Angle Grinder

One Power Tool, Many Uses – The Angle Grinder

For tackling tough jobs, an angle grinder is a very handy power tool to own. That being said, if you are planning to buy one, you will need to research your options and don't forget to consider a cordless angle grinder with a battery.

How to Use an Angle Grinder

Sometimes called a side grinder or disc grinder, this handheld power tool may be used for cutting, grinding and polishing metal. Used on construction sites and in machine shops, they cut quickly and effectively. Other common types of grinder are bench grinders and die grinders.

Some power angle grinders can be used as sanders using an angle grinder sanding disc with a backing pad or disc. The backing system is usually made of hard plastic, phenolic resin, or medium-hard rubber, depending on the amount of flexibility you need. You can also install discs to cut wood. See our range of angle grinder parts for the options and accessories you require.
