Aircat Pneumatic Tools 6525-A In-Line Cut-Off Tool | 3 HP | 18000 RPM | 3" Wheel Size | Rear Exhaust

When cut-off work requires a straight, in-line tool layout instead of a conventional side-handle cutter, the AIRCAT 6525-A 3" In-Line Cut-Off Tool gives technicians a compact pneumatic cutter for sheet metal, rolled steel, brackets, clamps, fasteners, panels, and repair hardware. Its 0.6 HP motor and 18,000 RPM free speed support use with compatible properly rated 3" cut-off wheels. The side-mounted wheel and in-line motor help the operator make straighter cuts through compatible materials, making this tool useful for automotive repair, body shop work, fabrication, equipment service, and MRO cutting tasks.

AIRCAT lists the 6525-A with a 3/8" rolled steel / 18 gauge cutting capacity, giving technicians a controlled option for small metal cutting and repair preparation. At 2.20 lbs. and 7.95" long, this in-line cut-off tool provides a compact body size for working around panels, brackets, clamps, exhaust hardware, and service areas. The adjustable 9-position indexible guard lets the operator reposition the guard for access and protection, while the rear exhaust directs air away from the work area.
