DW840 7" Angle Grinder - Fine Homebuilding
I recently had to remove a cast-iron tub. I decided to cut the tub in place, and remove it in sections. A trial cut using a 4" angle grinder proved the concept - but this job really called for a larger tool. So I chose the 7" DeWalt. My choice at the time was this DeWalt, or a similar Ryobi.

Besides RPM, What's the Difference Between a DeWALT 7" Polisher and a DeWALT 7" Grinder?
Polishers have variable speeds, where as a grinder is ON/OFF. Their arbors may also differ slightly. Can you use a grinder as a polisher..? Yes, very very carefully and only if you're skilled. It's easy to burn through the clear/paint. More on reddit.com

How do I choose the right angle grinder?
Consider the size and power of the grinder based on the tasks you need to do. A smaller grinder suits lighter tasks, while a larger one is better for heavy-duty projects. Also, look for variable speed control and safety features like a guard and a safety switch.

Why should I use a grinding wheel specifically designed for metal cutting?
A grinding wheel designed for metal cutting is crucial for safety and efficiency. Using the wrong wheel can result in wheel failure, damage to your tool, and severe injury. Always check the wheel markings to ensure they are compatible with the material you're working with.

r/Tools on Reddit: I need a 7 inch angle grinder. What's the best corded option out there?
October 6, 2023 -

I have a 4-6 inch cordless DeWalt and it works great, but I need a 7 inch for a specific job (that I'll do once) and then it will serve as a plug in angle grinder for welding projects (cutting, grinding, polishing, deburring etc). I usually stick to DeWalt, but since battery compatibility isn't a Factor here, I'm willing to go to another brand if need be.
