1. NEW ‘Dead-mans’ Paddle Grinders

As a global leader in angle grinder design, working closely with industry giants, Metabo has first hand experience in the needs and requirements of the industrial user. It is through these global partnerships that we have brought you our new range of low vibration ‘dead-mans’ paddle grinders.

What is ‘dead-mans’? The machine turns off automatically when the hand is released from the trigger. This helps protect the user and work area from disc impact should the grinder be dropped. This is especially important for those working in confined spaces, at height or in areas of high conductivity.

Covering the popular sizes of 4 ½”, 5” and 6”.  Our WEA models have a
vibration reading of just 3.6 m/s2.  This gives an ELV (exposure limit value) of 15 hours & 26 minutes. More than enough time for a full days work! Most grinders run around 7 m/s2 giving an ELV of only 4 hours & 5 minutes, i.e. not even enough time for a full shift.  Low vibration is not only great for protecting users against exposure to vibration and it harmful side-effects, but it is also proven to increase disc and machine service life.
