Score: 80/100
DEWALT DWE4887 1-1-inch
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Ingersoll Rand 5102MAX is a right-angle air die grinder featuring a 0.4 HP motor and 20,000 RPM free speed, designed for precision grinding and weld removal. Its main trade-offs are moderate speed and higher air consumption. It is best suited for professional welders and automotive repair technicians needing right-angle access in tight spaces.
The DeWalt DWE4887 is a corded die grinder with a 4.2 amp motor delivering 25,000 RPM, designed for professional welders and fabricators. Its key advantage is AC/DC compatibility for field use, though the 8-foot cord limits mobility. It is best suited for industrial users needing high-speed grinding in welding shops or fabrication environments.
