The Ultimate Guide to Choosing a Dynabrade Die Grinder

A Dynabrade Die Grinder is used to finish, buff and shape various any material. These versatile tools are designed for intricate manufacturing and industrial use, and can withstand heavy usage over long periods of time – far beyond their DIY store equivalents.

Many Dynabrade die grinders are air powered and offer superb precision and durability. DynaShop stocks every Dynabrade die grinder, part and accessory, so we are your one stop shop, no matter what the job entails. Each tool is manufactured in the USA, close to Dynabrade’s headquarters in New York state.

Dynabrade Die Grinder: Safety and Warranty

Each Dynabrade die grinder has a safety lock lever to prevent injury. Handles are designed to minimise fatigue or injury from vibration or strain. Some models have a conductive hose to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD).

If a Dynabrade tool malfunctions, it can be returned to Dynabrade for repair or replacement. All models are covered by a comprehensive guarantee for the life of the tool.

Ensure your tool is used with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator to comply with the warranty conditions, and check the RPM with a tachometer to ensure correct speed.
