Ingersoll Rand 8245-B8-1 is a Bant-A-Matic Series Self-Feed Air Drill designed for repetitive drilling and secondary machining applications where controlled pneumatic feed and retract movement are required. This model combines a 0.25 HP pneumatic motor with a 900 RPM free speed and double gear reduction. The 8245-B8-1 provides a 1-1/4 in. (32 mm) stroke and a 3/16 in. nominal drilling capacity in SAE 1213 steel.
The self-feed system uses compressed air for both spindle rotation and feed/control functions. A double-acting air piston provides controlled forward and retract strokes, while needle-valve controls allow adjustment of the feed and retract rates. A built-in four-way valve supports manual or remote operation, and the adjustment screw provides infinite stroke-length settings. Ball-bearing spindle support provides precision and long service life, while the muffled exhaust helps reduce operating noise. The drill uses a 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) standard chuck, a 1/8 in. NPT male air inlet, and a 1/4 in. recommended hose I.D.

Applications:
- Production drilling — performing repetitive holemaking operations with controlled pneumatic feed and retract movement.
- Metal fabrication — drilling compatible steel components and assemblies within the manufacturer's specified capacity.
- Secondary machining — automating repetitive drilling operations as part of a production process.
- Fixture-mounted drilling — integrating the self-feed drill into dedicated fixtures where consistent stroke control is required.
- Industrial machining systems — using the tool individually or in conjunction with other pneumatic or electric tools where its speed, capacity, and feed characteristics are appropriate.
FAQs:
