A new variable speed 2in (50mm) die grinder that greatly simplifies the procedure required to change accessories. Having a spindle lock only one wrench is needed on the collet.
Electronic control ups angle grinder productivity
An angle grinder, which maintains a constant speed while operating during both maximum load and no-load conditions, allows the user to achieve significantly greater productivity while grinding.
Equipped with Metabo's "goose neck" depth gauge, the SBE750 allows maximum accuracy of drilling depth by enabling the gauge tip to be positioned extremely close to the drill bit.
The SBE750 includes many other features unique to Metabo tools, such as a long lasting motor with an epoxy resin-coated field coil free of air inclusions, which helps prevent overheating under heavy loads.
Additionally, a winding protection grid that deflects airborne debris away from the armature windings increases the motor's life up to five times that of tools without such protection.
Variospeed full-wave electronic speed control allows for infinite speed variations, from the lowest speed value to the maximum, while reducing tool speed as the load increases.
This means the lower the tool speed, the quicker the tool will stop.
Safety features incorporated into the SBE750 hammer drill include Metabo's proprietary S-automatic safety clutch for protection against tool kick back from tool jams and double insulation that significantly reduces the chance of electric shock.
Rated at 6.2 Amps, with an input rating of 750 watts, the SBE750 weighs only 6.6lb.
The hammer drill, which comes with a 1/2in geared chuck, also offers a no-load speed of 0-1,000/0-3,000 rpm and 0-57,000 no-load blows per minute.
