Built for production drilling, assembly work, and industrial maintenance, the Ingersoll Rand 6ALST4 Pistol Grip Air Drill delivers 64.6 in-lbs (7.3 Nm) of maximum working torque with a 2,150 RPM free speed. This combination provides more turning force than higher-speed models in the same range while maintaining useful drilling speed for repetitive fabrication and production tasks.
The 1/4" (6 mm) bit holder capacity accommodates compatible drilling tooling, while 20 CFM (560 L/min) air consumption helps buyers match the drill to the available compressed-air system. At 2.2 lb (1.0 kg), the compact trigger-start pistol-grip configuration keeps the tool manageable for repeated handheld drilling around workpieces and fixtures.
Type: Pistol Grip Air Drill | Series: 6 Series | Model: 6ALST4 | Actuation: Trigger Start | Max. Working Torque: 64.6 in-lbs (7.3 Nm) | Free Speed: 2,150 RPM | Bit Holder Capacity: 1/4" (6 mm) | Air Consumption: 20 CFM (560 L/min) | Weight with Chuck: 2.2 lb (1.0 kg) | Length with Chuck: 7.0" (178 mm) | Side-to-Center Distance: 0.8" (21 mm)
Features:
- 2,150 RPM free speed balances drilling speed with increased torque for compatible production applications.
- 64.6 in-lbs (7.3 Nm) maximum working torque provides useful turning force as drilling resistance increases.
- 1/4" (6 mm) bit holder capacity accepts compatible tooling for drilling and production work.
- Trigger-start configuration places tool actuation conveniently at the pistol-grip handle.
- 7.0" (178 mm) length with chuck provides a compact profile for maneuvering around fixtures and components.
- 2.2 lb (1.0 kg) weight with chuck keeps overall tool mass manageable during repetitive handheld operations.
- 0.8" (21 mm) side-to-center distance allows drilling relatively close to workpiece edges and adjacent surfaces.

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 drilling with smaller-diameter tooling.
- Metal fabrication work where a balance of rotational speed and working torque is required.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO drilling on machinery, fixtures, and equipment components.
- Manufacturing operations using pneumatic tooling for repetitive hole-making processes.
- Professional repair and fabrication shops equipped with a compressed-air supply capable of supporting the tool's airflow requirement.
FAQs:
- Q: How much torque does the Ingersoll Rand 6ALST4 provide?
A: The 6ALST4 is rated at 64.6 in-lbs (7.3 Nm) of maximum working torque. Its 2,150 RPM free speed provides a balance between rotational speed and torque for compatible drilling operations. - Q: What size tooling can the 6ALST4 accept?
A: The maximum bit holder capacity is 1/4" (6 mm). Tooling should fit the holder correctly and be selected according to the material and drilling requirements. - Q: How much compressed air does the 6ALST4 consume?
A: The manufacturer specification table lists air consumption at 20 CFM (560 L/min). The compressed-air system should be capable of maintaining sufficient airflow to the drill during use. - Q: What are the size and weight of the 6ALST4?
A: With the chuck, the drill weighs 2.2 lb (1.0 kg) and measures 7.0" (178 mm) long. Its side-to-center distance is 0.8" (21 mm), which is useful when positioning the drill near an adjacent surface. - Q: How does the 6ALST4 differ from faster 1/4" 6 Series drills?
A: The 6ALST4 trades some rotational speed for additional working torque. For example, the supplied table places it below the 3,100 and 3,950 RPM models in speed while providing a higher 64.6 in-lbs maximum working torque.
