3M 7000144117 Grinder Guard 4.5 Inches Flat Back

Product Description

The 3M 7000144117 is a flat-back grinder guard designed as a direct replacement component for 3M right angle grinders and sanders. This guard mounts to the grinder body to provide a protective barrier between the abrasive wheel and the operator during grinding operations. At 4.5 inches in diameter, it is sized for standard 4.5-inch right angle grinder configurations. Installation is performed by tool repair technicians or experienced trade professionals following the original equipment manufacturer service documentation.

This guard is intended for use with compatible 3M right angle grinders and sanders where the original guard has been damaged or worn. Right angle grinders are common tools across metalworking, fabrication, welding, and general construction trades. Replacement guards restore the tool to safe operating condition and are a required component under tool safety standards before returning a grinder to service. Always consult the applicable owners manual and parts list schematic when servicing 3M power tools.
