A bench grinder is a very handy tool to have in a workshop or garage. Bench grinders, as the name suggests, are designed to be securely bolted to a solid workbench or sturdy table.

Bench grinders usually consist of two rotating grinding wheels which can be used to grind down metal components.

The grinding wheels of bench grinders are removable, and they can be swapped depending on what they are to be used for. They can even be fitted with round metal brushes for cleaning metal parts from rust and caked on debris.

Bench grinders can cause severe injury if used incorrectly. So make sure you know what you're doing before using one.
