Angle Grinder

Angle grinders cut, grind and polish metal, concrete, tile and stone. Welders, fabricators, masons, tile setters and maintenance crews use them to cut steel bars, remove welds, clean rust and cut tiles.

How to choose an angle grinder

• Disc size: 4" (100mm) is the standard size in the Philippines. It is light and handles most cutting and grinding. 5" gives a little more cutting depth, while 7" and 9" grinders are for heavy grinding and thick steel.
• Power: 600W to 750W suits home use and occasional jobs. 850W to 1200W keeps its speed under load for daily fabrication work.
• Switch type: a slide switch can stay on for long grinding runs. Paddle and deadman's switches stop the grinder as soon as you let go, which many shops prefer for safety.
• Variable speed: lower speeds help when polishing or working on stainless steel.
• Corded or cordless: corded grinders run all day. 18V and 20V cordless grinders are handy for site work and spots far from an outlet.

Small or large angle grinder?

For most jobs a 4" or 5" angle grinder is enough, and it is easier to control with one hand on the guard side. Choose a 7" or 9" large angle grinder for long grinding runs on heavy plate and pipe. If you work where power is hard to reach, see cordless angle grinders.

Match the disc to the job: thin cutting and grinding discs for steel, and flap discs for blending welds and finishing.
