Frequently Asked Questions
What air compressor do I need for the LE-G213P 3/8" Reversible Air Drill?
This tool requires approximately 4-6 CFM at 90 PSI. A compressor with at least a 20-gallon tank provides sufficient air volume for intermittent use. For continuous operation, a 30+ gallon tank is recommended.
Is the LE-G213P 3/8" Reversible Air Drill compatible with my existing air setup?
Yes. Like all Le Lematec tools, it uses a standard 1/4" NPT air inlet fitting that's compatible with most compressors, hoses, and quick-connect couplers from any manufacturer.
What is the difference between the LE-G213P and LE-D130?
Both are 3/8" reversible air drills. The LE-G213P offers higher torque output and a more compact form factor, making it better for drilling through harder metals and working in tighter spaces. The LE-D130 has higher RPM for faster drilling in softer materials like wood and aluminum. Choose the LE-G213P for steel and stainless; choose the LE-D130 for general-purpose and lighter materials.
How do I prevent drill bit breakage in hard metal?
Use cutting oil, start at low speed (feather the trigger), apply firm and steady pressure, and clear chips frequently by backing out the bit. For stainless steel, use cobalt or carbide bits and keep speed below 600 RPM. The LE-G213P variable speed trigger gives you precise control for hard-metal drilling.
