What is an angle grinder?

The angle grinder is a mechanically driven hand tool with a rotating grinding disc. The grinding disc is installed at a right angle to the motor and rotates at a very high speed. This tool is usually used to grind, cut or polish metal, concrete, ceramic tiles and other hard materials. Angle grinder discs may be strong and capable of abrasive grinding and cutting tasks or smooth and flexible grinding and polishing. This powerful tool can be very dangerous, and precautions must be taken to ensure safe operation. Angle grinders for hand-held drills are usually a large and heavy tool with two handles to increase maneuverability. Most angle grinders are driven by electric or pneumatic motors. Cordless, electric models can also be manufactured. Electric models are usually used to cover large areas of heavy work. Pneumatic models are usually small in size and designed for general light duty tasks. All models of angle grinders use the same basic operating principle, regardless of size or type. The fast rotating disc is mounted on the side of the tool, at right angles to the motor. The surface of the disc can be used for grinding, sanding, or polishing. The cutting operation is usually performed on the edge of the disc. The cutting task of an angle grinder is actually done by grinding a small groove in the material until it is divided into two parts. Angle grinders are usually used to grind or cut metal and concrete. In car body repairs, this tool is often used to smooth rust and paint on metal parts, and to polish chrome-plated bumpers. Angle grinders are also ideal tools for cutting concrete and asphalt surfaces in road and bridge construction. Construction workers often use this tool to cut bricks or blocks and remove excess mortar from the masonry structure. Emergency personnel can also use this tool to rescue people trapped in the car. Various tasks require different types of angle grinding discs. When grinding or cutting steel and concrete, a hard high abrasive disc is required. When cutting concrete and masonry, this type of grinding disc usually must be kept moist and sometimes diamond tips are used to improve cutting performance. It is also possible to use fewer grinding discs for grinding and polishing, which usually requires a flexible backing attachment. When using an angle grinder, certain safety measures must be taken to avoid injury or fire. Head, face, and foot injuries are common when operating the equipment. It is usually necessary to wear a safety helmet and face shield to avoid being hit by flying debris. Protective shoes must be worn to prevent the concrete and steel from falling and causing injury. When using this tool to grind and cut steel, a lot of sparks are usually generated, which may ignite nearby flammable materials.
