Makita’s 5" SJS angle grinder combines 10.5 amp power with comfort and motor-protection features for longer-lasting industrial performance. The GA5020 is engineered with Makita’s innovative SJS technology is a mechanical clutch system that helps prevent motor and gear damage. 10.5 Amp Power with SJS to Protect Gears: The GA5020 is powered by a 10.5 amp motor that delivers 11,000 RPM, with electric brake for maximum productivity. Labyrinth construction protects the motor with a complex set of channels, prohibiting dust and contamination. In addition, the protective zig-zag varnish seals the motor and bearings from dust and debris by creating a barrier under rotation. The GA5020 is engineered with SJS an innovation from Makita that protects the gears by automatically disengaging the motor should the grinding wheel accidentally catch or bind. The GA5020 weighs only 5.9 lbs and is built with comfort and ergonomic features for extended use, including an ergonomic rubberized rear handle with trigger switch. In addition, the side handle can be easily installed on either side of the tool.
