Milwaukee 4272-21 Magnetic Drill Press Kit, 14-7/64 Inch Height, Electromagnetic Drill Kit
Milwaukee 4272-21 Magnetic Drill Press Kit, 14-7/64 Inch Height, Electromagnetic Drill Kit
- The Milwaukee 272-21 Magnetic Drill Press Kit is a 14-7/64-inch height electromagnetic drill kit; 13-amp, 120-volt; built for drilling steel using annular cutters or twist drill bits in a portable but robust format; includes full kit accessories.
- Features:
- 13 motor delivering two speed ranges 475 RPM for annular cutters, 730 RPM for twist drill bits helps optimize cutting speed depending on bit type.
- Electromagnetic base that provides strong holding force on steel surfaces ensures stable drilling for larger diameter or deep holes.
- Stroke (drill travel) of 5-3/4 inches allows enough depth for many through-holes in steel and cord length of 8 feet for flexible positioning.
- Includes accessories two retractable pilot pins (1 inch), one 3/4 inch Weldon to 1/2 inch chuck adapter, a carrying case, chuck key, lubrication spray bottle, safety strap complete setup for field or shop work.

Milwaukee is a major manufacturer of professional outdoor power equipment. It is known for durable trade-grade fastening equipment.
Q: What drill bits or cutters does this kit support?
A: It supports annular cutters up to 1-5/8 inch diameter using the designated Weldon taper, and twist drill bits using the included adapter; pilot pins help with setup.
Q: What is the purpose of dual-speed settings?
A: Lower speed (475 RPM) is optimized for annular cutters for better cutting with fewer tool changes; higher speed (730 RPM) works best with twist drill bits to improve cutoff and reduce binding.
Q: Does the electromagnetic base require power for activation?
A: Yes, the base uses an electromagnetic mechanism that requires the drill’s power source to energize and clamp securely to steel surfaces during drilling. (This is standard for electromagnetic drill press tools.)
