Description of πŸ’ͺ Flex Shaft Handpiece Pedal by Glardon Vallorbe

The Glardon-Vallorbe motor and foot control is covered by a one-year factory warranty. You can use any QD style (USA standard) handpiece with this flex shaft, so all the Foredom QD handpieces will work. Made in China. Quick change handpieces have fixed collets, so the Foredom H.20 quick change handpieces (not included)only work with 3/32" diameter bits. You cannot adjust this hand piece to work with different diameters of tools.

Waste of money, malfunctioning parts

Industrial and Scientific buyers beware! Based on my experience, this product was a complete disappointment. While the design and versatility seemed promising at first, the handpiece pedal malfunctioned after only a few uses. The inconsistent speed made it impossible to complete my projects with the precision necessary for my line of work. Save your money and invest in a more reliable option.

Pros
  • Versatile design
Cons
  • Malfunctioning parts

So far, so good. the best of power tools

The handle was a little difficult to tighten/loosen and seemed a bit noisy so I'm using my old one which is fine and taking it as a spare. I like the motor and the cable. It is quieter than my previous engine which is great as I live in an apartment. I upgraded the pedal to a Fordom. Much better and more control.

Pros
  • Made in China
Cons
  • Only available in white

Great car! in Rotary Tools

Best price I could find with free shipping! Otto Frei carries this machine and their customer service department has confirmed that Foredom handpieces will work with this flexible shaft. Works like a dream but needs to upgrade the foot pedal to a better pedal. Instead of buying a $50 hanger, I bought a $8 solid iron 6 inch plant hanger and mounted it on the wall above my bench. Works perfectly! I love my new flexible wand!

Pros
  • you cannot adjust this tip to work with different diameter tools.
Cons
  • Out of fashion
