Aircat Pneumatic Tools 6265 Composite Angle Die Grinder | 1 HP | 18000 RPM | 1/4" Collet Size | Rear Exhaust

When right-angle grinding, deburring, and finishing work requires the higher output of a 1 HP tool, the AIRCAT 6265 1/4" Composite Angle Die Grinder gives technicians a powerful pneumatic grinder for controlled material removal in confined or awkward work areas. Its 1.0 HP motor and 18,000 RPM free speed support work with compatible mounted stones, carbide burrs, sanding accessories, and other properly rated rotary accessories. The 1/4" collet size accepts matching 1/4" shank accessories for edge cleanup, burr removal, gasket-surface preparation, casting cleanup, weld-detail blending, smoothing, porting, and general shop finishing.

At 1.80 lbs. and 9.50" long, the 6265 provides a right-angle head layout with enough body length for control during repeated grinding and finishing tasks. The spiral bevel gear design transfers power through the angled head, while the rear exhaust directs air away from the front of the tool and work surface. AIRCAT lists this model with a 1 HP non-stall motor, feather trigger for improved speed control, an ergonomically designed housing and throttle lever, and superior steel grade internal bevel gears for longer service life.
