Cleco 2260AGL-07 High Performance Right Angle Grinder | 2260 Series | 2.2 HP | 8,400 RPM | 2.9" Head | Aluminum Housing

Built for large-area weld grinding, bevel work, casting cleanup, and metal surface preparation, the Cleco 2260AGL-07 right angle grinder delivers the power and wheel capacity needed for high-output pneumatic grinding. Its 2.2 HP motor gives operators the force required for aggressive stock removal, while the 8,400 RPM governed free speed helps maintain productive abrasive performance under load. With a 7" abrasive capacity, this model gives more wheel coverage than the 6" version, making it a strong fit for broad weld seams, plate edges, structural members, and heavy fabrication cleanup.

Part of the Cleco 2260 Series, the 2260AGL-07 combines an aluminum housing, 2.9" head height, and 5/8"-11 external thread spindle for use with compatible 7" Type 27/42 depressed-center abrasive wheels. The right angle configuration places the wheel perpendicular to the tool body, giving operators better control when working across flat steel, around weldments, and into fabrication fixtures. A reversible safety lever throttle, dual auxiliary handle positions, industrial governor, and CAGI-compliant guarding support safer, more controlled grinding in production and MRO environments.

Applications:

• Heavy fabrication — grinding structural welds, smoothing plate edges, cleaning flame-cut surfaces, and preparing steel before fit-up or coating.
• Foundry and casting work — reducing gates, risers, flash, and rough casting areas where a larger 7" wheel improves coverage.
• Shipyard and rail repair — removing scale, dressing repair welds, and cleaning large metal assemblies during maintenance and overhaul work.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO — preparing worn machine frames, brackets, guards, and equipment bases for repair welding or refinishing.
• Heavy equipment service — grinding bucket edges, frame sections, wear plates, and attachment points during rebuild and field repair operations.

FAQs:

• Q: What wheel size does the Cleco 2260AGL-07 use?
  A: The 2260AGL-07 is specified for 7" / 180 mm Type 27/42 abrasives. Any wheel used on this grinder must be compatible with the tool, guard, spindle, and 8,400 RPM operating speed.
• Q: How is the 2260AGL-07 different from the 2260AGL-06?
  A: Both models are 2260 Series 2.2 HP right angle grinders rated at 8,400 RPM. The 2260AGL-07 is configured for 7" abrasives, while the 2260AGL-06 is configured for 6" abrasives.
• Q: What does 5/8"-11 external thread mean?
  A: It refers to the grinder spindle thread size. 5/8"-11 is a common North American grinder spindle thread, but buyers should still confirm the abrasive wheel, flange, guard, and mounting hardware are correct for this specific tool.
• Q: What air supply is required for this grinder?
  A: The catalog lists 33.6 SCFM at free speed, 90 PSI operating pressure, and a 3/4" minimum hose I.D. Use a compressor and air distribution system capable of maintaining that airflow during grinding.
• Q: Is this grinder suitable for small deburring or carbide burr work?
  A: No. This is a 7" right angle wheel grinder for larger abrasive grinding jobs. For small part deburring, hole cleanup, or carbide burr work, choose a Cleco die grinder with the correct collet size instead.
