About M.LX-TXR Hang-Up Motor with Foot Control - FOREDOM
Foredom M.LX-TXR Flexible Shaft Power Tool System
Experience unmatched control and robust power with the Foredom M.LX-TXR Flexible Shaft Power Tool System. Designed specifically for low-speed, high-torque applications, this system is the premier choice for professionals in stone carving, wax modeling, pearl drilling, and heavy-duty grinding. Manufactured by Blackstone Industries, the M.LX-TXR combination pairs the specialized LX hang-up motor with the responsive C.TXR foot control to deliver precision exactly when you need it.
High Torque at Low Speeds
Unlike standard high-speed rotary tools, the Series LX motor is engineered to provide maximum torque at lower speeds, operating up to 5,000 RPM. This specialized gearing ensures that the tool will not stall under pressure, making it ideal for tasks that require forceful, deliberate material removal or delicate drilling where heat generation must be minimized. The motor features permanently lubricated ball bearings for long-lasting, maintenance-free operation within the motor housing.
Precision Speed Control
The system includes the reliable C.TXR Foot Control, housed in durable plastic. This dedicated speed control is specifically calibrated to work with the LX and TX series motors, offering smooth, variable speed adjustment from zero up to the maximum 5,000 RPM. The ergonomic pedal design allows for intuitive, hands-free speed management, letting you focus entirely on your workpiece.
Durable Flexible Shaft
The M.LX motor comes equipped with a standard key-tip flexible shaft and sheath, featuring a torsional breaking point of 24 lbs-in. The flexible shaft is designed to curve gracefully to your workspace, reducing hand fatigue by isolating the weight of the motor from the handpiece. For optimal longevity, the shaft should be kept free of sharp bends (minimum 4-inch radius) and requires simple routine lubrication.

Maintenance for Longevity
Maintaining your M.LX-TXR system is straightforward. While the motor itself features permanently lubricated bearings, the flexible inner shaft should be cleaned and re-lubricated with Foredom flex shaft grease (p/n MS10006) every 40 hours of use. A more thorough solvent cleaning is recommended every 200 hours. Motor brushes should be checked periodically and replaced when worn down to 1/4" (6mm).
Note: Handpiece is sold separately. Always use accessories rated for 5,000 RPM or higher. To explore compatible handpieces and accessories, visit pepetools.com.
