DEWALT Magnetic Drills

Magnetic Drills

A magnetic drill is a specialized portable power tool used for drilling holes in steel and other ferrous metals. You need a magnetic drill press in hard-to-access locations, like I-beams, truck beds, and vertical metal parts that are stationary. The magnetic base adheres to the ferrous metal surface and stabilizes the magnetic drill to cut the material accurately. By using a magnetic drill, you'll gain the precision and speed for drilling in tough materials when you need to drill with accuracy and consistency. Magnetic drills were initially designed for construction companies to drill a large quantity of holes in structural steel already in place, such as I-beams. Most magnetic drills are corded tools, but Milwaukee has introduced an 18V cordless model for convenient jobsite use. Our best-selling magnetic drill is the Milwaukee 1 5/8in. Compact Electromagnetic Drill that delivers fast drilling and a strong hold on 3/8in. steel. Its 13 Amp motor delivers fast drilling with annular cutters or twist drill bits.
