Review on Angle grinder Makita GA5040C, 1400 W, 125 mm, without battery by Wiktor Sakowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

A very worthy tool. The best grinder among analogues. At the moment, she did not work much, but there is something to compare with. I own a Makita 9565CVR (the second one in the photo), which everyone praises, but it loses in all respects to the GA5040c with the same characteristics. The handle angles are different. In ga5040c it is sharper than in 9565CVR, but this is an amateur and not a fundamental difference.

Pros
  • Quiet operation (compared to Makita 9565CVR). The sound of the grinder itself allows you to work without headphones, only if the consumable is noisy. Smooth start. No vibration. An anti-vibration handle is not needed. Convenient power button (compared to Bosch 9-125S and Makita 9565CVR) The ventilation slots are curved (compared to the Makita 9565CVR where the innards are visible), which means less dust inside. The case is comfortable to hold even with one hand, has ribs (compared to Makita 9565CVR, where the case is oval and without ribs) A long soft wire is 4m (although the description says 2.5m everywhere). For example, in the earlier Makita 9565CVR, it is 2.5 and oak, although rubber. Wide helical gears in the gearbox (compared to the Makita 9565CVR, where they are narrow, which is why they ring) As many as three ball bearings in the gearbox, in comparison with analogues, where there are bushings (for Bosch) or needle bearings (for example, Metabo). Maintainability. The price among famous brands is the best and most affordable parts. The gearbox is better than the 95 series and does not heat up like the Makita 9565CVR. Metal flange of the gearbox (cover), in comparison with Metabo and Bosch, which has a positive effect on cooling, durability and maintainability.
Cons
  • Could still put the handle and better. Yes, and a quick-release nut or superflange would not interfere for such a price.
