W2000 9” angle grinder
Metabo Corporation, a leading international manufacturer of professional grade portable electric power tools and abrasives for industrial, construction and welding applications, introduces the W2000 9” angle grinder. This new large angle grinder, featuring the same quality and performance as other Metabo tools, is lighter and more economical than other grinders in its class.

Ideal for cutting, grinding and sanding applications, the W2000 is equipped with a 9” wheel guard, delivers 115 inch-lbs of torque and a no-load speed of 6,600 rpm. This large angle grinder is one of the most efficient on the market, featuring a long-lasting 15 A motor with 2,000 watts of power.

The W2000 features an advanced ergonomic design with a three-position side handle that allows users to turn the tool 90° to cut vertically, while still having a firm grasp on the grinder.

The tool includes a simplified on/off switch configuration with a safety lock to prevent the tool from accidentally turning on, as well as a burst-proof guard and spindle lock. Auto-stop carbon brushes help to increase the tool’s service life.

The W2000 9” angle grinder is covered by Metabo’s XXL warranty. This free warranty extends the normal one year power tool warranty to three years.

Optional equipment for the W2000 includes a variety of Metabo abrasives, adapter kits to mount Type 1 and Type 27 non-hubbed wheels, a Type 1 cut-off wheel guard and a carrying case.
