Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards

Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards at Tooled-Up.com

Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards are built around the angle grinder. They cover replacement and spare guards for 115mm, 125mm and 230mm machines, cut-off guards, hand shield backing pads, cutting guides with dust extraction outlets, and dedicated GDE dust guards that connect to an extractor.

Tooled-Up.com stocks Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards for both sizes of everyday grinder and larger 230mm machines. Options include the Bosch Angle Grinder Guard 115mm, 125mm and 230mm, the Cut off Guard 115mm, and the GDE 115/125 FC-T, GDE 125 EA-S, GDE 125 EA-T and GDE 230 FC-S/FC-T dust guards.

The key difference between them is purpose. Standard guards shield the operator from sparks and fragments. Cutting guides and GDE dust guards add dust capture at source, which suits masonry and other dusty work.

Key Features of Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards

• Coded locking mechanism: the Cut-Off Guard 115mm locks firmly to compatible Bosch grinders, so its position stays consistent through cutting and grinding.
• Tool-free attachment: guards can be fitted and removed quickly on site, so swapping between cutting and grinding wastes little time.
• EN/EC 60745 build: the cut-off guard is made to this standard, making it a dependable replacement or spare when a guard is damaged or missing.
• Integrated dust extraction: GDE guards and cutting guide outlets connect to a vacuum or extractor, which reduces airborne dust and cleaning time.
• Size-specific fit: 100/115/125mm, 115/125mm and 230mm versions match the disc diameter, and a separate cutting guide and dust port covers pre-2009 115/125mm grinders.
• Hand protection: the Backing Pad Hand Shield for Angle Grinders adds a barrier between the operator's hand and the rotating accessory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right Bosch guard for my angle grinder?

Match the guard to your disc diameter (115mm, 125mm or 230mm) and check it is listed as compatible with your grinder model. For older machines, the pre-2009 cutting guide and dust port is the specific option.

What is the difference between a standard guard and a GDE dust guard?

A standard guard protects against sparks and debris. A GDE dust guard also has an extraction connection, so a vacuum can remove dust as you cut or grind.

Can I use a cut-off guard for grinding?

The Bosch Angle Grinder Cut-Off Guard 115mm is designed for both cut-off and general grinding on compatible Bosch angle grinders. Always check your tool's manual first.

Do I still need PPE with a guard fitted?

Yes. Guards and extraction reduce risk but do not replace eye protection, hearing protection and a suitable respirator, particularly when cutting masonry. Shop Bosch Professional Dust & Protective Guards at Tooled-Up.com.
