Review: Excellent tool. - Works Great! Review: This is an excellent piece of equipment - Just like the "info video" says, I occasionally have to drill holes in the 11/16" - 13/16" range in mild (A36) structural steel plate and shapes up to 1/2" thick and for that, this machine is a godsend - it's not cheap but neither is my labor and this thing saves hours on end. And of course you can easily spend 2X's the price but unless you're a daily user I don't know why you would - this thing is fairly robust. I've had the machine for a few weeks and drilled about 40 holes with it for base plates and similar and including layout time and cutting the plates it took me maybe 3 or 4 hours. If your needs are similar then I would say "Buy with confidence". ## Features - Large 1.5 x 2 capacity - Hidden motor cord - Increased safety with less maintenance - Ergonomic housing & Spring slug ejection - Slot Drive arbor for more accuracy and quicker change out of accessories ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09L7FH7J9 | | Best Sellers Rank | #151,358 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #9 in Power Magnetic Drill Presses | | Brand | Hougen | | Brand Name | Hougen | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 46 Reviews | | Drill Type | Basic Drill | | Drilling Capacity Metal | 1.5 Inches | | Drilling Capacity Wood | 1.5 Inches | | Is Electric | Yes | | Item Weight | 27 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hougen | | Manufacturer Part Number | 0900101 | | Maximum Chuck Size | 1.5 Inches | | Maximum Power | 850 Watts | | Model Number | 0900101 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Speed | 450 RPM | | UPC | 662850025451 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 115 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hougen - **Color:** Multicolor - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Speed:** 450 RPM - **Voltage:** 115 Volts ## Images ![HMD900 Magnetic Drill - 115V - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61H4pRigbkL.jpg) ![HMD900 Magnetic Drill - 115V - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TRhGIqFGL.jpg) ![HMD900 Magnetic Drill - 115V - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fvnCLW-NL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I need to drill an 11/16" hole with the center that is 1-3/4" away from a wall.

If your needs are similar then I would say "Buy with confidence". ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Safety stops IF magnet comes loose *by S***O on May 4, 2023* Great drill, and the fact that it has a safety switch IF the magnetic base comes loose, is all you need to make the choice to buy this over cheaper models. Magnet is big-time strong so it has never come loose in over 50 holes on a recent project but good to know that it won't ruin your life if it goes rogue! This is a quality tool. Matched with 1" drill set and this hobby-machine guy no longer hates drilling holes! The safety and quality of good holes is SO worth it. Can't believe it took me so long to realize how much time a mag-drill saves AND how you have so many options for metal projects. No place to attach? Clamp on a flat plate or big angle iron and you are good to go. I even prefer this over drill press because the annular drills are so much faster and better. I just clamp a flat plat in the vice. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hougen HMD900 Magnetic Drill - 115V - Hougen 12001 12,000 Series Annular Cutter Kit 9/16, 11/16, 13/16, 15/16, 1-1/16" 1-Inch Depth of Cut 3/4-Inch Weldon Shank For Magnetic Drills - Hougen 11745 Slick Stik Lube 16 oz for optimum annular cutter tool life and cutter efficiency --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/379949409-hmd900-magnetic-drill-115v](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/379949409-hmd900-magnetic-drill-115v) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
