The Foredom® H.18D Handpiece, Duplex Quick Change, is designed to elevate productivity for jewelers and craftsmen who require frequent tool changes with fingertip control. This quick-change handpiece is perfect for stone-setting and other applications that demand rapid access to various tools. The H.18D model features a press-to-release positive locking collet, offering quick, easy, and secure attachment changes with minimal downtime.

The Foredom® H.18D Handpiece is engineered with pre-lubricated ball bearings, requiring no additional maintenance, and a duplex spring for enhanced flexibility and maneuverability. The handpiece accommodates 3/32"-shank accessories, making it versatile for a wide range of jewelry-making applications. Whether you are working on polishing, engraving, or intricate detailing, this handpiece ensures precision and consistent results.

The lever-style quick-change mechanism opens easily by pressing the lever on the side of the handpiece, allowing for fast, tool-free changes. It’s recommended to keep a bur in the collet when not in use to prevent damage to the collet. The handpiece's lightweight and ergonomic design ensures comfort during extended use, while its slim grip offers better control for fine, detailed work.

However, the Duplex springs in the H.18D Handpiece are not covered under warranty and must be handled with care. These springs should not be bent beyond 45 degrees during use, as they can be easily damaged. If you choose this model, it’s advisable to keep extra springs on hand, as they may require replacement over time.

Designed for experienced users of flex shaft tools, the Foredom® H.18D Handpiece is an essential tool for jewelry professionals who demand high-performance and flexibility in their work.
