If you are going to spend the money get any of the Foredoms with the 1/3 HP motor. Not the smaller motors. I was used to dial type speed devices and thought about getting the dial controller for this unit. After using the foot controller for a time I would NOT go back. It is much nicer to slowly come up to speed on many projects. Then it is quite easy to maintain any speed you need. I.E. the foot controller is not so sensitive that you cannot easily maintain one speed. Changing bits. On the unit I had before the Foredom I had a quick change collar. Figured I would hate the pin and wrench setup of the Foredom. I keep the chained together pin & wrench on top of the motor. With the right hand I grip the hand piece and rotate the tip with thumb and fore finger. This allow me to quickly align the holes and put the pin in. Now the left hand uses the wrench to quickly replace the bit. Quicker to do than talk about. I now only slightly miss the quick change collar. One thing you will need to get used to. When first starting the motor will twist. This will move your bit. So I had to get used to keeping the bit away from the project when starting and to get up to speed slower. I also bought the #30 hand piece with the Chuck. This allows you to use the full range of small drill bits. Also, I can have one bit in the original hand piece and one in the other. Changing hand pieces is quicker than changing bits. The hand pieces just pull directly off. Then rotate the bit in the next hand piece so the tab on the shaft meets the slot in the hand piece and snap back on. For occasional use you can use a Dremel with a flex shaft but it starts getting hot if you are using it for a long time or are using a bigger bit piece. This can be used all day without getting above warm. While I do not use this every day I am very happy that I have it. My dremels are hanging in the same spots but still rarely get used. Review: foredom is the best rotary tool - compared to other brands there is less vibration. Dremel had a lot of vibration and scarred the rocks i was carving. ## Features - 39" long flexible shafts and sheaths - Two year warranty on 1/3 HP Series TX Motors and Controls - 15,000 RPM Max Speed - 115 Volt ONLY ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000NOQWJG | | Best Sellers Rank | #168,040 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #129 in Motor Speed Controllers | | Brand Name | Foredom | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (141) | | Horsepower | 1.6 | | Item Weight | 8.4 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Foredom | | Material Type | Magnet | | Model | FOR-M.TX-TXR | | Model Name | FOR-M.TX-TXR | | Part Number | FOR-M.TX-TXR | | Speed | 15000 RPM | | UPC | 986667235316 | | Voltage | 115 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Foredom - **Horsepower:** 1.6 - **Model Name:** FOR-M.TX-TXR - **Speed:** 15000 RPM - **Voltage:** 115 Volts ## Images ![M.TX-TXR 1/3 hp TX Motor and TXR Speed Control - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XgZuxgaQL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do i find both inner and outer shaft for fordom TX?** A: I go to a local Wood Carvers supply shop.

Dremel had a lot of vibration and scarred the rocks i was carving. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic heavy duty flexible shaft rotary tool. *by K***D on November 18, 2017* After burning out several Dremel tools, which lasted 6 months at best and a couple of Praxair tools I broke down and ordered one of these "industrial" flexible shaft Fordom tools. I should have done this a long time ago! The tool is massive compared to anything that Dremel makes, totally different League. It operates very smoothly and very controllable with the provided foot switch speed control. After having used be lightweight Dremel tools, and the much better Praxair rotary tools, the power and torque available with this tool is absolutely amazing! Should be a "lifetime" purchase. ## Frequently Bought Together - Foredom M.TX-TXR 1/3 hp TX Motor and TXR Speed Control - Foredom 44T Handpiece Foredom Flexible Shaft Grinders - Foredom H.30-C2 Handpiece Blue 3-Jaw Jacob Chuck Rotary Tool 30 Special Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5221647-m-tx-txr-1-3-hp-tx-motor-and-txr](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5221647-m-tx-txr-1-3-hp-tx-motor-and-txr) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-21*
