Remember when power tools were actually powerful?
WEN’s 8-inch swing, 5-speed drill press is small but powerful enough to drill
through metal, wood, plastics, and other materials. Max drill capacity is 1/2”
in 1” thick cast iron. When you need accurate, repeatable holes, this tool will
do the job more conveniently and precisely than a hand held drill. The perfect
size for the shop and portable enough to take to the job. Constructed with a
rigid frame consisting of cast iron: head, table, and base ensuring accurate
holes. Its powerful induction motor features ball bearings for an extended life
and it all comes together with smooth and balanced performance even at high
speeds. The ½” chuck with JT33 spindle taper gives you versatility with a
variety of bits. Worktable bevels 45° left and right for those tricky
operations for the perfect right angles consistently. The base contains
predrilled holes for mounting onto a bench or work stand. The slotted table
allows for mounting clamps and vises for effective workholding. Since 1951, WEN
has proudly produced innovative powered tools focused on value delivering
meaningful features that will help you complete and enjoy the work as much as
the project. Remember when you could drill holes in any material with ease?
Remember WEN.
Reviews:
A great simple press. I
needed a press to machine 6016 aluminum to finish lower AR receivers. To do
this I needed to make straight holes and I needed enough power to get through
the alloy. I put the belt on the second to highest torque setting, which would
mean the second to slowest speed and the press worked great.
Everything on this press is rough. It's not a work of art, but it is strong, relatively light and it will make holes. If that's all you need then look no further.
When I use this press I clamp it to my work bench, then put it under for storage. A larger press would make moving it much more difficult.
