Overview
The VEVOR Magnetic Drill is a corded electric magnetic base drill press weighing 28.2 pounds, drawing 8.9 amps at 120 volts and running at 810 RPM.
Magnetic drills like this one clamp to steel surfaces with an electromagnetic base, letting the drill work on vertical or overhead metal that a standard handheld or benchtop drill can't reach. VEVOR sells this within its metalworking equipment line, but the listing doesn't specify chuck size or magnetic holding force, so buyers should confirm those figures against their material thickness before ordering.
- Magnetic base drill press
- Corded 120V, 8.9 amps
- 810 RPM drilling speed
- Weighs 28.2 pounds
Who it's for
Fits metalworkers and fabricators drilling into structural steel, beams or plate where a magnetic base lets the drill hold to vertical or overhead surfaces. Not a fit for anyone drilling wood, plastic or non-magnetic material, since the magnetic base only grips ferrous metal.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Magnetic base holds the drill on vertical or overhead steel
- Runs on standard 120V power, no compressor or battery needed
- Rated 4.2 stars across 380 ratings
- Only grips ferrous metal, not usable on wood or non-magnetic material
- At 28.2 pounds it's not a portable handheld tool
- Chuck size and magnetic holding force aren't listed
Performance notes
The magnetic base draws current to clamp to a steel surface, holding the drill's weight and cutting torque in place during the cut. At 810 RPM this speed suits larger diameter bits on thicker steel rather than fast, small hole drilling.
