Metabo 6-inch Angle Grinder for Professionals, 13.5 Amp, 9,600 RPM, Lock-on Switch, Made in Germany
Category: metabo grinder
The Metabo Pro Series Angle Grinder stands out as a premier tool, meticulously engineered and crafted in Germany to ensure durability, safety, and high productivity. This angle grinder is designed for versatility, featuring a tool-free, burst-proof adjustable guard that accommodates both metal grinding and masonry cutting tasks.
At its core is the robust LongLife AC/DC motor, which provides up to 50% more torque, enabling quicker material removal, alongside a 20% increase in overload capacity. This enhances the grinder's longevity and overall durability. The innovative motor is equipped with multiple protective elements: an unobstructed rear air intake, optimized internal airflow, and epoxy-coated copper windings extending beyond the field coil. These elements work together to improve heat dissipation and shield against abrasion. Moreover, the winding protection grid significantly prolongs the armature's lifespan by up to five times in extreme conditions.
Safety features are paramount with this grinder. The Metabo S-Automatic mechanical safety slip clutch minimizes the risk of kickback, allowing users to maintain control in the event of an accessory jam. This function is essential for safe operation, ensuring that users can handle challenging jobs with confidence.
The ergonomic design of the grinder contributes to reduced user fatigue. Its rubberized side handle, featuring a bulb-shaped grip and a 15-degree offset, promotes exceptional handling and comfort. This thoughtful design disperses forces evenly across the hand, minimizing the risk of long-term occupational disorders that can impact the hand, wrist, and arm.
In terms of construction, the die-cast aluminum gear housing is engineered to dissipate heat efficiently from the motor while incorporating oversized bearings and heavy-duty gears for added robustness. Its rotatable design allows users to adjust the switch position for easier operation from both left and right angles, enhancing flexibility during tasks.
The Metabo Pro Series Angle Grinder boasts several advanced features that cater to professional users. The patented M-Quick system enables the fastest tool-free disc changes at the push of a large spindle lock button, maximizing productivity. The Tacho-Constamatic full wave electronics ensure that speed is maintained under load, while the soft start feature allows for smooth initial operation. Additionally, restart protection prevents unintentional restarts after power interruptions, and an overload protection system guards against motor overheating.
Furthermore, the grinder is equipped with an MVT anti-vibration side handle, which mitigates vibration-related injuries and enhances user comfort during prolonged cutting and grinding applications. To prevent motor damage, the grinder includes auto-stop carbon brushes that protect the motor from wear and tear.
Finally, the tool-free adjustable guard prioritizes user convenience while also being burst-proof, providing enhanced safety. With voltage specifications of 120V AC/DC, the Metabo Pro Series Angle Grinder is an outstanding investment for professionals seeking reliability, efficiency, and safety in their tools. Its exceptional engineering and thoughtful design make it a preferred choice for both metalworking and masonry projects.
