JET 16-1/2" JDP-17MF Floorstanding Drill Press
Are you running into the limits of a smaller drill press when working with thicker stock or deeper holes?
What if your drill press offered greater swing, deeper spindle travel, and the control needed for steady drilling work?
Meet the JET 16-1/2" JDP-17MF Floorstanding Drill Press, a full height machine designed for accurate drilling across a wide range of shop tasks.
With 16 spindle speeds, a long 4-3/8 inch spindle travel, and a rigid floorstanding design, it provides the capacity needed for demanding drilling operations.
When your drill press runs smoothly and holds its adjustments, you can focus on the work instead of constant setup changes.

JET JDP-17MF for Deep and Accurate Drilling Work
16-Speed Pulley System Matches Material and Bit
The 16 spindle speeds allow you to choose the proper cutting speed for different materials and drill sizes. This range helps maintain cleaner holes and better tool life. The hinged belt cover provides quick access when changing speeds.
Long 4-3/8 Inch Spindle Travel Handles Deeper Holes
The extended spindle travel allows deeper drilling without resetting the workpiece. This helps when working with thicker material or when drilling through stacked parts. The longer stroke improves efficiency on repetitive drilling operations.
Quick Release Crank Table Adjusts Height Easily
The crank-operated worktable allows quick height adjustments during setup. It can tilt 45 degrees in either direction to support angled drilling tasks. This flexibility helps accommodate different workpiece sizes and drilling positions.
Adjustable Depth Stop Maintains Repeatable Results
The depth stop displays both inch and millimeter markings for accurate adjustments. A quick set bolt allows fast positioning when setting drilling depth. This system helps maintain consistent hole depth during repetitive operations.
