Foredom’s Chisel Handpiece is for carving in all types of wood, plastic, plaster and soft carving stone. It connects to a key tip quick disconnect flexible shaft which can be powered by an M.SR, M.TX, M.LX flex shaft motor or other motor that can power a key tip quick disconnect flexible shaft (a Flexade can also be used!). Itis a reciprocating ‘hammer’ type handpiece that requires a light pressure to start the hammering chisel action. It has a stroke length of 1/8″ (3.2mm). It has a rugged textured plastic barrel & tapered aluminum front end.
MUST BE USED IN FORWARD MOTOR DIRECTION ONLY – if you are using it with a motor that can go in reverse.
TIP: We recommend using this handpiece with Series TX and LX or Series SR motors in forward rotation only.
For optimum performance use between 1,000 – 8,000 RPM.
TIP: We also recommend using a dial speed control, in place of a foot pedal, to run steady within the recommended lower end of the speed range. Carvers can set and maintain any desired speed when connected to a dial control.
