Built for repetitive production drilling, assembly work, and industrial maintenance, the Ingersoll Rand 5AKST4 Pistol Grip Air Drill combines a 3,000 RPM free speed with 30.1 in-lbs (3.4 Nm) of maximum working torque. This speed-to-torque balance supports controlled small-hole drilling while maintaining productive cycle speeds for manufacturing, fabrication, and repair operations.
The 1/4" (6 mm) bit holder capacity accepts compatible drilling tooling, while 17 CFM (480 L/min) air consumption helps buyers match the drill to their compressed-air supply. With a compact 6.8" (173 mm) length and 2.0 lb (0.9 kg) weight, the 5AKST4 provides a manageable pistol-grip configuration for repeated handheld work around production fixtures and equipment.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life and lessen repair costs use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator (FRLs)
Made in USA: ![]()
Applications:
- Production and assembly stations performing repetitive small-hole drilling.
- Metal fabrication operations using compatible 1/4" drilling tooling.
- Manufacturing processes where moderate-to-high spindle speed supports efficient hole-making cycles.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO work involving machinery, fixtures, and equipment components.
- Professional fabrication and repair shops equipped with an appropriately sized compressed-air system.
FAQs:
- Q: How much torque does the Ingersoll Rand 5AKST4 provide?
A: The 5AKST4 is rated at 30.1 in-lbs (3.4 Nm) of maximum working torque. Its 3,000 RPM free speed provides a useful balance between drilling speed and torque for compatible production applications. - Q: What size tooling does the 5AKST4 accept?
A: The maximum bit holder capacity is 1/4" (6 mm). Select tooling that fits the holder correctly and matches the workpiece material and drilling requirements. - Q: How much compressed air does the 5AKST4 consume?
A: The manufacturer specification table lists air consumption at 17 CFM (480 L/min). The facility air system should maintain sufficient airflow at the tool during operation. - Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 5AKST4 reversible?
A: No. The 5AKST4 is part of Ingersoll Rand's non-reversible 5 Series pistol-grip drill range and is configured for forward drilling. - Q: How does the 5AKST4 compare with the faster 5AJST4?
A: The 5AKST4 runs at 3,000 RPM and provides 30.1 in-lbs of maximum working torque, while the 5AJST4 runs at 4,500 RPM with 20 in-lbs. The 5AKST4 therefore trades some rotational speed for additional working torque while retaining the same 1/4" bit holder capacity.
