r/harborfreight on Reddit: Bauer for light-moderate professional use?
September 26, 2023 -
Asking specifically about the 8 amp angle grinder, and their abrasive cut off saw. I need to weld occasionally for work. It's not an all day, everyday thing- I work for the natural gas side of the utilities department in a small town's public works section. I am buying many of my own tools cause city Council has never had to do this kind of work, there are several of us who need angle grinders, and chop saws, I am the only welder, (there are other uses for grinders and chop saws apparently) and City Council's attitude is "we bought you guys one of each, why do you need more?" Anyhow, I am looking at Bauer grinders and chop saws to use for this. Summary: occasional pipeline welding and fabrication for my job. Where it's not all day everyday, I'm looking for affordable and good enough quality to do the job. Will Bauer work, or should I step it up to Hercules, or just eat the cost of buying really good Milwaukee gear?

Which 8A Bauer grinder, the trigger grip or the paddle switch? I got the trigger grip on sale a month ago. I like it so far, works great but I've run it for maybe three minutes. I did my usual "read four-star reviews until you find someone with Strong Opinions" trick, and this one sold me: Fine for light metal removal with a hard wheel I am a professional custom metal fabricator. I have purchased dozens of grinders in my career of 25 years. For the money, this is a quality unit intended for repetitive light stress use. The unit runs smooth and quiet, so smooth that I find myself going for the Bauer grinder because it has very minimal vibration on my hands. So quiet and smooth that it makes me wonder if it runs as high as 11,000 RPM. Wish I had a way to test it. A good indication of quality bearings and quality machines gears. The unit feels solid, may be a little heavy for its size. This style is shorter than the competitors grinders of the same style and size range. I have two issues with this particular model, first is it could use a higher quality plug, the prongs bend in the plastic usually easy. Second the trigger does not have a safety, so when you set it trigger side down on the edge of a table, the edge of the table can press the trigger in with the weight of the grinder and the hanging cord. I thought I should add, that I just purchased 6 pcs 4.5 inch Bauer angle grinders for a job I’m doing. After going to all the chain stores and checking out all of their angle grinders in my size range, the Bauer seems to have comparable quality with the name brands as far as construction. Time will tell if the internal components hold up. The rigidity of the spindle bearing movement with minimal backlash in the spindle gears along with the robust design of the cast aluminum head housing are the defining things that sold me. Hope this answers some questions for the fabricator with questions.

Check out CPO Outlet online. They sell factory reconditioned tools at a solid discount from all major brands including dewalt, Milwaukee, makita, bosch, etc. For pipeline welding I'd think you want something beefier than HF brands.

August 22, 2024 - Maybe the Bauer brand is better, but I had two of HFs first generation grinders. Both failed within a month. I won't buy any HF motor items anymore.

July 21, 2019 - All I can say is that's the rare exception. It's always either the motor smokes or the switch goes. Usually the switch by 5x 1. They do work ok for the oddball one that has the wheel you rarely use but for your main grinders, nawwww💸💸💸.

I need to cut some bolts off my car. Any other future uses would also probably be automotive related also.
I'm wondering what's the best one for the price to go with.
39.99 BAUER 8 Amp 4-1/2 In. Trigger Grip Angle Grinder
44.99 HERCULES 7 Amp 4-1/2 In. Slide Switch Angle Grinder
49.99 BAUER 8 Amp 4-1/2 In. Paddle Switch Angle Grinder
69.99 HERCULES 11 Amp 4-1/2 In. Paddle Switch Angle Grinder
(Another brand?)
Sure more power will be better but do I really need it? Would I notice a big difference from 7, 8, 11 amp?
The $70 seems a bit much for what I need and if I'll hardly use it later on.
Is one type of switch better / safer to use the the others?
Is the 7Amp Hercules a better tool then the 8 amp Bauer?

I own several HF grinders at different price points plus a Milwaukee fuel grinder. For the needs you’re describing, just get the Warrior 5a for $15. They work just fine, and you can’t beat the price. I’ve had no issues with it. warrior

Dude the one for 10 on coupon sounds perfect for you. It has more than enough ass to get whatever job done you need. I would have never tried it, but a guy I worked with brought one in when we were doing a project that required us to grind and cut and we were a small shop that only had a 6" corded (my boss didn't quite understand our request for a corded) and a DeWalt cordless. That thing was an absolute champ. The guy was welding with some $500 mask and loved quality tools. I honestly thought it was a higher end grinder. He said he buys multiples so he doesn't need to switch disks when he's working at home and just replaces one whenever it breaks. For reference a basic cutting disk isn't stressing the tool at all. If you had on an aggressive grinding disk and were just going to town with the handle on for 8hr, you'd kill it pretty quick. The average dude doesn't ever put the handle on it and just uses it for 10 min and puts it back up .
