Some of the notable features are the EZ twist nose cap, which allows for quick accessory changes, and the variable speed capability which ranges from 5,000 to 30,000 RPM.

This device can be used for cutting, carving, cleaning, grinding among several other things. It is compatible with all of the current line of rotary tool accessories and comes with a two year warranty.
