Overview
The DEWALT DWE4887 is a corded electric angle grinder running on 120 volts at up to 25000 RPM, weighing 4.74 pounds.
DEWALT built the DWE4887 as a full size corded grinder rather than a compact model, and the 25000 RPM motor speed puts it in line with grinders meant for cutting, grinding or surface prep on metal. The corded design trades portability for the sustained power output that pro users tend to want on a grinder.
