Overview
The Makita 9566CV is a corded electric angle grinder built for cutting and grinding metal. It's rated at 100 volts with an 1800-watt motor and a no-load speed of 10,000 RPM, weighing 7.4 pounds, with a 4.6 star rating across 247 reviews.
A 100-volt rating is unusual for a standard US household outlet, which is worth checking against your local power supply before ordering, since some Makita grinder variants are built for markets outside North America. Beyond that, the combination of an 1800-watt motor and 10,000 RPM no-load speed puts it in the mid-size angle grinder class used for cutting, grinding and deburring metal.
- Corded electric power
- 1800-watt motor
- 10,000 RPM no-load speed
- 7.4 pound weight
Who it's for
Fits a shop or trade user who needs a corded angle grinder for metalwork and has confirmed the 100-volt power rating matches their outlet. Not a fit for anyone assuming standard household power without checking that spec first.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- High 1800-watt motor output
- 10,000 RPM no-load speed for grinding
- Corded power with no runtime limit
- 100-volt rating needs checking against your outlet
- At 7.4 pounds, heavier than compact grinders
Performance notes
At 10,000 RPM no-load speed with an 1800-watt motor, this grinder is built for continuous metal grinding and cutting rather than light detail work. Corded power means no battery runtime limit, at the cost of needing an outlet nearby.
