Overview

The DEWALT DWE4011 is a corded 4-1/2 inch class angle grinder running on 120 volts with an 850 watt motor and a no-load speed around 12,000 RPM. At 3.9 pounds, it's built as a compact grinder for cutting, grinding and surface prep.

DEWALT positions this size of grinder as an everyday trade tool, small enough for one-handed control on metal fabrication, welding cleanup and masonry cutting when fitted with the right wheel. Corded power means no battery runtime limits, at the cost of needing an outlet.

Who it's for
