Chicago Pneumatic Angle Grinder | CP3650-100AB6V | 10000 RPM | 6" Wheel Size

Built for 6" wheel grinding, cutting, and surface preparation where vibration control is important, the Chicago Pneumatic CP3650-100AB6V angle grinder delivers 10,000 RPM free speed for controlled work with properly rated abrasive wheels. Its 2.3 HP / 1695 W governed pneumatic motor helps maintain wheel speed during weld cleanup, edge grinding, cutting, and metal surface preparation. The 6" / 150 mm wheel capacity provides more coverage than 4-1/2" and 5" grinders while remaining easier to manage than larger 7" wheel tools. A 5/8"-11 UNC spindle thread supports common North American wheel hardware when the wheel type, guard, and speed rating match the application.

The CP3650-100AB6V adds an autobalancer, a built-in balancing system that helps reduce vibration while the wheel is running. This makes the model useful for repeated grinding passes where control, finish consistency, and reduced hand fatigue are important selection factors. A keyless pull-and-turn swiveling guard provides 360° rotation with indexed positions, while the spindle lock button helps speed up abrasive disc changes. The steel swiveling air inlet helps reduce hose drag, and the aluminum body with composite over-sleeve gives the operator a manageable grip surface during production, repair, and MRO work.

Features:

• 10,000 RPM free speed supports controlled grinding and cutting with compatible 6" abrasive wheels.
• 2.3 HP / 1695 W governed motor helps maintain productive wheel speed during weld cleanup, edge grinding, cutting, and surface preparation.
• Autobalancer helps reduce vibration during repeated grinding passes compared with non-balanced configurations.
• 6" / 150 mm wheel capacity provides more coverage than smaller grinder formats while preserving better handling than larger 7" tools.
• 5/8"-11 UNC spindle thread supports compatible wheel hardware when the correct guard and abrasive accessory are selected.
• Keyless pull-and-turn swiveling guard offers 360° rotation with 15 guard positions for faster guard adjustment.
• Spindle lock button helps reduce abrasive disc change time between cutting, grinding, and surface preparation operations.
• Steel swiveling air inlet and vibration-damping side handle help improve handling around frames, weldments, fixtures, and workpieces.

Applications:

• Metal fabrication: grinding weld seams, cleaning cut edges, removing burrs, and preparing steel or aluminum parts before finishing.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO: rust removal, wheel-based cutting, surface cleanup, and repair work on guards, covers, fixtures, and plant hardware.
• Frame and equipment service: grinding supports, tabs, brackets, repair plates, and structural components where a 6" wheel is appropriate.
• Production grinding cells: repeated abrasive wheel work where the autobalancer helps reduce vibration during longer operating cycles.
• Workshop and field service: pneumatic grinding and cutting for users with a compressed-air system capable of supporting the tool's high air demand.

FAQs:

• Q: What wheels can be used with the CP3650-100AB6V?
  A: Use compatible 6" / 150 mm Type 27 abrasive wheels that match the 5/8"-11 UNC spindle setup, guard configuration, wheel inner diameter, and work application. The wheel's maximum operating speed must equal or exceed the grinder's 10,000 RPM free speed.
• Q: What does the autobalancer do?
  A: The autobalancer helps reduce vibration by improving wheel balance while the grinder is running. This can improve control during repeated grinding passes and helps distinguish this model from the non-autobalancer CP3650-100AB6.
• Q: How is the CP3650-100AB6V different from the CP3650-100AB6?
  A: Both are 6", 10,000 RPM CP3650 angle grinders with a 5/8"-11 UNC spindle, but the CP3650-100AB6V includes an autobalancer. Choose the V model when reduced vibration is an important part of the grinding setup.
• Q: What air supply does this angle grinder require?
  A: Chicago Pneumatic lists 61.4 CFM / 29.0 l/s air consumption at load and 33.1 CFM / 15.6 l/s at free speed. Use a compressed-air system that can maintain 90 PSI / 6.3 bar at the tool through a minimum 1/2" / 13 mm hose.
• Q: How does this 6" grinder compare with 5" CP3650 models?
  A: The CP3650-100AB6V uses a larger 6" wheel and runs at 10,000 RPM. The 5" CP3650 models run at 12,000 RPM and are more compact, while this 6" model provides more wheel coverage per pass.
