Where it sits among 125mm angle grinders

Scaled against the 59 angle grinders with a 125mm disc we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.

The verdictOur take

The DGA504 is an earlier brushless 125mm LXT grinder with soft start and automatic speed control, but no electric brake. The newer DGA513 adds a brake and AFT kickback protection for the same slide-switch layout.
