About Magnetic Drill Machine

A magnetic drill machine, also called a mag drill or magnetic core drill, has an electromagnetic base that clamps the drill firmly onto steel so holes can be drilled on site in beams, columns, plates and structures. Steel fabricators, structural erection teams, shipyards, bridge and railway workshops and maintenance crews use it where the job cannot be taken to a pillar drill.

Choose by the largest hole you need to cut. Mag drills are rated for a maximum annular cutter diameter, for example 35 mm, 50 mm or 85 mm, and a smaller twist drill capacity. Larger capacity models have more power and weigh more. Check the motor power, the stroke length, the magnet adhesion force and whether the machine has variable speed or reverse for tapping. Cordless models suit work at height or sites without power. Use annular cutters with the right shank and coolant for clean holes. Always clamp on clean, flat steel of adequate thickness, use the safety strap supplied, and never use the magnet on a surface with paint, rust or gaps that reduce its holding force.

We list Makita, Milwaukee, Dongcheng, Metabo, Ralli Wolf and Xtra Power magnetic drills at prices that include GST, with a GST invoice on every order and delivery across India. Fabricators and contractors buying several machines can ask for a bulk quotation.

Questions buyers ask

What is an annular cutter and why use it on a mag drill?

An annular cutter cuts only a ring of metal and leaves a solid core, so it makes large holes faster and with less power than a twist drill.

Which capacity magnetic drill should I buy?

Pick a model whose maximum cutter diameter is a little above the largest hole you drill regularly. 35 mm suits light structural work, while 50 mm and above suits heavy fabrication.

Why is a safety strap needed?

If power fails or the magnet loses grip, the strap stops the machine from falling. Always fit it, especially on vertical or overhead work.

Do prices include GST?

Yes. Prices include GST and every order gets a GST invoice.
