Makita GD0800C 1/4" SJS™ Die Grinder, Teal

Product Description Makita’s ¼” SJS Die Grinder (model GD0800C) combines a powerful 6. 6 AMP motor with motor and gear protection features for longer-lasting grinding performance. The GD0800C features a slide switch for increased convenience. The GD0800C is equipped with SJS , an innovative mechanical system that allows the drive shaft to slip if the wheel suddenly catches or binds. SJS is engineered to help protect the gears and motor, and extend grinder life. The GD0800C is powered by a 6. 6 AMP motor that delivers 7, 000 – 28, 000 RPM with soft start for smooth start-ups. The electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load, and a variable speed control dial allows the user to match the speed to the application. Consistent with other models in Makita’s expanding grinder line-up, the GD0800C features labyrinth construction, a series of channels engineered to capture dust and debris and prevent contaminants from penetrating the gear box and front armature bearing for longer tool life. In addition, the protective zig-zag varnish seals the motor and bearings from dust and debris by creating a barrier under rotation. From the Manufacturer This 1/4-inch, variable-speed die grinder from Makita features electronic speed control for constant speeds under load. The slender double-neck die-cast aluminum gear housing on this unit means easy handling. Its labyrinth construction, a complex series of channels, protects the bearings and motor from dust and debris for long tool life. A speed control dial means optimal speed for various materials. Makitas Super Joint System protects the gear, collet, and coupling by absorbing shock caused by accidental wheel lock. This unit is double insulated and includes a collet cone, and no. 13 and 19 wrenches.
