Lots of animals, including various mammals, birds, crocodilia, and fish use relatively simple tools, but only homo sapiens are known for developing complex machines. Whether it's our ability to comprehend symbols and express them with words, or our capacity for abstract thinking, it's easy to see that our mental faculties are rivaled by few, if any other species on Earth.Īnother characteristically human activity is advanced tool use. The way humans interact with the world around us largely separates us from the rest of the animal kingdom. Use caution when using either to avoid personal injury. We can reliably predict that frequent users will need to replace the brushes quite often.Īir compressors and die grinders are inherently dangerous. Both are well-made, however, there is a justified concern about both using brushed DC motors instead of brushless DC motors given that die grinders are 'continuous operation' tools. If you don't have access to compressed air, you might consider either the DeWalt DWE4887 or the Makita GD0601. This is opposed to the angled gear mechanism of models like the Ingersoll Rand 301B which introduce the possibility of gear binding if they are not properly lubricated. Both use direct drive mechanisms to transfer the power of the motor to the collet without sacrificing speed. That, along with the fact that it is quite difficult to draw a sharp distinction between the two styles other than the power source led us to include both electric and pneumatic models.īoth the Chicago Pneumatic CP860 and the Aircat 6260 are excellent options with great performance. While the word 'die grinder' tends to be used to refer to pneumatically powered rotary tools, it technically includes light-duty electric rotary tools as well. Removed the Dremel 8220-2/28 because of availability concerns. For that, you'll generally need a relatively powerful air compressor, as handheld compressors won't cut it, and even many pancake compressors lead to prohibitively short duty cycles. Of course, it's worth noting that while there are some great electric models out there, such as the Makita GD0601 and DeWalt DWE4887 that can both run on either AC or DC power, you'll get by far the best performance out of an air-powered model. Without any recent major changes to the industry, all our die grinder recommendations remain the same.
