Origin

Metalworking with an angle grinder, even for a limited time, is known to quickly produce fatigue in the hands and joints from the vibrations. By significantly reducing the weight and improving the ergonomic design, the Ingersoll Rand G5351 empowers technicians to comfortably work longer and in tighter spaces. 

Manufacturing/engineering specifications

The G5351 measures 13.25" in length and weighs just over 5 lbs. It produces 1hp and 8,000 rpm.
