Sealey GDM1630FR 5-Speed Radial Floor Pillar Drill

Overview

The Sealey GDM1630FR is a 5-speed radial floor pillar drill designed for professional users who require flexibility, precision, and the ability to perform angled or offset drilling operations. This industrial-grade drill press features a radial arm that enables drilling outside the column area, making it ideal for oversized or irregularly shaped workpieces.

Design and Build Quality

With a Ø70mm column and a cast iron base measuring 420 x 250mm, the GDM1630FR is built for stability and reliability. The radial arm assembly--moved via a rack and pinion mechanism--allows the drill head to travel horizontally, enhancing drilling capacity beyond conventional pillar drills. Its robust castings, smooth feed operation, and adjustable worktable support accurate results across a variety of materials.
