Perché è masculine?

Outil is masculine. While it does derive from Latin, the etymology is uncertain—it may come from Latin "usitilium" (neuter, meaning "things for use") or possibly from "ustilium." Like many French nouns, particularly those ending in -il, "outil" is masculine by convention rather than by a productive grammatical rule. The gender assignment reflects historical sound changes and analogical patterns in Old French rather than a transparent etymological principle, making it effectively an exception to be memorized.
