Dremel

Dremel is a brand name for a line of versatile rotary tools. These power tools are characterized by their small size, high speed, and interchangeable accessories, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.

Originally developed by Albert J. Dremel in 1932, the Dremel tool was initially conceived as a high-speed tool for dental technicians. The brand has since expanded its product line to include other power tools such as oscillating multi-tools, saws, and engravers, but the rotary tool remains its most iconic product.

Dremel rotary tools are commonly used for tasks such as carving, grinding, cutting, sanding, polishing, and engraving on materials like wood, metal, plastic, and glass. The versatility of the tool stems from the wide variety of available accessories, including grinding stones, cutting wheels, sanding drums, polishing bits, and engraving cutters. Users can change these accessories quickly using a collet system, allowing them to adapt the tool to different tasks.

The tool is popular among hobbyists, crafters, model makers, and DIY enthusiasts. Its compact size and ease of use make it a practical choice for intricate work and small-scale projects. Dremel tools are available in both corded and cordless models, catering to different user needs and preferences. The brand is currently owned by Bosch.
