Compact pneumatic grinder for auto work
The STEELMAN 1562A is a mini angle die grinder built for automotive repair, weld preparation, rust removal and polishing. It runs on compressed air at 90 PSI and consumes 4 cubic feet per minute. A 1/4-inch collet accepts a wide range of accessory heads for versatile use. The tool measures 6 3/4 inches long and weighs 1.70 lb.
Upgrading from larger or fixed-speed air tools
This grinder replaces bulkier die grinders that lack variable speed control or a compact profile. The built-in regulator allows speed adjustment through the tease-trigger for precise material removal. A safety trigger lock prevents accidental starts without hindering normal operation. The jump is worth it when workspace is tight and fine speed control matters.
Suits technicians needing a light.
Mechanics and fabricators who want a short, lightweight grinder for detail work will benefit from the 18,000 RPM free speed and 1/4-inch NPT inlet. Buyers who need higher torque for heavy stock removal or a larger collet capacity should look at something else. The tool carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects.
