About the Wheeler Rex 908094 Center Drill, Pilot Drill for the Hot Tap Drilling Machine

The 908094 Center drill for the Hot Tap 8100, 8200, and 8300 drilling machines from Wheeler Rex uses this drill to make the beginning pilot hole with the highly thought out and well designed hot tap specialty tool for the piping professional. This drill helps in the process by allowing for tapping into a line while under pressure and then being able to add a line, drain the system or add a sensor. That ability is essential when the valve cannot be shut to stop the flow. The ingenious design of the wet tap tool allows for drilling into active water, air, gas and sewer lines up to 250PSI wither in a vertical, horizontal, or other pipe orientation. This powerful, cleverly designed manual ratcheting tool pilots allowing the hot tap to cut holes from ¾ inch to 2 inches in diameter in the following kinds of pipe: copper, steel, cast iron, ductile iron, asbestos cement, C900, PVC, polyethylene and other types of plastic pipe by choosing the proper adapters for the valve and appropriate size cutters for the type of pipe depending upon its hardness. Comes standard with the 8100, 8200 and 8300, and as a replacement drill.
