- Is this grinder good for cutting metal?
- Yes, for light jobs. The 12,000 RPM speed and 4.5-inch wheels handle rebar, bolts, sheet metal and pipe. It is not built for continuous heavy cutting.
- Does it come with wheels?
- Yes. The kit includes two cutting wheels, two grinding wheels and a flap disc, plus a side handle and wrench.
- Can I use standard 4.5-inch discs?
- Yes. It uses common 4.5-inch wheels with a 7/8-inch arbor, so most brands fit.
- Is it better than a brushless grinder?
- No on durability. Brushless motors last longer and run cooler, but they cost more. This brushed model suits occasional use.
- Does it have variable speed?
- No. It runs at a single 12,000 RPM speed, so it is not ideal for polishing or delicate work.
- How heavy is it?
- About 3.6 lbs, which is light for a corded 4.5-inch grinder and helps with one-handed use.
- Where is the Avid Power 4 Amp 4.5 Inch Corded Angle Grinder Kit cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $63.99, as of our latest check.
