Benjamin Wilber (Hell)
I bought this die grinder and a ingersoll rand 3102 super duty right angle die grinder 2 months ago for use at my job as a welder. These 2 die grinders are the worst and most expensive by far in the shop.
First off most air tools will have something on them to adjust their speed, these being no different except for the fact that they don't work. The screws which are supposed to be able to allow the airflow pressure to be reduced don't work at all. It is full blast at all times.
Secondly, if the die grinder bits are fastened down with enough force where the bits won't fly out of the collet when being used then the ball bearings buzz and rub very strongly. These die grinders feel as though they are extremely worn out unless the bit is not securely fastened. There is no middle ground, it is one or the other and take it from someone with tendonitis, they feel like hell to use.
Thirdly, the fastening tools provided by IR bend very easily. Expect only about 10 uses out of them before you will have to switch to conventional wrenches, metric of course.
The bottom line is: don't waste your money on these. The cheaper no names out perform the 3102 and 3108 any day of the week. I bought expensive die grinders thinking that they will feel better to use and last longer; don't make the same mistake that I did.
