Festool / Protool KC 13-1/2 AMI Automatic-Lock Keyless Chuck 1.5-13mm

Product information

Protool KC 13-1/2 AMI Automatic-Lock Keyless Chuck 1.5-13mm At a Glance: Heavy-duty 1.5-13 mm keyless metal-sleeve drill chuck with 1/2'-20 UNF mounting, Automatic-Lock design, carbide clamping jaws and impact-drilling capability for compatible legacy Protool drills. The Protool KC 13-1/2 AMI is a robust professional keyless drill chuck originally developed for Protool drilling and percussion-drilling machines equipped with the Automatic-Lock spindle system. Its generous 1.5-13 mm clamping range accepts a wide variety of conventional drill bits and accessories, while the strong 1/2'-20 UNF threaded mounting provides a secure connection to the compatible machine spindle. Built for demanding professional use, the chuck features a durable metal sleeve, impact-resistant construction and carbide-equipped clamping jaws for excellent grip and reduced wear. The Automatic-Lock design allows the compatible machine's spindle-locking system to assist with quick, secure hand tightening and releasing of the chuck. This makes the KC 13-1/2 AMI particularly suitable for drilling in wood and metal as well as percussion drilling in masonry when used with an appropriate Protool percussion drill and suitable drill bit. A genuine legacy Protool accessory Order number 618345 originates from the Protool professional power-tool programme. When Protool products were transitioned into the Festool range, the KC 13-1/2 AMI remained listed as a Protool accessory rather than being assigned a direct Festool replacement model. Vermont Sales retains the product under catalogue code FES618345, but the original product designation and engineering specification are Protool.
