Milescraft 1348 Drill Mate PRO – Heavy-Duty Portable Drill Press Guide, 1/2 Inch Chuck, Angled or Straight Drilling

Milescraft Drill Mate PRO is a professional, portable drill press guide that brings precision drilling to large or awkward pieces. Built with all-metal construction for durability, it features a 1/2 inch keyed chuck and a dual ball bearing design for smooth, controlled operation. The extruded guide head uses bronze bushings to keep the drill bit on target, while centered alignment lines on the base help you hit the mark with repeatable accuracy.

Designed to tackle projects where a fixed drill press can’t reach, the Drill Mate PRO doubles as a portable drilling station. The base includes V-grooves to stabilize round stock and a pair of centering pins for versatile centering options. An independent depth stop, with its own guide bar, keeps drilling depth consistent, and a dual spring system adds balance and control. When you need to switch bits or set depth, the guide head locks in place to prevent drift. The wide base and rubber feet minimize movement and protect your work surface, while the included non-slip base pads further reduce slips during operation.
