DEWALT Angle Grinder, 4.5 Inch, 11 Amp, 11,000 rpm, With Paddle Switch, Ergonomic Compact Design Grinder Tool (DWE402)

Amazing tool at a great price. This DEWALT angle grinder has plenty of power, and the 11 amp motor is a noticeable step up from the battery versions I have used. It feels solid, runs strong, and handles cutting and grinding jobs without struggling. The paddle switch and compact design make it comfortable and easy to control. For the money, this is a reliable, powerful grinder and a great purchase.

I bought this cause my grinder is a battery milwaukee that lasts about 10 mins of low pressure grinding and my old corded one got jacked out of my garage.I knew full well what the project was when I ordered it. I got a piece of a scrapped machine at work and wanted to use it for ballast in my 4x4 in winter without giving up cargo space with sand bags.I am a truck mechanic and have been for many years. I have put many quality grinders in their final resting place. Most of them you could tell on day one what to expect.This one will be with me at home for the rest of my years. I fed this thing a hot supper for 8 hrs strait upon receipt. amazon got it here 2 days before promised which was exactly when I needed it. I was finishing blowing snow when the mail man brought it and went right to work. I used up 8 cut wheels 3 gemini cut-n-grind (which are awesome) and 6 flap disks.First the bad. The guard is way too big. I am sure it is for consumables that have the built in nut because they are much taller. I cut and sanded it to be correct for the type I use. Then the spindle is too long. with a wheel on it sticks out 5/16 past the nut. so I took er to the belt grinder and with the motor running sanded it flush to the nut...took the nut off and feathered a little chamfer on it. Something inside was chattering when I started. I took the cover/spindle off of the gearbox and smeared the high quality moly grease over the ring gear, which was dry. the sound continued for about 20 mins then went away and it ran as smooth as any I have ever used. I think it may have been the brushes on the commutator getting acquainted.The good. More power than you need. The consumables can only handle so much. It is light weight/power balanced and smooth, after a break in period. Running a grinder is never "fun" so having one that can make the least work of it is important.5 stars is not enough. There is sooo much junk out there now. this is not that. pro grade tool ready to work. 1 star assembled in USA. this is important to me as we make great stuff, I hope they expand on it. I bled red for many years but the future may hold primarily yellow for this reason alone. 1 star for power. 1 for staying cool. 1 for feels good in the hand. 1 star for fast and easy disk change. 1 star forthe cord, very flexible and did not get hot. 1 star for packaging, not excessive and went in my wood burner not the dump. 1 star cause yellow tools are hard to lose in a mess.lost a star as it did not come with the spanner for the nut, surely a packaging mishap. it did come with a 3/8 allen wrench that I have no idea why. still way over 5. I did have to remove a few wheels with the edge of a table yesterday. You just hold the lock, which is perfect on this tool, tap the wheel on the edge of the bench in the correct direction and it comes right off....you often break the wheel doing this but it is usually not one worth saving if you do.

I don't use it by the DeWalt but with this one I did. It's been a winner too! I mean I put this thing through it going to school for welding technology and it takes everything I can throw at it. About 6 months now hard at it every day you can trust these things

I am very happy with the performance of this DeWalt angle grinder. The user manual leaves a lot to be desired, though. However, most of the set up and operation is common sense (at least I felt that way). I used it to strip paint from a house foundation, and it worked very well.I want to emphasize that it's critical that the user wear appropriate safety gear: eye protection (safety googles) and proper respiratory protection (use a face mask that matches the possible particulate contamination that will become airborne and surrounds the user).Very happy to include this angle grinder in my DIY toolset. 4.75+ stars.

Purchased this as a DIY'er because I wanted a robust, well built and long lasting tool. Decided to forgo the cordless/battery powered version because this was cheaper and doesn't require replacing expensive batteries after a few years of ownership. Ticks all those boxes for the desirability of ownership very well. Should last forever if taken care of and as someone that grew up using tools with power cords, it's not inconvenient to use in the least.Cons... Just one. I don't understand why, for the life of me DeWalt couldn't include the proper spanner to loosen the nut for the shaft. Instead you get an Allen Key, a poor substitute. OEM DeWalt spanners are less than $10 here on Amazon, but you shouldn't have to buy one.Also... For cup wheels that don't use the nut to secure the wheel, you'll need a 22mm "thin" wrench to tighten the hex bolt on cup wheels to secure them for operation.

The dewalt grinder has been great. Shipping was fast.

Works great exactly what I needed

This grinder is very powerful solid build locking trigger great for sharpening mower blades

received with no disc plus a missing wrench for tightening disc, wasting money.

Excelente potencia recomendado al 100 %

My Milwaukee died after 20+ years. Still have a need for a corded grinder so I was looking for a good value and quality unit. Since all my battery tools are Dewalt and no issues to date, I figured a Dewalt grinder would be good. So far it works great, very strong. My only issue is the paddle switch is on the small side (compared to my Millwaukee) and the safety leaver takes some getting use to. If it gets too annoying I will just remove it.

Maquina musculosa. La volvería a comprar
