Drill press accessories expand bench + floor-standing drill press capability — vices + cross-slide tables + chuck upgrades + depth stops + coolant systems. Selection turns on operation type + table dimensions + drill chuck spec.
| Accessory | Best For |
|---|---|
| Machine Vice (Drill Press Vice) | Securing workpiece — accurate hole positioning |
| Cross-Slide Table (X-Y Compound) | Precise X-Y positioning — light milling + accurate drilling pattern |
| Drill Press Chuck (Keyless + Keyed) | Chuck upgrade — keyless saves time, keyed grips better |
| Chuck Key Replacement | Lost-key + spare replacement |
| Morse Taper Sleeve / Adapter | Adapting different taper shanks to drill spindle |
| Depth Stop (Quick-Set) | Repeatable hole depth — production drilling |
| Coolant System (Mist + Flood) | HSS + cobalt drilling — extends tool life |
| Drill Press Lamp / LED Magnifier | Workshop visibility — quality + safety improvement |
| Quill Lock + Fine-Feed Adapter | Light milling + tapping head use |
| Tapping Head Attachment | Power tapping in drill press — reverse-thread engaging |
| Spare V-Belts + Drive Belts | Drill press maintenance consumable |
Vice critical: ALWAYS clamp workpiece — drill press torque can SPIN the workpiece + cause injury. Match vice to drill press table T-slot pattern. Chuck: Match Morse taper to spindle (MT1 / MT2 / MT3 common). Keyed chuck = max grip; keyless = production speed. Companion: drilling, drill accessories, machine vices, Morse taper.
Drill Press Accessories
AIMS Industrial stocks a range of drill press accessories to expand the capability and precision of bench-top and floor-standing drill presses. From machine vices and cross slide tables for accurate workpiece positioning through to chuck upgrades, depth stops and coolant systems, our accessories help get more from your drill press investment.
Machine Vices and Cross Slide Tables
A machine vice secures workpieces firmly to the drill press table, preventing rotation during drilling — essential for safety and accuracy when drilling metal. Cross slide tables (X-Y compound tables) bolt to the drill press table and allow precise positioning of the workpiece in two axes without re-clamping, which is essential for drilling bolt hole patterns and multi-hole components accurately.
Chuck Keys and Replacement Chucks
Replacement drill chuck keys are a workshop consumable — frequently misplaced or worn. Keyed and keyless chucks in 13mm and 16mm sizes are available as upgrades to standard machine chucks, with Jacob’s taper and threaded mount options for common bench drill spindle configurations.
Depth Stops and Guides
Depth stop collars and adjustable depth stops allow consistent, repeatable drilling to a set depth — critical for counterbore and countersink operations, blind hole work and any application where through-drilling would damage the workpiece or fixture beneath.
