The 40V max XGT® 5" Paddle Switch Flathead Grinder (GAG16) delivers the power of a 13 AMP corded grinder in a low-profile design for increased access in tight spaces. The GAG16 features a low-profile 39° flathead design for more access in tight spaces. It features a paddle switch for convenient on/off operation. The 5" Paddle Switch Flathead Grinder features a variable 5-speed control dial for RPM adjustments (3,000-9,000 RPM) to match the speed of the application. Convenience features include a tool-less wheel guard designed for faster guard installations and adjustments. The GAG16 features Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT®), which turns the motor off if the rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop. It also features anti-restart protection that is engineered to prevent motor start up when the battery is inserted with the switch locked on. XGT® is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40V max lithium-ion batteries. XGT® is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT® is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart, and outlast the rest.

- WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
