Diamax Cyclone Pneumatic Air Grinder – 6 in. Guard, 5/8-11 Spindle, 10,000 RPM
The Diamax Cyclone Pneumatic Air Grinder is a pneumatic air grinder with a 6 in. guard for grinding and cutting with an air tool at grinder speeds.
It runs to 10,000 RPM — roughly twice the speed of the air polishers in the same range — which is the difference between a polishing tool and a grinding one.
Key Features

Not Recommended For
Not a polishing tool: 10,000 RPM is well above the rating of the resin polishing pads in this catalogue, which Diamax publishes at 3,000 to 4,000 RPM. Use an air polisher such as the Diamax Cyclone MVP Pneumatic Air Polisher – Rear Exhaust, 5/8-11 Spindle, 5,500 RPM for pad work.
Who Is This For?
Shops that want an air tool for grinding and cutting rather than a second electric grinder.
