The covers features built-in task lights for precise work, while the motor is a split capacitor type for higher efficiency with reduced noise and vibration. With a single-speed high RPM bench grinder, there is more risk of overheating when sharpening tools, and you could ruin a perfectly good edge. The Dewalt or a Jet bench grinder are popular choices, depending on if you want the best or the best value. Speed control or speed. Essential for reducing or increasing the speed of the wheel according to the requirements of the job. You will definitely get more use out of an 8” grinder and a variety of wheels than you would with a 6” grinder and the same set of wheels. Choosing the best bench grinders

The BG150CX bench grinder from Sealey is the first member of a range of bench grinders from the company. The BG150CX represents their most basic model, which means it has the minimum of features but also the lowest of prices. Like many other budget machines, it belongs to a family of ‘generic’ machines that are often sourced from the same manufacturer, coloured and then badged with the insignia of the retail distributor, in this case, Sealey. As with most other consumer bench grinders, the Titan comes with coarse and fine grinding discs, namely 30-grit and 60-grit wheels, but as an added bonus, a useful brush wheel is also included in the box. Unfortunately, however, not a lot of thought has gone into the use of wire wheels on the Titan grinder as the included one can sometimes partially brush against the wheel guard securing bolts which protrude a fair amount. Continuous striking of these bolts with the wire wheel will eventually damage them making removal of the wheel guard more problematic. One option is not to use the wheel guard at all when using a wire wheel but this poses an increased safety risk to the operator and is not recommended.You can use your bench grinder as an effective buffer or polisher simply by attaching a buffing wheel in place of the grinder. Grits also come in different colors, which indicate the type of material used. Like grit sizes, different colors are better suited for different purposes. Work light. An onboard light will help you see what you are doing and spare you the hassle of setting up a lamp near your work area. Whether you go for a pro or DIY model though, one thing that’s good about DIY brands is the variable speed setting.

Bench Grinder Reviews in the UK: Which is the Best Bench

The Sealey BG150XLW/98 is a powerful bench grinder that comes with a grinding wheel and one wire wheel. It has a 370W motor that is strong enough to grind some of the harder metals, and it can be used for longer than budget models before it needs to be given a rest to cool down. The wire wheel is useful for removing old coatings on metal objects such as paint or rust and of course other wheels can be swapped into place of the grinding wheel or the wire wheel as needed. The unit runs smoothly, with little vibration, but it still needs to be bolted down to the workbench to ensure it does not move at all. Niggles with the Sealey bench grinder are common to most bench grinders in this price range, for instance, care still needs to be taken not to put too much pressure on the spinning wheels as this will cause them to slow down, reducing its ability to effectively grind or polish. Essentially, once you have decided on the grinding wheel diameter to go for, usually either 6" (150mm) or 8" (200mm), it simply then becomes a matter of buying the highest-powered machine that you can afford, while keeping an eye out for the features that each offers. Those features include the ability to change out the wheels for different types of grinding wheels, wire wheels, or polishing mops, endowing the humble bench grinder with a whole range of capabilities. An integrated light isn’t essential, but it does come in handy for working in low-light conditions. Even if your workshop is brightly lit, having a light on your bench grinder will let you see the workpiece more easily. Pressing too hard could remove too much material and increase the possibility of overheating. Single-speed bench grinder comparison

Use the appropriate grindstone grits for the job at hand - Coarser grit wheels will remove material faster leaving less time for the tool or the wheel to heat up. Therefore, use harsher wheels when a lot of material needs to be removed. In contrast, finer wheels are used for removing smaller amounts of material, such as when finishing off a blade edge. However, if the blade is chipped or is overly dull and more material needs to be removed to reform a uniform blade edge, a coarser wheel may be needed initially.

Disk size. Smaller disk sizes have a more acute curvature, which might be better suited for certain tasks, while larger disk sizes are generally more versatile. You do have to choose the right wheels for this grinder, as it can wobble a bit with cheaper wheels. But get some good quality wheels on it, and the performance is stable and reliable. Know the maximum speed of the grinding wheel and the bench grinder - When purchasing new grinding wheels, make sure that the maximum speed of the wheel is not lower than the rotational speed of the bench grinder it is to run on otherwise spinning the wheel at too high a speed can cause it to disintegrate during use and presents a safety hazard.Finally, one feature on the Titan that we don’t particularly like is the use of a 16 mm spindle bore. Most consumer bench grinders come with a 12.7 mm spindle and the majority of grinding wheels on sale to the consumer tend to cater to this smaller spindle, either by having 12.7mm bore holes or by coming which bushes that adapt them to this smaller shaft size. This makes finding replacement grinding discs and other wheel types for the Titan bench grinder slightly more difficult and seems like an unnecessary complication. Dress the bench grinder periodically - Grindstone surfaces slowly wear down and often become clogged with metal filings during use. To rejuvenate the grinding surface, use a diamond-studded dressing tool to eliminate the metal filings and to expose fresh grit on the grindstone wheel surface. One way to be sure that you have dressed the wheel sufficiently is to draw a pencil line on the wheel and continue the dressing process until the pencil line disappears. Note, however, that the dust created from grindstone dressing is hazardous to your health so make sure to wear a dust mask! Apart from the magnifying lens in the guard, this is a great grinder. My personal feeling is the magnifier is not useful and is distracting so it will be replaced with a standard one. The grinder is very quiet and well balanced. The built in lights are a great feature, more so if you have a dark shed.
