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

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.

Great product have used them for 30 yrs porting Harley heads

It performed perfectly.

Product is exactly what we needed and expected. Have used Fordham carving products for years, and though somewhat more expensive than other brands, we know what we are getting in quality and performance. Worth the extra cost. Thanks

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!

Easy to change bits; has different size collets that are easy to change

Easy to attach.

I have a Foredom flex shaft unit and I bought two extra of these handpieces so I can easily switch between multiple tools while carving - WAY better than having to loosen, remove, pick, place, tighten a bit every time I need to change up what I am doing, especially since I am often using multiple bits with different collet/shaft diameters - makes work way more efficient to have three handpieces set up for a variety of bits. These handpieces are very well made, lightweight and reasonably ergonomic (could be better but WAY nicer than using a fat Dremel tool)

Solid construction and good feel in the hand
