Built for production drilling, assembly work, and industrial maintenance where forward and reverse operation is useful, the Ingersoll Rand 5RALST6 Reversible Pistol Grip Air Drill delivers 35.4 in-lbs (4.0 Nm) of maximum working torque at a 2,000 RPM free speed. This combination provides useful drilling speed for repetitive hole-making while retaining controlled torque for compatible fabrication, repair, and assembly tasks.
The 3/8" (10 mm) bit holder capacity accommodates commonly used drilling tooling, while 17 CFM (480 L/min) air consumption helps buyers match the drill to the available compressed-air supply. Its reversible trigger-start configuration adds flexibility for applications requiring a change in rotation direction, and the compact 2.2 lb tool is well suited to repeated handheld use at production and maintenance workstations.

- Trigger-start configuration places tool actuation conveniently at the pistol-grip handle.
- Compact 6.2" (157 mm) length with chuck helps with maneuverability around fixtures, components, and workpieces.
- 2.2 lb (1.0 kg) weight with chuck keeps overall tool mass manageable during repetitive handheld work.
- 0.8" (21 mm) side-to-center distance allows drilling relatively close to adjacent surfaces and workpiece edges.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life, and lessen repair costs, use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator (FRL)
Made in USA: ![]()
Applications:
- Production and assembly stations performing repetitive drilling with 3/8" capacity tooling.
- Metal fabrication operations requiring a compact pneumatic drill with forward and reverse capability.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO work involving machinery, fixtures, and equipment components.
- Manufacturing workstations where a 2,000 RPM pneumatic drill matches the required drilling process.
- Professional repair and fabrication shops equipped with a compressed-air system capable of supporting the specified airflow.
FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 5RALST6 reversible?
A: Yes. The 5RALST6 is listed as a reversible trigger-start pistol-grip air drill, allowing the operator to change the direction of rotation when the application requires it. - Q: What is the maximum working torque of the 5RALST6?
A: The manufacturer specification table lists maximum working torque at 35.4 in-lbs (4.0 Nm). The drill operates at 2,000 RPM free speed, providing a useful balance of speed and controlled torque. - Q: What size tooling does the 5RALST6 accept?
A: The maximum bit holder capacity is 3/8" (10 mm). Select tooling that fits the holder correctly and is appropriate for the material and drilling operation. - Q: How much compressed air does the 5RALST6 use?
A: Air consumption is specified at 17 CFM (480 L/min). The air supply should be capable of maintaining sufficient airflow at the tool during operation. - Q: Is the 5RALST6 compact enough for work around fixtures?
A: The drill measures 6.2" (157 mm) long with the chuck and has a 0.8" (21 mm) side-to-center distance. These dimensions can help when positioning the tool around fixtures or close to adjacent surfaces.
