The PST Tripod drill is engineered with Linear Shaft Ways and UHMW Machined Slides. The drill body will raise and lower without binding providing operator precise control for years of service. Drill alignment has been further enhanced with the drill mounting alignment plate for increased accuracy. This is the only tripod glass drill offered in U.S. market with these enhanced features. It is completely portable so it can be used at the shop or on the jobsite. It plugs into any 110V AC circuit. The drill can easily be positioned directly over any area to be drilled. The non-skid rubber leg caps hold the machine firmly to the drilling surface. It has a heavy-duty motor with a 1/2" ball bearing supported chuck to eliminate wobble. Quick adjustment pre-sets the desired drilling depth slightly less than the thickness of the glass, stopping within a fraction of an inch of the bottom surface, so that the last little bit may be drilled slowly, to reduce chipping of the glass. This is extremely important when drilling mirrors. Variable speed adjustment allows for use with most Tube Drills (Brass, Steel or Diamond Types) along with Spearpoint Drills. Our Prismatic Carbide Tipped Drills can only be used at a reduced speed. It comes complete with a chuck key and 8' (2.4 m) power cord.
Other features:
Most accurate design on the market, superior engineering to extend service life.
For use with diamond, steel or brass tube drills including spearpoint and prismatic drills.
Dual adjustment system for quick and micro depth adjustments - Reduces glass chipping.
Note: We recommend using our ground fault circuit interrupt device on all glass drilling machines.
