The Makita 1-3/8" Magnetic Drill cuts holes in steel up to 1-3/8" diameter and 2" thick. The 10-amp motor delivers 850 RPM for enhanced cutting speed. The motor height adjusts for various cutting thickness. It weighs less so that the user can comfortably work in tight spaces or overhead, and for easy portability.

The industrial chuck accepts 3/4" Weldon Shank Cutters. The drill features a magnetic base, which produces powerful clamping force for increased accuracy and stability while drilling, and a dovetail slide mechanism for smooth and consistent drilling performance.

The removable guard isolates the cutting mechanism while rotating. A spindle coolant system with removable reservoir provides improved cutting performance. Removable feed handles allow for convenient storage.
