Makita 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 4-1/2″ / 5″ Paddle Switch Angle Grinder Kit
For the most demanding applications, the 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 4-1/2″ / 5″ Paddle Switch Angle Grinder Kit with Electronic Brake offers corded grinding capability without the wire. A system of tools, batteries, chargers, and other components called XGT uses 40v lithium-ion batteries. Because XGT is designed to give high power to handle demanding tasks, users can seamlessly switch to a cordless job site. To outperform, smarter, and outlast the competition, XGT is outfitted with cutting-edge brushless motor engineering, clever digital connectivity, and better durability features.
Features
- Makita-built brushless motor along with 40V max XGT battery combine to deliver powerful grinding and up to 60% faster cutting speed than predecessor models
- Electric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity
- Electronic current limiter helps protect the motor from overload in high torque application
- Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop
- Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked
- Large paddle switch allows for power start press points at multiple grip positions
- Quick guard rotation allows easy tool-less adjustment for increased productivity
- Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life
- Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
- Reinforced metal gear housing engineered for maximum job site durability
- Wire mesh intake covers are engineered to prevent debris from entering motor
- Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
- Rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job
