Adding a drilling attachment to your equipment inventory is a very good capital investment decision that will add to the services and options you can provide to your customers or for your own company.
While perhaps not your most costly equipment item, getting the most versatile drilling attachment at the best possible price is important for any business, but so is the quality and the durability of the drill. A low-cost drill that doesn’t stand up to the job isn’t cost effective, and a high priced item that doesn’t fit on all the equipment you need it to isn’t helpful either.
There are some terrific drilling attachment options out there from companies dedicated specifically to the design and fabrication of drills for all different types of applications. It is well worth the time to make sure you have shopped around online and found out just what your option are given your existing equipment and your current and projected drilling needs.
Ratings and Reviews
One of the best things about shopping online is the access to unbiased and honest feedback and reviews from prior customers and clients. When it comes to buying equipment, you want to work with a company that has a proven track record in producing drilling attachment designs that are durable and stand up to work in the real world.
Reading about the company, its philosophy on equipment manufacturing and its emphasis on customer service is also important, but what others have experienced is just as critical to consider. Check for consistent positive comments and feedback on all aspects of the product, service and any follow-up issues.
Options and Features
Not all companies selling drilling attachment components provide the same features and functionality. It is important to make sure that issues such as all angle drilling and the specific mounting option necessary to pair with your existing equipment are offered with the drill.
Different companies may offer options for front, side or rear mounting, and they also offer unique mounting plates that provide for fast attachment and removal of the drifters while still providing a stable and secure attachment for the most rigorous drilling needs.
For many companies, having more than one drilling attachment to allow for both percussion and rotary types of drifters is also important. If this is a consideration for your business working with one company is often the best option for best pricing and full customization.
