Our take on the DEWALT DCG405B 20V MAX 4-1/2 in Angle Power Grinder

The DeWalt DCG405B is a bare-tool 20V MAX XR 4-1/2 in angle grinder with a brushless motor rated at 850 W and 9,000 RPM. It uses a slide switch and DeWalt's Kickback Brake and Power Loss Reset safety electronics. No battery or charger is included, so you need an existing 20V MAX pack. At $128.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent price range, with only two stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the DCG405B worth it?
If you already own DeWalt 20V MAX batteries, yes. At $128.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it is a low price for a brushless grinder with kickback protection. If you need batteries and a charger, factor that cost in.
What comes in the box?
The bare tool only: the grinder, a side handle and a wrench. No battery, charger or cutting wheel is included, so confirm before checkout.
How does it compare with the DCG413?
Both are 20V MAX brushless 4-1/2 in grinders. The DCG405B uses a slide switch and adds Power Loss Reset; the DCG413 uses a paddle switch. Pick based on switch preference.
Which battery should I use?
A 20V MAX 5 Ah or larger pack gives usable runtime for cutting. The listed 8 Ah capacity refers to a compatible pack, not one in the box.
Does it have variable speed?
No. It runs at a fixed 9,000 RPM, which suits cutting and grinding but is less ideal for wire wheels or polishing.
When is it cheapest?
Bare-tool prices move with promotions. The $128.99 Walmart price as of November 5, 2026 is near the bottom of its recent range, so it is a good time to buy.
Where is the DEWALT DCG405B 20V MAX 4-1/2 in Angle Power Grinder cheapest?
