Dewalt D284992 Angle Grinder Disc Guard 5 Inch

Product Description

The DEWALT D284992 is a replacement disc guard designed for use with DEWALT small angle grinders. The disc guard shields the operator from sparks, debris, and accidental contact with the grinding wheel during operation. It is an OEM-style accessory intended to restore proper guarding to a grinder that has a missing or damaged original guard. At 5 inches in overall diameter, it fits the wheel profile of compatible small angle grinder models. Installation is straightforward and requires no specialized tooling in most cases. This part is handled by grinding equipment technicians, tool repair shops, and tradespeople who maintain their own equipment.

This disc guard is suited for job-site and shop use wherever DEWALT small angle grinders are in service. Angle grinders see heavy use in metalworking, fabrication, masonry cutting, and surface preparation across electrical, mechanical, and construction trades. Replacing a cracked, bent, or missing guard is a required safety measure before returning a grinder to service. The D284992 is sold as a single-piece replacement unit.

Installation Notes

Disc guard replacement should be performed by a qualified technician or the equipment operator following the grinder manufacturer's service instructions. Always disconnect the grinder from its power source before removing or installing any guard. OSHA and ANSI B11 standards require that angle grinders be operated with guards in place at all times. Confirm the guard is fully seated and secured before resuming operation.
