Chicago Pneumatic 6151600010 Straight Air Die Grinder

Product Description

The CHICAGO PNEUMATIC 6151600010 is a straight air die grinder built for continuous material removal, porting, deburring, and surface blending in professional shop environments. Powered by compressed air at 90 psi, it delivers 1.00 hp and spins a 1/4 inch collet at 25,000 RPM, making it well suited for precision grinding work on metal, welds, and castings. The lever throttle gives the operator direct speed control during use. Air consumption runs at 31.79 CFM, so pairing it with an adequately sized compressor is essential to maintain full performance. The steel housing holds up to the demands of daily trade use.

This grinder is designed for use by machinists, fabricators, automotive technicians, and maintenance professionals who need a compact, straight-body tool for internal grinding, die work, and port cleanup. The straight die grinder form factor allows access to tight cavities and recessed surfaces where angle grinders cannot reach. At 6.7 inches overall length and 2 pounds, it is easy to maneuver during extended operations. The front exhaust directs airflow away from the work surface and the operator, reducing debris blowback in confined workspaces.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified pneumatic tool users familiar with compressed air systems. Before connecting, verify the shop air supply delivers a minimum of 90 psi and sufficient volume to sustain 31.79 CFM at the tool inlet. Use a properly rated air line, fittings, and an inline lubricator to extend tool service life. Always disconnect the air supply before changing collet accessories, and confirm the collet nut is fully tightened before resuming operation. Wear ANSI-rated eye protection and hearing protection rated for 93 dB or higher noise exposure during use.
