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

Ive been using this for a little over 3 years now with no problems at all! I use it with the h.f. flex tool. I use 1/4 burrs with this often, and the bearings are as smooth as day one. Thats more than I can say for the h.f. pneumatic die grinders Ive had.

Works berry well even with larger burrs

I purchased this to replace an original 44B handpiece. The collet wrench is more stout than the original which was needed. So far, the handpiece operates very smoothly with minimal vibration.

I debated on buying a name brand “expensive” handle for my grinder. This will not disappoint. It is very good quality. And a good product all around. It has the collet design as opposed to the drill Chuck, so I can use my 1/4” grinder bits.

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.

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)

Great Tool

The tool is a very good size for hand fit. Works great for taking off wood. Seems to easily work when changing tools.

Awesome

great handpiece - using it on a MasterCarver flexshaft machine
