At Toolden we have a range of powerful pillar drills for sale from top brands such as Sealey, Draper Scheppach and more. Pillar drills allow users to quickly drill precise and consistent holes in a range of materials. Their design features a sliding drill mounted on a metal column with a clamp. The drill height/ action is controlled with a rotating handle that moves the drill towards the workpiece. Our range includes features like fully adjustable clamps, depth stops, no volt safety release switches and more.
No-volt safety release switches are an important safety feature found in many pillar drills. These switches prevent the machine from starting up inadvertently if the power fails or is switched off at the mains. When the power comes back on again, the machine will remain switched off until the user manually turns it back on, greatly reducing injuries as a result of unexpected drill actuation.
Depth stop
A depth stop is a feature found in many pillar drills that allows the user to set the maximum depth that the bit will drill into the material. This is useful when drilling multiple holes to the same depth, as it ensures consistency and accuracy. Choosing a pillar drill with a depth stop feature can save time and improve accuracy when drilling multiple holes to the same depth.
Chuck guards
A chuck guard is a handy safety feature that can be found on many of the pillar drills we stock. It is a clear shield that covers the chuck and drill bit, protecting the user from flying debris and accidental contact with the rotating parts. Chuck guards are typically made of clear plastic or Perspex, ensuring the user can still see the workpiece when drilling. Since our range of pillar drills are extremely powerful machines, choosing one with a chuck guard should be an essential consideration to ensure you are properly protected when using them.
