Makita 18V LXT Brushless X-Lock Angle Grinder 125mm Body Only

At some point most tradespeople and many DIY-ers will need an angle grinder. The Makita Brushless X-Lock Angle Grinder is a powerful yet easy-to-use option. It is useful for cutting, polishing or grinding a wide range of materials, from metal to ceramic tiles.
This model is a cordless version and has a brushless motor for greater efficiency. Makita’s X-lock mechanism makes it easy to install or remove discs in a single move without the need for a special tool. There’s a side handle that can be fitted to suit left or right-handed users, and the product also has several built-in safety features that are essential for a tool with high-speed rotating parts.
Active feedback sensing technology automatically shuts down the grinder if the speed suddenly changes – for example, if there is an obstruction in the material you’re working with. An anti-restart function means it won’t start unexpectedly after you’ve changed the battery or grinding wheel – keeping you safe. It also benefits from automatic torque drive, which changes the cutting speed according to the task, giving optimum operation no matter what the material.
