Chicago Pneumatic Straight Die Grinder | CP3000-515R | 15000 RPM | 1/4" (6 mm) Collet

Built for controlled deburring, grinding, and finishing in production and maintenance environments, the Chicago Pneumatic CP3000-515R Straight Die Grinder delivers 15,000 RPM free speed for carbide burrs, mounted grinding stones, and compatible abrasive accessories. Its straight body gives operators direct access to edges, holes, weld details, castings, and machined surfaces without the extra length of an extended-shaft grinder. Powered by a 0.7 HP / 500 W pneumatic motor, this model provides more power than lower-output CP3000 variants while keeping a compact body for bench work, fabrication stations, and general shop use.

The CP3000-515R uses a 15/64" / 6.0 mm collet as listed in the supplied catalog data for holding compatible shank-mounted accessories. At 7.68" / 195 mm long and 1.88 lb / 0.86 kg, it is easy to position around fixtures, repair parts, and workpieces where a larger grinder would slow the operator down. Rear exhaust directs spent air away from the work surface, while the safety lever start helps reduce accidental start risk during daily deburring, cleaning, polishing, and light grinding tasks.

Features:

• 15,000 RPM free speed supports controlled work with carbide burrs and mounted grinding stones where moderate speed and steady handling are important.
• 0.7 HP / 500 W pneumatic motor provides strong output for a compact straight die grinder in deburring, cleaning, grinding, and finishing operations.
• Straight body layout gives direct tool control for accessible edges, drilled holes, weld areas, castings, and machined surfaces.
• Rear exhaust helps direct air away from the workpiece and the operator's immediate line of sight.
• Safety lever starting system helps reduce accidental start risk during tool handling and setup.
• Composite over-sleeve provides a more manageable grip surface over the aluminum housing during repeated grinding tasks.
• Erickson Series 200 collet system supports secure holding of compatible shank-mounted abrasive accessories when the correct collet is installed.
• Industrial grade durability up to 1,000 hours between maintenance intervals, as listed for the CP3000 die grinder range.

Applications:

• Metal fabrication: deburring drilled holes, cleaning cut edges, blending small weld areas, and shaping metal with compatible burrs.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO: smoothing repair parts, cleaning brackets, preparing machine components, and removing minor surface defects.
• Foundry and casting cleanup: removing flash, parting lines, and rough edges from accessible casting surfaces.
• Machining and toolroom work: edge breaking, contouring, polishing, and finishing fixtures, dies, molds, and machined parts.
• Vehicle and equipment repair: cleaning fabricated brackets, panels, frames, and repair components in compressed-air service areas.

FAQs:

• Q: What is the CP3000-515R best used for?
  A: The CP3000-515R is used for deburring, cleaning, grinding, polishing, and finishing with compatible carbide burrs or mounted grinding stones. Its 15,000 RPM speed makes it a good choice when the job calls for controlled material removal rather than very high-speed fine deburring.
• Q: What collet size does this grinder use?
  A: The supplied catalog data lists a 15/64" / 6.0 mm collet for this model. Chicago Pneumatic web technical data may list a 1/4" / 6.4 mm maximum collet capacity for the CP3000 range, so confirm the installed collet before matching accessories.
• Q: How does the CP3000-515R compare with faster CP3000 die grinders?
  A: The CP3000-515R runs at 15,000 RPM, while other CP3000 models are available at higher speeds. Choose this model when you want more controlled abrasive contact and 0.7 HP / 500 W power rather than maximum free speed.
• Q: What air supply does the CP3000-515R require?
  A: Chicago Pneumatic lists 25 CFM / 12 l/s air consumption at load. Use an air system capable of maintaining 90 PSI / 6.3 bar at the tool through a minimum 3/8" / 10 mm hose.
• Q: Can this grinder use any mounted point or carbide burr?
  A: No. The accessory must match the installed collet size and must have a maximum operating speed equal to or higher than the grinder's 15,000 RPM free speed. Always confirm shank size, accessory type, workpiece material, and abrasive safety rating before use.
