Makita GA055G 40v Max XGT Cordless Brushless Flat Head Slide Switch Angle Grinder 125mm
The Makita GA055G is a 125mm cordless angle grinder powered by the 40V Max XGT battery system, designed for professional tradespeople requiring access in confined spaces. This flat head model features a compact profile that excels where traditional gear head designs are too bulky, making it ideal for metal fabrication work in awkward positions, cutting operations near walls or corners, and general grinding tasks in restricted areas.
Built around a brushless motor with soft start capability, this angle grinder delivers smooth operation whilst the slide switch with lock-on function provides comfortable control during extended cutting or grinding sessions. The electric brake system stops the disc quickly after releasing the switch, maximising both productivity and site safety.
Safety features are comprehensive on this professional-grade tool. The anti-restart protection prevents unexpected startup if the switch is left engaged when the battery is reconnected, whilst Active Feedback sensing Technology (AFT) monitors rotation speed and automatically shuts down the motor if a sudden drop is detected, helping to protect against dangerous kickback incidents. Makita's XPT (eXtreme Protection Technology) shields internal components from dust and moisture ingress, extending the tool's working life in harsh job site conditions. The battery protection system safeguards the XGT cells by shutting off power before complete depletion occurs.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
