Good to know

  • Always pair concrete grinding with a shroud and a vacuum. Dry hand grinding fills the breathing zone with respirable silica and contaminates the floor you are about to coat.
  • The accessory decides the job. Cup wheel for grinding, PCD for coating removal, diamond blade for cutting. Do not try to strip a thick coating with a grinding wheel.
  • Confirm wheel capacity, guard mount and spindle thread against the manufacturer's documentation before buying accessories for this model.
  • Edge work sets the appearance of the whole floor. A perimeter ground to a different profile than the field shows through the finished coating.

About the Metabo Angular Grinder

A hand angle grinder is the second machine on every concrete floor job. The walk-behind covers the field and then stops several inches short of every wall, and everything left over, perimeters, corners, closets, stairs, columns, curbs and thresholds, gets done by hand. This Metabo angle grinder is the tool for that work.

What it does depends entirely on what you fit to it. With a diamond cup wheel it grinds concrete and creates profile at the perimeter to match the field. With PCD tooling it strips coatings, mastic and glue in areas a big machine cannot reach. With a diamond blade it cuts. The grinder is the power source, the accessory decides the job.

Run it with dust capture. Hand grinding concrete without a shroud and vacuum puts respirable silica straight into the operator's breathing zone and coats the entire job with fine dust that then has to be cleaned before coating. A 7 inch aluminum dust shroud, a 2 inch hose and a dust extractor turn this from the dirtiest tool on the site into a controlled one. Dust control is a system, and the grinder is only one part of it.

Before ordering accessories, confirm the specifications of the machine against what you intend to mount. Wheel size capacity, guard mounting, spindle thread and the grinder's rated speed all determine what accessories are safe and appropriate, and those are figures to verify against Metabo's documentation for this exact model rather than assume. Call 817-676-6793 and we will confirm which shroud and tooling combination fits the model you are buying.

What it is used for

  • Edge and perimeter grinding to match the field after a walk-behind pass
  • Coating and mastic removal in corners, closets and stairwells
  • Column, curb, threshold and stair prep
  • Detail cutting and grinding on repair and patch work

Questions about this product

What is an angle grinder used for on concrete floor jobs?

A hand angle grinder handles everything a walk-behind floor grinder cannot reach on a concrete job, which means perimeters, corners, closets, stairs, columns, curbs and thresholds, and fitted with a diamond cup wheel it creates profile at the edges to match the field the big machine already ground.

Do I need a dust shroud with this grinder?

You need a dust shroud with this grinder for any concrete grinding, because a hand grinder without a shroud and vacuum puts respirable silica straight into the operator's breathing zone and covers the job with fine dust that has to be removed before any coating goes down.

Can this grinder remove epoxy coatings?

An angle grinder removes epoxy coatings when it is fitted with PCD tooling designed for that job, since polycrystalline diamond shears epoxy, mastic and glue off the slab, while a conventional diamond cup wheel loads up and glazes over in soft coating. Match the accessory to the material.

What accessories fit this Metabo grinder?

Accessory fitment on any angle grinder depends on wheel size capacity, guard mounting and spindle thread, so confirm those against the manufacturer's documentation for this exact model before buying cup wheels, PCD tooling or a shroud. Call 817-676-6793 with the model and we will confirm the combination.

Is a hand grinder enough to prep a whole garage floor?

A hand grinder can prep a small area, but grinding an entire garage floor by hand is slow, inconsistent and hard on the operator, and it usually produces a visibly uneven profile under the coating. Most crews run a walk-behind machine across the field and use the hand grinder for edges only.
