Angle Grinder | 4-1/2-Inch | 12 Amp | AC Brushless Motor | Variable Speed | 3-Position Side Handle | G12VE2

Love the performance and the quality of the product,in my line of work performance is very important.

Variable speed angle grinders are relatively rare, but it's exactly what I was looking for. I use it for stock removal and polishing on tempered steel, and it's *perfect* for that, precisely because I can control the speed and take things low and slow when I need to be careful not to ruin a heat treat. I also hear a lot of praise from guys who use them to polish granite countertops and such. Your average angle grinder is more about high speed and brute force. If that's what you want, this is probably not for you. For me, it's an even more versatile tool that can be pretty gentle when I need it to be, runs exceptionally cool, and can still go up to a reasonably respectable 8500 rpms when I need a little more juice.

Pues METABO HPT no tiene muy buena fama por ser HITACHI pero en pruebas iniciales se comporta bien. Me encanta la ergonomía, es el esmeril de botón de tecla mas cómodo que he usado, la función de vel variable es magnifica: me hubiese gustado que tuviera mas potencia pero creo que esta bien para usarlo en acabados y cortes fáciles. Algo que no me gusto es que llego con el resorte del seguro de la cubierta protectora como salido, tuve que acomodarlo y manipularlo para que quedara firme: pensé mucho en quedarme el esmeril por ese detalle ya que estoy acostumbrado al resorte firme de los BOSCH y este es solo un alambre en espiral pero a fin de cuentas decidí que en este caso privilegiaría la ergonomía sobre ese detalle que mas bien parece error de diseño en la herramienta: en fin vamos a ver como se comporta en mis tareas que no son de alta demanda en el día a día sino esporádicas

Good product with 6 different speeds for different applications. I would recommend this product for big job applications.

Used primarily for surface prep on concrete, lot of bevel cuts and precision removal of very hard concrete/coatings. The grinders with brushes get hot when we turn down the speed to control dust, these do not. Ever. We went from having to rotate grinders and still burning them out to each man having one and completing tasks with that grinder with no issues. Absolute beast, but balanced and quiet. Love these machines.
