SHAKTI VIJAY SVEW/P-2 UPRIGHT DRILL PRESS

The SHAKTI VIJAY SVEW/P-2 Upright Drill Press features a 9.8-inch (249.4 mm) swing, allowing it to accommodate medium-sized workpieces for drilling operations. It has a drilling capacity of 0.98 inches (25.0 mm) specifically for mild steel, making it suitable for precise metalworking tasks. The spindle operates at a fixed speed of 86 RPM, which is optimized for drilling moderate to larger diameter holes in tougher materials. This upright drill press is composed of major assemblies including a head housing the motor and spindle drive, a column that supports and guides the table, the adjustable worktable for securing the workpiece, and a sturdy cast-iron base providing overall stability. The spindle is mounted within a quill that can be manually fed downward to drill into the material. The drill press is intended for reliable and accurate drilling, with a design that supports consistent, repeatable hole depth and diameter. Its mechanical simplicity and robust construction make it suitable for workshop environments focusing on metalworking, particularly where holes up to about 1 inch diameter in mild steel are required. The 86 RPM spindle speed is relatively low compared to variable speed models, implying effective torque delivery for tougher materials but less adaptability for very small drill bits requiring higher speeds. Overall, the SHAKTI VIJAY SVEW/P-2 delivers stable, medium-duty drilling performance ideal for those needing controlled drilling capacity and durability in a compact upright drill press configuration.
