Portable Electric Tools: DEWALT High Performance Large Angle Grinders
DEWALT announces the launch of its new line of high performance Large Angle Grinders. The new range of Large Angle Grinders is ideal for users that include structural steel fabricators, metal fabricators, mechanical, concrete repair, oil and gas, and road and bridge contractors who perform professional applications such as grinding and beveling steel, weld cleaning, concrete surface preparation, and cutting concrete, pipe and steel plate.
The Large Angle Grinders also include three features that are included within DEWALT’s Perform & Protect criteria for control and vibration:
- E-Clutch protects the user from pinch events and stalls by reducing the impulse by 75% versus the same unit without this feature
- Power Loss Reset protects the user from accidental restarts if power is lost and then restored while the trigger is in the "on" position
- Anti-vibration system includes an anti-vibration side handle, anti-vibration trigger handle, and tightly built construction that provides lower vibration levels than DEWALT’s leading competitor
For pipeline contractors, the Pipeline Large Angle Grinder (DWE4559CN) includes a special gripping surface that allows the user to comfortably grip the head of the grinder, and can be used instead of the side handle in that application only.
This new range of Large Angle Grinders maximizes horsepower and minimizes weight. The new DWE4597, as one example from the range, delivers 4.9 horsepower yet only weights 12.3 lbs. When compared to its predecessor (D28494S), it’s nearly a full pound lighter yet almost a full horsepower more powerful.
DEWALT Perform & Protect
The new line includes some of the many DEWALT power tools within the Perform & Protect power tool line. This line meets DEWALT’s Perform & Protect criteria for control and reduced vibration.
Models in the line are expected to retail for approximately $149.00 - $269.00. Each model will come standard with a three-year limited warranty, one-year free service contract and 90-day money-back guarantee.
