Description

The DGA517 is a 125mm grinder with a paddle switch which is capable of running ar speeds up to 3000 rpm. It has a variable speed control dial for greater versatility with attachments like polishing accessories, strip discs and flap discs, along with Active Feedback Sensing Technology and Automatic Torque Drive Technology for maintaining high levels of safety and performance during use.
