Tolsen 79648 Bench Grinder sharpens metal tools and smooths rough edges using two 8-inch stones. A 350W high-torque motor drives the wheels at 2950 rpm for consistent material removal. Upgrading the motor from 150W to 350W and increasing wheel size from 6 inches to 8 inches enables faster grinding.
Key Features
- 350W High-Torque Motor: Under the 350W motor, wheels spin at 2950 rpm. Prevents stalling during sharpening.
- Heavy-Duty Aluminum Base: With a solid aluminum construction, the base stays fixed. Reduces movement when grinding steel.
- Adjustable Eye Shields: Through clear protective guards, users monitor the 200mm wheels safely. Blocks sparks without obstructing view.
- Dust-Proof Power Switch: Inside the sealed switch, a membrane blocks grit and road dust. Stops failure in workshop dust.
