Angle Grinders

Angle grinders across the sizes a metal shop runs: 125mm cordless brushless units with brakes, paddle switches and quick locking nuts; 900W to 1400W corded 125mm machines with safety clutches, soft start and restart protection; 180mm cordless grinders for heavier cutting; and 230mm 2400W to 2700W machines with deadman triggers and rotating handles for deep cuts in plate and section. Variable speed models running 2500 to 10,500rpm suit flap-disc blending and stainless work where a fixed-speed grinder burns the finish, and flat-head grinders reach into tight corners.

Cordless or corded angle grinder?

Modern 18V brushless 125mm grinders match 1100W to 1500W corded performance for cutting and dressing welds, and skip the lead entirely — but for all-day bench grinding or 230mm cutting, a corded machine still earns its keep. Features like brakes, quick locking nuts and drop-security brackets are worth prioritising either way.
