Festool welcomes a new addition
to the 18-volt family: The new AGC
18 cordless angle grinder boasts a
durable design and perfect ergonomic
features for cutting work.
“With the new AGC 18, we are offering
a battery-operated powerhouse that
sets new standards both in terms
of durability and with its excellent
ergonomics. The new cordless angle
grinder is suitable for carpenters,
joiners and painters equally, as it
can be used to complete cutting
tasks and small sanding jobs on
construction sites without any
cables,” explains José Kunze, trained
carpenter and application specialist
at Festool. Clever detail: The compact
powerhouse fits into the Systainer
with the battery and sanding tool
fitted – so it takes no time at all
to pack and unpack. The lockable
spindle and quick-action clamping
nut easily ensure fast disc changes
while working without the need for
tools. The AGC 18 also impresses
with regard to ergonomics: The on/
off switch is ideally positioned for
cutting tasks – the entire device is
perfectly balanced. In addition, the
EC-TEC motor offers particularly
smooth operation and low vibrations.
To achieve this result, the motor and
housing have been disconnected.
The new cordless angle grinder will
be available at specialist retailers
from September 2019. Visit

superb new products.
Hultafors Tools has launched a
new range of ‘Snap-Off’ Knives for
professional craftsmen and women.

and long life built in to suit regular
hard work on site.
