Dewalt DWG418X1 Cordless Grinder Kit 4.5-6 in 60V Brushless

Product Description

The DEWALT DWG418X1 is a brushless cordless angle grinder kit built for metal and concrete cutting, grinding, and surface prep on demanding jobsites. Powered by a 60-volt MAX platform, the grinder delivers motor performance equivalent to a 13-amp corded tool with a no-load speed of 9,000 RPM. The kit accepts wheels from 4.5 inches to 6 inches in diameter. Two integrated safety systems — the Kickback Brake and the Anti-Rotation E-CLUTCH — automatically detect pinch, stall, or bind-up events and shut the tool down to reduce the risk of injury. The kit ships with one 20V/60V MAX 9Ah battery, one charger, and a storage bag.

The DWG418X1 is suited for commercial and industrial metal fabrication, concrete grinding, and general construction work. The grinder handles grinding and cutting applications; cutting use requires a Type 1 guard, which is not included in this kit. The Kickback Brake engages in bind-up situations and stops a standard 4.5-inch bonded abrasive wheel within approximately 1.5 seconds of trigger release. The E-CLUTCH system activates in less than one-tenth of a second when a stall is detected, immediately shutting down the motor to limit tool movement.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes must be performed by a qualified operator following applicable ANSI B7.1 and OSHA standards for abrasive wheel machinery.
