Built for die and mold work, bench deburring, and close-control material removal, the Dotco 10L1080-36 Inline Grinder pairs a compact straight-body layout with 0.3 HP of pneumatic power for detail grinding where larger tools are difficult to manage. It's 30,000 RPM free speed helps carbide burrs and mounted wheels cut cleanly on small edges, ports, slots, and contours, while the 1/4" collet holds compatible 1/4" shank accessories securely for routine deburring and finishing tasks.
The 10-10 Series aluminum housing keeps the tool light at 0.7 lb, helping technicians maintain fingertip control during repetitive bench work, toolroom touch-ups, and repair operations. A rear exhaust configuration routes discharge air away from the work area, and the lock-off lever helps reduce accidental starts while the grinder is being handled or repositioned.

FAQs:
- Q: What accessories can be used with the Dotco 10L1080-36?
A: This grinder uses a 1/4" collet for compatible 1/4" shank accessories. The listed abrasive capacity is 1/2" carbide burrs and 1" mounted wheels. - Q: What does rear exhaust mean on this inline grinder?
A: Rear exhaust means the tool vents air toward the back of the grinder instead of toward the workpiece. This helps keep chips, dust, and exhaust air from blowing directly across the contact area. - Q: Can I run a mounted wheel on this tool?
A: Yes, the grinder lists capacity for a 1" mounted wheel, but the mounted wheel must be rated for at least 30,000 RPM. Always follow the accessory manufacturer’s mounting, overhang, and operating instructions. - Q: What air setup does this grinder require?
A: Manufacturer data rates tool performance at 90 PSI and lists a 1/4" minimum hose I.D. Air consumption was not provided in the supplied catalog data, so verify compressor capacity before using the tool continuously in production. - Q: Are burrs or mounted wheels included?
A: The standard equipment listed for this series includes the applicable collet and collet wrenches. Carbide burrs, mounted wheels, and other abrasive accessories should be selected separately for the material and task.
