GDM790BR 5 Speed Radial Bench Pillar Drill

The Sealey GDM790BR is a 5-speed radial bench pillar drill engineered for precision drilling applications in professional workshops and industrial environments. Built with heavy-duty construction and a powerful 550W motor, this bench drill combines versatility with robust performance for demanding metalworking and fabrication tasks. The radial arm design is a standout feature, controlled by a rack and pinion assembly that enables fine positioning of the drill bit for accurate work. This radial capability allows off-table drilling and angle drilling operations, with a maximum throat depth of 420mm and spindle centre to column distance of 420mm. The 16mm capacity chuck with No. 2 Morse taper accepts a wide range of drill bits, whilst the 80mm spindle travel provides ample depth for most drilling operations. Safety is prioritised with a no-volt release switch that prevents accidental starting, plus a pulley cover cut-out microswitch for operator protection. The five-speed configuration offers a range from 500 to 2450rpm, allowing operators to select the optimal speed for different materials and drill bit sizes. The drill features a Ø310mm working table and substantial 345 x 215mm base for stability during operation. Ideal for engineering workshops, metal fabrication shops, and maintenance facilities requiring precision radial drilling capabilities. The mortise attachment (Model No. MA10) is available separately for enhanced functionality, and a floor-standing variant (Model No. GDM1630FR) is also offered for different workshop configurations.
