DC411B 18-Volt 4-1/2-Inch Cordless Cut-Off Tool At a Glance: 6,500 RPM for optimal cutting and grinding power Jam-pot, low profile gear for precise gear alignment Two-position side handle for comfort and control Bare tool--doesn't include battery or charger Three-year limited warranty; one-year free service

Power and Performance

Powered by a 6,500 RPM motor, the DC411B's abrasive 4-1/2-inch-diameter wheel will slice through most metals quickly and cleanly. Besides the cutting and grinding wheel, the versatile DC411B will also accept a Zirconia-grit flap disk, stringer wire wheel, and rubber-backed sanding disc, allowing you to clean, smooth, shape and finish a wide variety of materials, including steel, wood and masonry.

Comfort and Convenience

The DC411B has a low-profile, jam-pot housing that ensures precise gear alignment for a smoother, quieter transmission while allowing access to tight, narrow spaces. A quick-change wheel release provides easier and quicker wheel removal without the need for a wrench, and since there's no cord to drag around, you can work un-tethered anywhere at any height or angle. Other commercial-grade features include a two-position side handle and a large trigger switch with lock-off button.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cuts through concrete slab like a hot knife through butter, November 17, 2007

I don't know how some of the other reviewers were using this tool, but I also bought a 4" diamond blade (an expensive high-quality one with lots of diamonds) for cutting through stucco siding and concrete slabs---it works terrific! I don't write many glowing reviews, but I can't say enough good things about this tool. It's light weight and it runs a long time on a single battery---longer than my DeWalt 18V cordless reciprocating saw---doing serious damage. I'm glad I bought it and I'm glad it's in my tool kit. The only negative is that it should have a dust collector attachment because this thing kicks up clouds of dust as it devours concrete.

4.0 out of 5 stars I got one "free", August 7, 2007

Mine came in a combo kit with other 18v tools. I fully expected to eBay it away as a bare tool.

Surprise! I've used this thing way more often than I expected! Before I could eBay it, I had a use for it. I use it to sharpen shovels and mower blades, and to cut decking bolts. On several occasion, I've used it to cut chain and to cut slots in stripped bolt heads.

This tool probably won't be suitable for all-day grinding, but it's super handy for those one-off uses as a cordless tool. I'm keeping mine!

4.0 out of 5 stars Handy But Limited, May 7, 2007

Anyone thinking that this is the same as a standard Dewalt angle grinder with a 120 volt motor/cord will be disappointed. That said, even with this tools limitations on power, it is very handy to not have to lug out cords to do a small grinding or cutting job. If you have budget for only one grinder - and had some heavy grinding to do - get a corded model, for a second, third + grinder, or for only light work this tool can be really handy.
