Part No: DCG408N-XJ(DEWPDCG408N)
Features & Benefits
- High-Output Brushless Motor: Guarantees extended working periods per charge cycle and significantly reduces the need for routine maintenance compared to older motor types.
- Electronic Kickback Brake: A critical safety feature that automatically senses a pinch, stall, or bind-up, engaging instantly to shut off the tool and bring the spinning disc to a rapid halt.
- Paddle Switch Design: Provides immediate control, shutting off power as soon as the handle grip is released, which helps prevent accidental start-ups and improves operational security.
- Mesh Debris Filters: Protect internal components by restricting harmful dust and abrasive particles from being sucked through the motor housing, thereby extending the unit's working lifespan.
- Tool-Free Guard Adjustment: Simplifies setup by allowing rapid, easy positioning and changes between the grinding and cutting guards without requiring additional tools.
- Optimised Body Contours: The slim-line profile and rubber overmould handle ensure a firm, comfortable grip and excellent handling, even during prolonged periods of operation.
- Die-Cast Gear Casing: Increases the overall strength and durability of the tools mechanism, helping to safeguard the internal components under rigorous use.

FAQs
There’s plenty to think about when choosing an Angle Grinder. The first factor is the disc diameter; larger discs can make deeper cuts.
Then consider how much power you might need. Higher wattage tools provide more power and can therefore cut denser material. Then think about speed; some grinders operate at fixed speed and others have variable speed control. Being able to vary the working speed of your grinder enables you to carry out more delicate work.
Another factor is whether the tool is equipped with safety features, such as a Paddle Switch and Soft Start.
Brushed motors use carbon brushes to transfer power from the fixed part of the motor to the rotor. This creates a reliable and relatively inexpensive motor, but brushed motors do require regular maintenance, in order to either clean the brushes or replace them as they wear out. A brushless motor, by contrast, uses a magnet mounted on the rotor to generate the power and electrical switching to perform the function carried out by the brushes. The additional complexity of the motor’s working means that brushless motors are usually more expensive than brushed.
The work you’ll be doing with your grinder will influence which voltage you consider. If your grinder is going to be used for construction, you may want to think about choosing a Makita 40v or DeWalt 54v tool, but 18v variations are also available.
