Makita 40V Max XGT 5 in. Angle Grinder Bare Tool (Model GAG01Z)

The Makita XGT® brushless cordless 5 Inch cut-off angle grinder is powered by a Makita-built 40 Volt brushless motor that delivers an operating speed of 8500 RPM for heavy-duty applications. Grinder gives more cutting speed when cutting 5/8 Inch rebar that helps in cutting a wide range of materials such as tile, concrete, pipe, conduit and more. Electric current limiter reduces the overloading of motor in high torque applications. Automatic speed change mechanism adjusts the speed and torque automatically depending upon the applications. Electric brake ceases the grinding in just 2 seconds or less. If the rotation of the wheel comes to a stop, the active feedback-sensing technology turns off the motor immediately. Lock-on sliding switch offers good operating convenience and the quick guard rotation facilitates tool-less adjustments. Anti-restart mechanism prevents sudden initiation of the motor when the battery is inserted while the sliding switch is still on. Soft-start mechanism negates start-up reaction for easy initiation of the motor.

Key Features

• “Bare Tools” are sold without batteries or chargers, making them ideal for users who already own compatible power sources. However, if you don’t already have the required battery and charger, you must purchase them separately
• OUTPOWER: 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
• OUTSMART: Electric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity
• OUTLAST: 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
• Electric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity
• Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked on
• Slide switch with lock-on for operator convenience
• Quick guard rotation allows easy tool-less adjustment for increased productivity
