The Foredom K.5401 Deluxe Woodcarving Flex Shaft Kit is a purpose-built system for woodcarvers who demand high torque, precise control, and versatile accessory compatibility. Built around Foredom's most powerful flex shaft motor, the M.TX 1/3 HP permanent magnet motor, this kit delivers more torque across the entire speed range than any other Foredom flex shaft motor, reaching a top speed of 15,000 RPM. The cast iron foot pedal speed control provides exceptional stability, and the collet-style H.44T handpiece accommodates shank diameters up to 1/4", making it ideal for the larger burs and accessories commonly used in woodcarving. The kit includes a 26-piece accessory assortment and a MAMH-1 bench clamp motor hanger, giving you everything required to get started immediately. 115V only — TX motors are not available in 230V.
