Cordless Small Angle Grinder with No-Lock Paddle Switch (Tool Only) Review: Milwaukee Quality! - If you buy this you probably already have invested in other Milwaukee tools, so you know what you are getting. So I will go with the specifics on this particular grinder: First, it cuts or grinds as well as a corded grinder. In fact, I have found I grab it first because I don't have a cord to deal with. It is powerful and balanced. I believe I actually have more control of it than with my corded Milwaukee 4.5" grinder. Second, it has a brake system that stops the cutting/grinding wheel quickly when you release the trigger. This is much safer in general, and specifically allows you to set the tool down on your welding table without the wheel spinning and either scooting the tool into the floor or throwing tools or metal pieces around. Also will add the lock to use when changing wheels works nicely. I can change them with gloves on without hunting down the wrench. It also has a clip-on plastic guard that goes over the regular guard that I believe covers more when using a cutting disc. Nice to have, but it is another thing to keep track of. So I am pretty happy with it, the best part is I can carry it out into the field where there is no corded power and cut or grind something, which is it's greatest function. Battery life seems good to excellent, but honestly I keep several charged batteries around, I am comfortable with the whole M18 system, but this tool doesn't appear to use a battery any more than my other tools, that includes a number of tools such as drivers, drills, sander, impact, and Sawzall. Review: Excellent tool - This grinder is super strong and feels really well-built. The brushless motor and paddle switch make it easy to use, and it works great with my M18 batteries. My husband loves it, totally worth it! The item was completely new and the box came perfectly. ## Features - Electronic Clutch for Kickback Protection - Overload Protection to Maximize Motor Life - Anti-Vibration Side Handle for Increased User Comfort and Safety - Compatible with all M18 batteries - 5/8"-11 Spindle for Use with Common Grinding Accessories ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09RX4R3TR | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,493 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #3 in Power Angle Grinders | | Brand | Milwaukee | | Brand Name | Milwaukee | | Color | Chrome | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 2,375 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00045242566280 | | Horsepower | 800 | | Included Components | Angle Grinder | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 13"L x 8.5"W x 3.5"H | | Item Type Name | Angle Grinder | | Item Weight | 79.82 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Milwaukee | | Manufacturer Part Number | MWK2880-20 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 8500 RPM | | Model Number | 2880-20 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Dimensions | 13"L x 8.5"W x 3.5"H | | Style | Hammerdrill | | Style Name | Hammerdrill | | UPC | 045242566280 | | Unit Count | 18.0 Count | | Voltage | 18 Volts | | Wattage | 800 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Milwaukee - **Material:** Metal - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Product Dimensions:** 13"L x 8.5"W x 3.5"H - **Style:** Hammerdrill ## Images ![2880-20 M18 Fuel Brushless Lithium-Ion 4-1/2 in. / 5 in.
