  What is an angle grinder used for?

Angle grinders are playing an increasingly important role in today’s construction. Especially our workers and friends must be very familiar with angle grinders. This is an indispensable tool for us in grinding and polishing. So, What are the specific uses of angle grinders?

1. What is an angle grinder?

Angle grinders are mainly used in cutting, grinding, polishing, etc. Angle grinders mainly use power devices such as electric motors, gasoline engines or compressed air. The noise level of an angle grinder ranges from 91 to 103 decibels. Angle grinders are basically used for cutting or grinding. There are many types of angle grinders, mainly used in various jobs and various materials, such as: cutting discs (diamond blades), wire wheel brushes, grinding discs, polishing discs, woodworking saw blades, marble cutting discs, aluminum Alloy cutting disc.

2. What is the purpose of angle grinder?

Angle grinders are widely used in metal processing, construction industry and emergency rescue work. It is more common in workshops, garages or auto repair shops. There are many types of angle grinders. Choosing the size of the angle grinder and how powerful the motor is are important factors in choosing a suitable angle grinder. Other factors include whether the power is electric or pneumatic, the speed and the size of the crankshaft. The greater the electric power demand, the larger the angle grinding disc must be selected. There are many specifications of angle grinding discs. Generally, many companies in China can customize them according to special requirements. Among them, pneumatic angle grinders are generally smaller, and pneumatic angle grinders are very light and more suitable for high-precision work. Moreover, pneumatic angle grinders have no motor and can operate underwater, so they are widely used. Pneumatic angle grinders are small, lightweight yet powerful. Electric angle grinders are mainly used in large-scale and heavy-duty work. However, there are also small electric angle grinders and large pneumatic angle grinders. In fact, to put it simply, the purpose of an angle grinder is threefold: 1. By replacing different grinding wheels, different metal grinding, cutting and rust removal can be performed; 2. By replacing the stone cutting blade, it can also process ceramic tiles, stone, etc. Cutting small pieces of wood and thin boards; 3. Replace hundreds of pages of wheels and polishing wheels for metal polishing.

3. Remember to protect yourself when using an angle grinder

The angle grinder is mainly used for grinding. The original intention of the designer is not to separate the parts. Because the angle grinder rotates at a high speed, you cannot apply force when using saw blades or cutting blades, and you cannot cut hard materials more than 20mm thick. This will cause the saw blades and cutting blades to break if they get stuck. If it cracks and splashes, the machine will bounce off, which may not only damage items, but also injure people! When using an angle grinder, you must choose a saw blade with more than 40 teeth, and you must operate it with both hands and take protective measures.
