D1 Thin Steel Magnetic Drill

PRICE $1,205.00

Another cutting-edge D1 variant, the D1-TS for Thin Steel features an innovative magnet design that allows for optimal magnetic field distribution on very thin steel plates with comparable holding force to drills with standard magnets. This allows the drill to safely work on material down to 1/8” (3mm) where most other drills would be deemed unsafe or not work at all.

D1 Thin Steel MAGNETIC DRILL FEATURES:

1-7/16” (36 mm) diameter x 2" (51 mm) depth of cut
Ultra compact and light weight: 14-3/4" working height (with coolant bottle) and only 22 pounds
Adjustable cutter guard with built-in chip breaker
Through spindle coolant system with removable reservoir
Maintenance free rail guide system for long life, minimal run-out and extreme accuracy
Newly designed magent coil for holding on thin material (1/8")
Automatic slug ejection system
Designed for easy field service and repair
All aluminum parts are heat treated for rigidity
