SB1125 19-1/2" Variable-Speed Drill Press
A high-performance drill press with a powerful motor and variable-speed control.
This smooth-running South Bend SB1125 19-1/2" Floor Drill Press features a two-range variable spindle speed control ranges between 50 to 2000 RPM, monitored via a digital readout. This wide range of speeds makes it perfect for both woodworkers as well as metalworkers.
The torque created by the 1 horsepower motor combined with the low spindle speeds allows for an impressive 1-9/16" capacity for drilling mild steel.
The 16" by 20" precision-ground cast-iron table has two 5/8" T-slots, with 360° table positioning around column, and hand-crank enabled rack-and-pinion table elevation. The table can be swung to the back when drilling tall work pieces; securing it to the cast-iron base using the two 5/8" T-slots.
The SB1125 features a full 5-1/2" of spindle travel with, MT#3 spindle, and comes with a 5/8" capacity drill chuck.
The complete and easy-to-read SB1125 manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information.
