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 125mm sibling of the GA043, with the same premium feature set: keyless X-LOCK changes, AWS wireless extractor start, a five-stage variable-speed dial and an electric brake, on the 40V XGT platform. Brushless with soft start, Star Protection and AFT bind-sensing, and low vibration for a 125 at 4.2 m/s². It uses a lock-on slide switch rather than the GA043's paddle, so pick it if you grind for long spells and want to hold the switch on.
