Mag base drills, or magnetic drills, are specialised tools made for drilling into metal surfaces. The electromagnetic base ensures the drill stays securely attached to the surface for clean and accurate drilling.
A magnetic base drill is used in fabrication, construction and infrastructure work where standard drill setups cannot reach or remain stable.
The magnetic hold allows for vertical or overhead use. This makes them ideal for confined or elevated areas. Operators can drill clean holes in heavy steel beams, frames or plates with reduced movement or vibration.
With magnetic drill hire, you can complete temporary works and detailed fabrication tasks without committing to large equipment.
Coates offers various models with varying cutter sizes and stroke capacities to suit your site needs.
They can be used in workshops or on-site wherever steel or iron is involved, such as fabrication, steel frames, infrastructure or modification work.
A mag base drill uses an electromagnetic base to hold it in place on steel. This allows for vertical, inverted or angled drilling with better accuracy.
Mag base drills are designed for use on ferrous materials, such as steel, iron and other magnetic metals. They may not work on non-ferrous materials like aluminium or brass.
