Walter Icecut 250 Portable Magnetic Drill Press with Tapping Function

The Ultimate Portable Mag Drill for Fabricators

When you are out in the field or moving around a busy shop, you need a magnetic drill that doesn't weigh you down but still packs enough punch to get through thick steel plate. The Walter Icecut 250 is built exactly for that purpose. Weighing in at only 34.1 lbs, it is light enough to carry up a ladder or position onto a truck frame without straining your back. But don't let the weight fool you—this machine is a beast. With a powerful 2-speed gearbox, it chews through metal with ease, handling holes up to 2-3/8 inches wide and 3 inches deep.

Drill and Tap with One Machine

One of the standout features for welders is the reversible motor. If your job requires tapping threaded holes after drilling, the Icecut 250 lets you do it all with one machine. You can drill your pilot hole, switch to a tap, and reverse the motor to back it out smoothly. No need to drag a separate tapping arm or hand-tap holes in the field. The Dynamax™ speed control keeps the power steady, so you get clean, consistent threads and holes every time, whether you are working on mild steel, stainless, or aluminum.

Smart Features that Save You Money

Breaking expensive annular cutters is a frustration every welder knows. The Icecut 250 helps you avoid this with its Accudrill™ LED display. It's like having a speedometer for your drill pressure—keep it in the green zone, and you know you are cutting efficiently. If you push too hard, the light turns red, warning you to back off before you snap a cutter or overheat the motor. Combined with a powerful electromagnet that stays put, this drill gives you the confidence to tackle tough overhead and vertical drilling jobs safely and efficiently.
