- What wheels does the DWE43131 take?
- It accepts 4-1/2 inch and 5 inch wheels with a 5/8-11 arbor. That covers most cutting and grinding discs sold in the US.
- Does it have a lock-on switch?
- Yes. The trigger has a lock so the grinder keeps running without holding it down, which helps on long cuts.
- Is 11,000 RPM enough for cutting?
- Yes. 11,000 RPM is the standard no-load speed for corded grinders this size and matches the rating of most 4-1/2 and 5 inch wheels.
- Corded or cordless for shop work?
- Corded. The DWE43131 keeps its speed under load and never needs a battery charge, which suits bench and fabrication work near power.
- How does it compare with a compact 4-1/2 inch grinder?
- It is larger and heavier but takes 5 inch wheels and holds speed better. A compact grinder is easier to handle in tight spots.
