Take bench-top precision to the next level

Rethink drilling accuracy with the WEN 4208T 8-Inch 5-Speed Drill Press. This compact benchtop model hides a sturdy cast-iron frame and a 2.3-amp induction motor, delivering balanced performance that minimizes vibration as you work through wood, metal, and plastics. The result is steadier holes and repeatable depth, even when your project demands longer runs between bit changes. By prioritizing stability and control, this drill press helps you move from rough drafts to polished results with less effort at the bench.

Versatility at a glance

Five selectable speeds (740, 1100, 1530, 2100, 3140 RPM) make it easy to tailor the feed rate to your material and bit type. The 1/2-inch keyed chuck with JT33 taper accepts bits from 1/20" to 1/2" in diameter, while the 2-inch spindle travel supports deeper, more consistent drilling. An 8-inch swing expands the range of workpieces you can tackle without repositioning your setup.

• Powerful 2.3A motor delivers steady torque for wood, metal, and plastics.
• Beveled table up to 45° left or right for angled drilling.
• Onboard chuck key storage keeps your setup efficient and clutter-free.

Built for accuracy and safety in a compact footprint

The easy-to-read, locking depth stop lets you drill to a consistent depth, improving repeatability across multiple holes. The base features mounting holes to secure the press to a bench or stand, while the slotted table accommodates clamps and vises for reliable workholding. Despite its small footprint, the design emphasizes stability to help you stay focused on your project rather than your tools.

• Beveled table supports precise positioning for jigs and guides.
• 5-speed control helps optimize cutting speed and hole quality.
• Replacement parts and a helpful customer support line help keep you in action.

Whether you’re crafting small wood projects, fabricating metal brackets, or drilling clean holes in plastic, the WEN 4208T offers a dependable, space-conscious solution. It pairs a classic cast-iron build with modern features to support accurate, repeatable results at your workstation.
