All specs

Wheel diameter
What this means

Wheel diameter is the largest wheel or disc the guard and spindle are designed for, commonly 4-1/2 or 5 inch on cordless grinders. A larger wheel gives more cut depth and reach. Never fit a wheel larger than rated, and check that the wheel's max RPM is at or above the grinder's speed.

4-1/2 in
Max speed
What this means

Max speed is the top no-load speed, in RPM for rotating tools. No-load means the tool is running free, so speed drops once it is working. On drills, many makers list a figure per gear: high for small bits, low for control with large bits or long screws.

9,000 RPM
Batteries in box
What this means

This lists how many batteries come in the box, if any. Tool-only (bare) listings include no battery or charger, which suits buyers already on that battery platform. Two batteries let you charge one while working with the other.

0from the box list
Battery capacity (each)
What this means

Amp-hours (Ah) is the battery's charge capacity. At the same voltage, a higher Ah pack runs longer between charges but is usually larger and heavier. Smaller packs keep the tool lighter for overhead and light work; larger packs suit saws, grinders and other high-draw tools.

None includedfrom the box list
Charger in box
What this means

This states whether a charger is included and which type. Chargers vary in output, so the same battery can take noticeably different times to charge on different chargers. Tool-only listings usually include no charger.

Nofrom the box list
Warranty
What this means

This is the maker's published warranty term. Terms for tools, batteries and chargers often differ, and some depend on registration or exclude certain uses. Read the maker's terms for what is covered, how claims are handled and whether proof of purchase is required.

3-Year Warranty
