## Overview

The Metabo HPT G12VE2 is a 4-1/2" angle grinder powered by a 1500W brushless AC motor with six variable speeds (2,500-8,500 RPM). Designed for professionals, it features advanced safety systems including anti-kickback and zero voltage restart, an ergonomic slim grip with a 3-position side handle, and a tool-less adjustable wheel guard. Its internal inverter circuit ensures stable performance even on generator power, making it a versatile, durable, and high-performance tool for grinding, polishing, and finishing tasks.

## Description

The 4-1/2" 12 Amp AC Brushless Variable Speed Angle Grinder G12VE2 offers exceptional performance and flexibility with six speed settings for more control. This is the tool you need whether you are polishing/finishing, removing paint, rust, burrs, grinding or rough grinding. The robust 12 Amp brushless AC motor delivers a no-load speed of 2,500 to 8,500 RPM, which allows you to take on a wide variety of tasks. The brushless motor is ultra efficient and permits the use of extra long extension cords with reduced power loss, extends product life and eliminates maintenance of armatures or carbon brushes. Provided safety features are kickback protection, zero voltage restart and soft start. A tool-less wheel guard and 3 position side handle provide the user increased operational efficiency. An anti-vibration side handle is included for user comfort. A removable dust filter offers additional protection for the motor against dust and debris and ensuring the tool is operating effectively as desired. Superior performance is when using a generator via an internal inverter circuit that regulates uneven power supply.

Review: I’m a welder and fabricator at a structural steel shop. I’ve been in the trade for over 9 years now and I’ve used DeWalt, Bosch, Makita, and other grinders. I’ve always been intrigued by brushless tech in drills but never had a brushless grinder because I wasn’t sure they’d have the ‘umpf’ of a regular brushed motor. I’m here to tell you, this grinder exceeded my expectations. This grinder has smooth power. It’s smaller body makes for a comfortable grip and easy maneuverability. I may be grinding on a big beam or heavy wall tubing, then switch to doing fine detail weld finishing. This tool handles it all with aplomb. I was concerned the 8500rpm would be too slow but I have yet to bog it down and see any depreciable difference in power output. It’s so smooth I don’t even turn it down when doing fine detail work, only for safety when using a wire wheel. I cannot say enough about the quality of this tool. I could’ve gotten an 11 amp DeWalt for nearly half the price, (not variable speed.) The added electronic/speed controls and kickback prevention features are an added bonus. Final thought - if you’re looking for a new 4 1/2” grinder and can afford the expense, stop shopping around, don’t waste any more time comparing tools, and buy this grinder. I’m a convert. I’m a Metabo man now. You won’t be disappointed! It deserved all five stars from me.

Pues METABO HPT no tiene muy buena fama por ser HITACHI pero en pruebas iniciales se comporta bien. Me encanta la ergonomía, es el esmeril de botón de tecla mas cómodo que he usado, la función de vel variable es magnifica: me hubiese gustado que tuviera mas potencia pero creo que esta bien para usarlo en acabados y cortes fáciles. Algo que no me gusto es que llego con el resorte del seguro de la cubierta protectora como salido, tuve que acomodarlo y manipularlo para que quedara firme: pensé mucho en quedarme el esmeril por ese detalle ya que estoy acostumbrado al resorte firme de los BOSCH y este es solo un alambre en espiral pero a fin de cuentas decidí que en este caso privilegiaría la ergonomía sobre ese detalle que mas bien parece error de diseño en la herramienta: en fin vamos a ver como se comporta en mis tareas que no son de alta demanda en el día a día sino esporádicas
