The Makita 40V GAG13 Angle Grinder delivers up to 60% faster cutting speed than previous models. By simply pulling a release lever, the X-LOCK quick change system allows for a tool-free wheel change.  The electric break stops the grinding or cut-off wheel within 2 seconds and the active feedback-sensing technology (AFT) turns motor off if tool is forced to stop. The soft start provides smooth start-ups and longer gear life. Overall length is 16 1/2” and weighting 7.3 lbs. with battery.
