Overview
A brushless motor spins the wheel, and automatic speed change adjusts speed and torque as the load changes. Star protection lets the tool and a compatible battery exchange data to guard against overload, over-discharge and overheating.
Corded-style grinding without the cord is the reason to choose it for cutting pipe, conduit and tile in places with no outlet. The limitation is the bare-tool format, since batteries and charger are sold separately.
Who it's for
Plumbers, masons and metalworkers cutting pipe, conduit, tile or concrete away from power get a complete grinding kit. A buyer starting from nothing must add the power system first.
Pros and cons
- Cut-off and grinding wheels included
- Tool-less wheel guard
- Automatic speed change
- Battery and charger sold separately
- Wheel guard weight not listed
- Run time per charge not given
- Tool weight not listed
Performance notes
Automatic speed change senses load and adjusts, so a cut slows less when the wheel bites into thick material. The brushless motor reduces wear and heat compared with a brushed motor. Wheel choice matters more than power: thin cut-off wheels slice metal and tile, while a grinding wheel removes material.
