The auto brake on these tools stops the grinding wheel 50-percent faster than previous models. And what the company calls its “eÂclutch” activates in less than a tenth of a second when a wheel pinch or stall is detected.
Anybody who has used these tools for long periods of time knows that they can get hot. DeWalt addressed this challenge by increasing copper in the windings by 40 percent. The result is more power and around 30 percent less heat.
Despite the extra windings, the 194Â-millimeter circumference of the grinders make them smaller around than competitive models and easier to hold and position relative to the work.
A oneÂtouch guard can be positioned by hand in a single motion without need for a key or tool. The grinders accept 4.5Â-inch wheels and come with a lanyardÂ-ready connection so you can tether the tool to rigid structures.
Suggested retail price is $159.
