Built for precision drilling in production, maintenance, fabrication, and assembly environments, the Dotco 15LF085-40 Inline Drill combines a compact inline configuration with a 0.4 HP pneumatic motor to deliver dependable performance at a controlled 1,000 RPM. Its 3/8"-24 external spindle allows users to install a compatible threaded drill chuck, while the 3/8" drilling capacity provides the versatility needed for drilling a wide range of materials. The lightweight composite housing helps reduce tool weight for improved handling during extended operation, and the rear exhaust directs spent air away from the workpiece and operator for a cleaner working environment.
The inline design promotes excellent balance and control when drilling in confined spaces or on repetitive production tasks. Operating on standard 90 PSI compressed air, this pneumatic drill is well suited for industrial manufacturing, aerospace, metal fabrication, MRO, and automotive assembly applications where consistent speed and reliable performance are essential.
