Its 6,500-RPM motor and 4-1/2-inch-diameter cutting wheel are perfectly engineered to cut and grind metal. From rusted rebar and steel I-beams to resilient threaded rod and corroded angle iron, its abrasive wheel will slice through most metals quickly and cleanly. And since there's no cord to drag around, you can work un-tethered anywhere at any height or angle. Besides the cutting and grinding wheel, this versatile tool will also accept a Zirconia-grit flap disk, stringer wire wheel, and rubber-backed sanding disc, allowing you to clean, smooth, shape and finish a wide variety of materials, including steel, wood and masonry. The DC411B has a low-profile, jam-pot housing that ensures precise gear alignment for a smoother, quieter transmission while allowing access to tight, narrow spaces. Other commercial-grade features include a two-position side handle, large trigger switch with lock-off button, and quick-change wheel release. The DC411B comes with a Type 27 safety guard, Type 1 cutting wheel and safety guard, two matched flanges, wrench, and side handle. It's backed by DeWalt's 90-day money-back guarantee, full one-year service contract, and three-year limited warranty. The battery and charger are sold separately.

This grinder works great, but I only suggest it for when there isn't an outlet near by to plug in a corded one. With a fully charged lithium XRP battery, you get about 4 - 5 minutes of work before the battery dies. After experiencing the limited life of this grinder, I thought about returning it for another corded one, but I have come across some instances where there either wasn't an outlet near by or my extension cords were quite long enough to reach my project. I decided to keep it for just those situations.

A corded one is also rated at a higher amperage, so this is best for light duty projects. I definitely would suggest only having this as an accessory to a corded grinder.
