Ingersoll Rand 8245-B30-3 is a Bant-A-Matic Series Self-Feed Air Drill built for repetitive production drilling and fixture-mounted machining where controlled spindle feed and retract movement are required. This model combines a 0.25 HP pneumatic motor with a 2,700 RPM free speed and single gear reduction. The -3 configuration provides a 3 in. (76 mm) stroke, giving automated fixtures additional spindle travel for drilling cycles that require an extended feed stroke. The model is listed with a 3/16 in. capacity.
The Bant-A-Matic self-feed mechanism uses a double-acting air piston for controlled forward and retract strokes. Needle-valve controls allow adjustment of the forward and retract strokes, while the adjustment screw provides infinite stroke-length settings. A built-in four-way valve enables both manual and remote operation, making the drill suitable for integration into production equipment. Ball-bearing spindle support provides precision spindle guidance, and the muffled exhaust helps reduce operating noise. The 8245-B30-3 provides 90 lb (400 N) thrust at 90 PSI, uses 1.5 ft³/cycle (42 L/cycle) of air at working speed, and has a 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) standard chuck capacity.

Applications:
- Production drilling — performing repetitive holemaking operations where controlled pneumatic feed and retract movement are required.
- Fixture-mounted machining — integrating the drill into dedicated production fixtures where a 3 in. stroke is required.
- Metal fabrication — drilling compatible steel components within the manufacturer's material-specific capacity ratings.
- Secondary machining — adding repeatable drilling cycles to manufacturing equipment without continuous manual feed control.
- Automated drilling equipment — using the four-way valve for manual or remote operation in suitable pneumatic control systems.
FAQs:
- Q: What is the free speed of the 8245-B30-3?
A: The 8245-B30-3 has a 2,700 RPM free speed. - Q: What does the “-3” suffix indicate?
A: The -3 configuration identifies the 3 in. (76 mm) stroke version of the 8245-B30 model family. - Q: What does single gear reduction mean?
