Built for controlled drilling in production, maintenance, and assembly work, the Dotco 15LF083-40 Inline Drill pairs a compact inline body with a 0.4 HP pneumatic motor and 3,300 RPM free speed for clean, repeatable hole-making. Its 3/8″-24 external threaded termination accepts a compatible threaded chuck or collet, while the composite housing helps keep the tool light and balanced for repetitive drilling tasks.
With rear exhaust, a standard lock-off safety lever, and performance rated at 90 PSI, this 15LF Series drill is a strong fit for aerospace, appliance, automotive, fabrication, and MRO environments where speed, access, and tool control all matter.

- Industrial maintenance and MRO drilling tasks.
FAQs:
- Q: Does the 15LF083-40 include a drill chuck?A: This model uses a 3/8″-24 external threaded termination. A compatible chuck or collet setup should be selected separately based on the drilling application.
- Q: What does rear exhaust mean?A: Rear exhaust means spent air exits toward the back of the tool, helping keep air flow away from the drilling point and work surface.
- Q: What air setup is required?A: The drill is rated at 90 PSI / 620 kPa and uses a 1/4″ air inlet with a 1/4″ minimum hose I.D.
- Q: Where does a 3,300 RPM inline drill fit best?A: It suits controlled drilling tasks that need more spindle speed than low-RPM models while still maintaining inline balance for repetitive work.
