Dewalt DWD28499X Angle Grinder 5.3 Hp 7 Inch 9 Inch

Product Description

The DEWALT DWD28499X is a heavy-duty large angle grinder designed for demanding grinding, cutting, and surface preparation tasks. Built around a 5.3-horsepower motor, it accommodates both 7-inch and 9-inch grinding wheels, giving technicians and tradespeople flexibility across a range of disc sizes and applications. At 18.35 pounds, this is a two-handed tool intended for sustained use in industrial and commercial environments. It is well-suited for electricians, pipefitters, ironworkers, fabricators, and general contractors who need sustained cutting or grinding power on heavy stock material.

This angle grinder is used in applications where smaller 4.5-inch or 5-inch grinders lack the wheel diameter or motor output to handle the work efficiently. Typical use cases include weld grinding on structural steel, surface prep on concrete, cutting through heavy pipe, and removing large amounts of material quickly. The dual wheel-size compatibility allows a single tool to serve multiple job configurations when paired with the appropriate guard and disc for each wheel diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and disc changes must be performed with the tool unplugged from the power source. Always confirm the wheel or disc speed rating meets or exceeds the tool's no-load RPM before mounting.
