Feedback indicates that drill is NOT varible speed, but this title says it is, can you clarify?

Yes that's correct. In my case this drill has no variable speed. If you read the product description carefully, you can see there: ,,variable speed 0-2500 rpm..." this words means, that you can regulate the speed of your drill as you wish while pressing the switch kay. But drill has only 2500 while pressing switch key, it regulates nothing.Otherwise the quality of this item is pretty good.

Yes this is a variable-speed drill. I think some people wished there were more control at low speeds, but it works as other variable speed drills in my experience.

It's all in the trigger pull. Yes it is a variable speed drill. It is also the best hand drill I have ever owned. My first one last around twenty five plus years, using it at work almost daily.

are you using the right bit at the right speed? Is it sharp? If the motor was running prior to drilling, then you are doing something wrong. The only problem I've had with this drill press is the morse taper slipping.

there is a selector switch on the top rear of the drill that gives you the 3 speeds. there is another selector switch above the trigger that gives you either drill or torque with a selector switch range from 1- 22

There was not bit included with the drill, so I cannot say. One should make sure that very small bits are available.

This tool is on a job, so I don't have it in front of me to answer the question. I can tell you that it is a good quality tool, actually on the heavy duty side, and is a good choice for portable 1/2" drilling of any material. It does not burn through batteries as some portable tools do. The chuck is well made. We use it in construction, and we don't like flimsy tools.

You cannot use this as a drill, it does not have a built in chuck you can adjust for different bit sized and does not turn fast enough.

As slowly as you are able to finesse the trigger. The action on mine is smooth and even, not touchy, too hard or easy. I simple squeeze the trigger as I would when shooting and the drill will start to barely turn. It can be kept at that speed or squeeze a bit more and speed it up, whichever is needed. My drill will start, turn and continue to turn at speeds much lower than 200 RPM. I use this to make sure I have the bit on the mark; it is very handy.

I don't have this drill anymore, I only used it once and it was a while back so I don't recall if it has a speed lock or not sorry I know this doesn't help.

It's not a hammer drill. It is a variable speed with high and low range settings. It also has a clutch setting for release pressure.Definitely a small drill, but for it's size it's very handy, and battery charges quickly.

Wil, but you need reduce your drill speed to slow as possible and apply lubricant constantly,Remember slow speed only.

Yes but the speed is probably way to high and when you lower it you lose a lot of torque so it's far from ideal. A drill capable of 2-4000 rpm would be better.

It has three speed on the top of the drill 1.2.3. It also can vary the speed by the pull of the trigger in each of those speeds. Then it also has clutch on it so it wont strip screws or bolts if it is set right

If your drill bit is sharp and if you use a lubricant, there's no reason why you can't drill at 2500 RPM's Let your drill bit cool between holes or cool it with water between holes. (Just dip the bit in a can of water.) If you find that the bit is seizing, sharpen the bit or slow down the RPM's a little. "Cool Tool" is an excellent lubricant for aluminum. Regardless of the speed you use. The bottom of the hole will need to be deburred. Use a fine metal file.

It is not variable speed. I used it for some flagstone and stone veneer. Cut was excellent.

In a word.....No. The output of this drill is rotary motion.....like a regular drill except it has a high speed "pounding/hammering" component too. It is for use with carbide-tipped drills ... and it drills round holes in concrete quickly. That is ALL is is good for. Sorry.

it varies from 0 to 6800rpm in less than a second. ;Dvariable speed would have been a feature i would appreciated a lot and would have made this tool even more useful. but still i'm using it a lot.
