Specifications

Same summary

The Bosch GWS 17-125 SB Professional angle grinder, with its 1700 W power and 125 mm disc diameter, meets the needs of demanding DIYers or ambitious users who often work with metal or building materials. It is suitable for precise edge grinding, surface preparation and removal of old paint on medium-sized surfaces, where maneuverability and control are important. For very fine finishing work or work in the most difficult to reach places, it will be slightly less practical due to the size of the disc - here a smaller or more specialized version is recommended. The model offers a balance between performance and wider usability, but is not intended exclusively for specialized tasks, such as grinding large areas of concrete or industrial use without a break.
