Value Collection VC-PT-5G6197SM Air Angle Grinder 7 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION VC-PT-5G6197SM is a pneumatic angle grinder built for heavy-duty grinding, cutting, and surface preparation tasks in shop, fabrication, and field environments. Powered by compressed air at 90 psi, it delivers 8,500 RPM and 1.3 horsepower to a 7-inch wheel with a 5/8-11 spindle thread. Air consumption runs at 6 CFM (2.83 LPS), and the 3/8-inch inlet keeps the air line connection straightforward. A front exhaust port directs airflow away from the work surface, and a trigger-lock feature supports extended run operation without operator fatigue. Installed and serviced by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians, this grinder is a workhorse tool for demanding material removal applications.

This angle grinder fits residential shop, commercial fabrication, and industrial maintenance settings where a 7-inch pneumatic grinder is the standard choice. It is suited for use on steel, weld seams, castings, and concrete surfaces. The trigger-lock design makes it practical for prolonged grinding passes. At 13.75 inches in overall length and 7.72 pounds, it balances reach and control for overhead and bench-level work. A shop air compressor capable of sustaining 90 psi and at least 6 CFM at the tool is required for consistent performance.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 7-inch grinding, cutting, and flap disc wheels threaded to a 5/8-11 spindle. Requires a shop air supply capable of delivering sustained 90 psi and at least 6 CFM at the tool inlet.

Installation Notes

Installation and wheel changes should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with pneumatic tool safety practices. Disconnect the air supply and verify zero pressure at the tool before mounting or removing any wheel or accessory. Ensure the wheel rating meets or exceeds the 8,500 RPM free speed of this grinder, and always use the appropriate guard for the wheel type installed. Refer to ANSI B11 standards and the wheel manufacturer guidelines for proper mounting torque and inspection procedures.
