DEWALT DCG405 is an 18 V XR cordless brushless angle grinder built for cutting, grinding, sanding and surface preparation using 125 mm (5″) discs. It’s supplied as a bare machine tool only, meaning batteries and charger are not included, giving you flexibility if you already have DEWALT XR lithium–ion batteries.

The DCG405 uses a brushless motor for improved efficiency, longer runtime, and greater durability compared with brushed models — helping you get more work done per charge.
🛠 Flat‑Head Gear Case
This grinder features a flat‑head gearbox that allows better access in tight or constrained spaces, making it ideal for flush cutting and angled work.

Its slim body with rubber over‑mould provides enhanced grip and comfort, while the adjustable side handle (2 positions) gives you control during long cutting or grinding sessions.
