Makita’s ¼-Inch Die Grinder (model GD0601) combines power and speed with motor-protection features for improved grinding performance. The GD0601 is engineered with a powerful 25,000 RPM AC/DC motor with front and rear air vents to run cooler under continuous use. The vents are also engineered to keep the motor cool and blow debris away from the user for improved visibility.

Makita has engineered comfort and ergonomics into the grinder for professional use all day long. The slim body design features a conveniently located slide-switch for on/off function, and includes an AC/DC switch for use with alternative power sources. This combination of power and ease-of-use features makes the GD0601 ideal for a range of grinding tasks.

To protect the motor from debris, the grinder is built with a labyrinth construction that seals the motor and bearings by creating a complex set of channels, extending the life of the tool. In addition, the armature is sealed by a protective zig-zag varnish which prevents contamination by creating a barrier under rotation.
