well as Festool Centrotec chucks) and 3mm indexing pins, each with a knurled collar for grip. To enlarge the starter holes to 20mm, it also comes with an aluminum guide block and a 20mm carbide-tipped drill bit that has a machined shaft to ensure minimal play within the bronze bushings of the guide block. Includes a dust extraction port and complete instructions.

This Parf guide builds a customized work-holding surface, such as a workbench top or assembly table, by templating a precise grid of 20mm holes on 96mm centers.
It gives you the same 20mm hole, 96mm grid layout as a typical multifunction table, but lets you drill that grid into a work surface you already own, which is worth it if you'd rather not buy a dedicated MFT top.
Yes, the 3mm starter bit is sized for both a standard hex chuck and a Festool Centrotec chuck, so it isn't limited to one brand of drill or driver.
Knurled-collar indexing pins hold the rule firmly against holes you've already drilled, so each new row lines up with the last as you work across the surface.
Yes, the aluminum guide block has an integrated dust port that pulls chips away from the hole as the carbide-tipped bit cuts.
