OUTPOWER: Makita-built brushless motor along with 40V max XGT® battery combine to deliver powerful grinding and up to 60% faster cutting speed than predecessor models*
Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT®) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop
OUTLAST: Electronic current limiter helps protect the motor from overload in high torque application
Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked on
Slide switch with lock-on for operator convenience
Quick guard rotation allows easy tool-less adjustment for increased productivity
Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life
Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
Reinforced metal gear housing engineered for maximum job site durability
Details:
The 40V max XGT® Brushless Cordless 4-1/2″ / 5” Cut-Off/Angle Grinder with Electric Brake (GAG01Z, tool only) delivers corded grinding performance without the cord for the most demanding applications. It’s powered by a Makita-built brushless motor which delivers 8,500 RPM for heavy-load applications and increased power and speed. The GAG01Z offers up to 60% faster cutting speed when cutting #5 (5/8”) rebar. It is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit, and more.
An electric current limiter helps protect the motor from overload in high-torque applications. Additional features include an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less and Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT®) that turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is forced to a stop.
