Angle Grinders
An angle grinder is a hand held tool which features a mounted abrasive disc powered by either an electric motor or a petrol engine. There are a wide variety of different discs that are used for various tasks, such as abrasive grinding disks, sanding discs, wire-brush wheels, polishing pads and diamond blade cut-off discs. They are normally found in workshops and garages, but are also used in the metal work and construction industries as well as emergency rescue. As with all power tools there is a certain degree of danger in using an Angle Grinder, the high rpm involved can cause sparks and shards of metal to shoot off. It is recommended that all users wear suitable safety equipment and avoid loose fit clothing as there is a possibility of it catching in the wheel. When choosing your angle grinder be sure to choose the right power level for the task you wish to undertake, more powerful grinders will obviously be harder to handle than lower powered ones.
