Air drill

The air drill is very compact and works at high speeds. They have the same mode of operation as electric drills but are smaller and lighter. Compactness makes them more suitable for work in car workshops.

Air drill

The main drive of an air drill is compressed air that is supplied via a quick-connect fitting. The pressurized air rotates the blades of the air motor and transfers this rotation to the chuck of the drill. The speed of rotation depends on the amount of compressed air that is dosed via the speed regulator. Drill bits, grinding parts and brushes for polishing and cleaning can be placed on the chuck.

Air drill elements

An air drill has some important advantages over the more common electric power drill. With the appropriate attachment, a hole can be drilled, grind, polished and cleaned. Unlike an electric drill, this one does not pose a risk of creating a spark, which is important for working around flammable liquids or gasoline tanks. Also, it does not heat up with prolonged use.
