Description

Pneumatic Straight Drill (Die Grinder), 3/8-Inch Chuck, 2500 RPM

Brief Overview

This is a compact, straight-handle pneumatic drill designed for controlled drilling and light grinding in tight working spaces. The 2500 RPM free speed provides excellent precision for detailed metalwork, woodworking, and applications where access is limited. Rear air exhaust deflection keeps debris and air blast away from your work area, improving visibility and control. For shops needing versatile drilling capability, complement this tool with a reversible air drill at 1600 RPM for more demanding production work, or consider a compact die grinder for finer finishing tasks.

Key Features

  • 3/8-Inch Keyed Chuck: Secure grip on standard drill bits and accessories
  • Low Operating Speed (2500 RPM): Ideal for precision drilling without bit wandering or heat buildup
  • Straight Handle Design: Natural grip and control for detailed work
  • Lever-Actuated Speed Control: Responsive throttle for responsive on-the-fly speed adjustment
  • Rear Exhaust Deflection: Air discharge directed away from work surface for cleaner operations
  • Compact Profile: Fits into confined spaces and overhead work areas
  • Included Accessories: Chuck key and hex key supplied

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • Consistent Demand: Pneumatic straight drills are essential shop staples with predictable turnover in job shops and tool rental fleets
  • Competitive Pricing Potential: Lower operating cost than electric alternatives (no power cords, no electrical infrastructure required)
  • Reliable Durability: Pneumatic tools require minimal maintenance, reducing warranty claims
  • Complement to Your Portfolio: Pairs well with pneumatic grinders and angle drills for shop bundles or rental packages

Ideal Applications

Metal Fabrication & Machining: Drilling holes in sheet metal, aluminum, and steel with minimal heat generation.

Confined Space Work: Overhead drilling, interior cavity work, or tight assembly areas where larger tools won't fit.

Woodworking: Clean hole drilling in hardwoods without splintering or excessive torque.

Tool & Die Shops: Precision hole work where speed control and accuracy are critical.

Technical Notes

The 2500 RPM speed is optimized for control rather than speed—ideal for operators who prioritize accuracy over rapid material removal. Air consumption of 200 L/min is moderate, making this tool suitable for standard compressor setups (typically 4–6 HP minimum recommended for continuous duty).

The keyed chuck requires the supplied chuck key for bit changes; ensure the key is kept accessible in your shop.
