Description

Authorized Dealer Badge DEWALT logout

High-Velocity Precision Finishing and Heavy Deburring The DEWALT DWE4997VS 2-Inch Corded Die Grinder features a high-performance brushless motor and a powerful 13 Amp capacity designed for industrial finishing and heavy-duty material removal. Operating with an adjustable variable speed configuration from 7,000 to 25,000 RPM, this premium tool allows contractors to match specific rotational velocities to delicate polishing or aggressive grinding applications. Equipped with an integrated lock-on paddle switch for uninterrupted workflow, it incorporates a proactive mechanical kickback brake that halts the spindle instantly during a pinch or stall event to maximize jobsite safety.

Best Used For:

  • Internal Deburring and Pipe Porting: Cleanly details cast iron components, flushes interior weld pass imperfections, and smooths sharp metal orifices.
  • Heavy Fabrication Slag Removal: Blends structural steel connections, grinds away rough mill coatings, and shapes complex alloys in assembly shops.
  • Remote Power Operations: Operates efficiently on mobile jobsites using direct hookups to portable field generators or industrial welding machines.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Advanced Brushless Motor: Eliminates carbon brush maintenance entirely while significantly extending overall motor life and operational runtimes.
  • Variable Speed Dial: Provides a versatile no-load velocity range of 7,000 to 25,000 RPM to adapt seamlessly to varying industrial accessory requirements.
  • Mechanical Kickback Brake: Automatically detects sudden changes in tool rotation to shut down the electric motor and bring the accessory to a dead stop when pinches occur.
  • Dual Collet Architecture: Employs a precision 1/4-inch collet with an additional 1/8-inch reducing sleeve to accept a wide variety of industrial shank sizes.
  • AC/DC Voltage Versatility: Engineered for maximum efficiency working off both standard grid systems, heavy duty generators, and common jobsite welding rigs.
