Overview

Elevate your finishing work with the ENKAY Heavy Duty Flex Shaft. The 56-inch flexible cable delivers extended reach and nuanced control, transforming a standard drill or bench grinder into a versatile precision station. The 1/4-inch keyless chuck enables rapid accessory changes, so you can switch from carving to polishing with minimal downtime. Built for clockwise rotation, this shaft supports a wide range of hobby and craft applications while helping you maintain a smooth, steady workflow.

How it works

Attach the mandrel to your device’s chuck and hand-tighten the 1/4-inch keyless chuck to secure your accessory. When using with a bench grinder, you may need a motor arbor and chuck attachment.
