Bosch Blue Power Tools  has launched a new generation of safety angle grinders that combine high level protection with powerful performance.

The newly introduced ‘Power and Protection’ series from Bosch Blue comprises of a new range of angle grinders incorporating exceptional safety features, making it easier for tradesmen to satisfy the growing demands of work safety. As work sites demand increasingly rigorous standards of safety, it’s essential that tradesmen equip themselves with the right tools to protect themselves during operation.

Safety features such as restart protection, kickback stop and vibration control combine with up to 1500 watts of power to deliver consistent performance in extremely tough applications such as cutting steel pipes and profiles to length, removing welded seams, deburring moulded parts, or cutting stone and tiles.
 
The angle grinders also feature a tool-free adjustable protective guard, ergonomic design and large spindle lock button for quick and easy accessory changes. The angle grinders offer a long lifespan, as well as a carbon brush lifetime.

The new safety angle grinders are particularly useful for tradesmen working in refineries, cranes, oil platforms, major construction and steel construction sites, ships, tanks and container constructions.

The ‘Power and Protection’ series comprises of four 5” models, which add to the extensive range of 5” to 9” safety grinders in the Bosch Blue portfolio. The new generation models are also available in Dead Man Switch options.
