The SRH is Foredom's most popular flex shaft model, the SR hang-up style motor, equipped with a longer (63") square drive shaft and heavy duty protective sheath with liner/silencer.
Heavy duty flex shafts are the ultimate power tools for deburring, buffing, grinding, polishing and metal finishing of any kind with larger rotary accessories. They are great for large scale woodcarving and sculpting applications with carbide or steel burs and larger mounted grinding stones. While this 115V version can be used with the FCT, SCT, or EM speed controllers, since it has a 1/4" square drive, it can only be used with handpieces that accept the 1/4" square drive. At the time of this writing, June 2022 - that is limited to the 25H, 30H and 44HT handpieces. CSA listed. 2 Year Limited Warranty on Motor and Control. Made in USA.
The SRH, heavy duty model has exactly the same motor specifications as Foredom's SR 1/6 HP Flex Shaft and runs in forward and reverse rotation at speeds up to 18,000 RPM. It combines the most important features you expect — power, reversibility, reliability, and versatility, all in one motor. The SRH comes equipped with a motor bale for hanging, and a 63" long, square drive shaft and heavy duty protective sheath.
Features a forward / reverse switch which is not only great for left-handers, but here's why right-handers will want it too:
- Reverse helps to keep dust and other debris flying away from right handed users.
- Alternating motor direction helps to extend the life of certain abrasives.
- Reverse helps with accomplishing symmetrical grinding and carving techniques.
- Left handed users have more control of the cutting tool.
- Reverse makes it easier to back out stuck drill bits.
- Alternating motor direction makes it easier and faster to polish metals.
