Cordless Straight Drill Proxxon 29 800 700 g, Li-Ion 2.6 Ah, 270 mm width

The Proxxon Cordless Straight Drill 29 800 is a compact, battery-powered straight drill engineered for precision work in confined or hard-to-reach areas. Powered by a 2.6 Ah lithium‑ion battery and weighing approximately 700 g, the tool offers a slim 270 mm body width and a straight drill format that supports stable handling during detailed drilling, milling, grinding, polishing, cleaning, cutting, engraving and scribing tasks. The tool is designed for applications where access and concentric accuracy are critical, with a high-revving motor and electronic speed control to maintain torque across a wide speed range.

Advantages

The drill provides high concentric accuracy through a double-row ball bearing and a precision ground steel spindle. Six interchangeable triple-slit steel collets (sizes 1, 1.5, 2, 2.4, 3 and 3.2 mm) ensure secure clamping and true running of bits and cutters. Electronic variable speed control delivers consistent torque even at low speeds, supporting fine work and high-revving applications. The included 20 mm collar enables use with drill and horizontal stands, expanding fixtures and guide options while preserving instrument balance and ergonomics for extended tasks.

Suitable for

• Precision drilling in model making and miniature construction
• Electrical and plumbing work in confined spaces
• Milling, grinding and polishing of small components
• Cleaning, cutting, engraving and scribing on a variety of materials
• Workshop fixtures requiring use with drill or horizontal stands

Key specifications

• Weight: approximately 700 g
• Overall body width: 270 mm (straight drill format)
• Collets included: six triple-slit steel collets — 1, 1.5, 2, 2.4, 3 and 3.2 mm
• Spindle: precision ground steel spindle with double-row ball bearing support
• Speed control: electronic variable speed for high-revving performance and torque retention at low speeds
• Collet collar diameter: 20 mm for stand compatibility

How to use

Charge the lithium‑ion battery fully before initial use and insert it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Select the appropriate triple-slit collet for the required bit diameter and secure it in the chuck. Start the drill at low speed to check bit runout and then increase speed as needed using the electronic speed control to match the material and cutting tool. For tasks requiring maximum concentricity, use the precision ground spindle and appropriate collet; when needed, mount the drill in a 20 mm collar-equipped drill or horizontal stand to stabilize workpieces or guide tools for repeatable operations.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting, grinding and polishing accessories rated for the drill’s speed range; avoid excessive axial pressure to preserve bearing life and concentric accuracy. Regularly inspect collets and replace them if worn. For highest precision, run a test cut on scrap material to set speed and feed, and when working in confined spaces, ensure adequate illumination and secure workpiece clamping.
