Foredom 44T Handpiece Foredom Flexible Shaft Grinders - H.44T

This was a replacement for one that took 45 years to die. The new grip design is even better- will pass it on to my grandchildren some day!

Excellent hand tool

Youll find out why it costs so much once you take it out of the box.

Feels indestructible.

Bought this to be able to use 1/4 shank carbide bits with my Foredom pendant motor. Have previously only used their smaller 3/32 bits for working jewelry, so I wasnt sure how it would handle 1/4 bits. So far it has been amazing. Am using carbide bits to remove some serious metal from an aluminum intake manifold. The 44T has performed well. Tons of power, great speed, and easy to hold and control. Much better than my pneumatic die grinder, and the Foredom is about 90% quieter. After about an hour of solid grinding, the handpiece and motor do get fairly warm, so I have been giving them a periodic rest. But as I mentioned I am really grinding hard, and I still think this is doing a great job for a device thats truly intended for lighter duty work.

Ive been using this for a little over 3 years now with no problems at all! I use it with the h.f. flex tool. I use 1/4 burrs with this often, and the bearings are as smooth as day one. Thats more than I can say for the h.f. pneumatic die grinders Ive had.

Fits my Harbor Freight engraver/grinder and makes working on my projects so much easier.

Last one lasted 10 years, hope this one lasts as long.

I purchased this to replace an original 44B handpiece. The collet wrench is more stout than the original which was needed. So far, the handpiece operates very smoothly with minimal vibration.

Seems well built .
