Powerful and reliable corded angle grinder for use with large abrasive discs with a diameter of 230 mm. Due to the impressive rated motor power (2300 W) and the size of the equipment, it is suitable for cutting thick-walled metal structures and large steel profiles. Allows you to quickly and with minimal effort cut concrete and reinforced concrete, brick, ceramics and porcelain stoneware. Perfectly will be suitable for performance of dismantling works of any complexity. When used with appropriate wire brushes, it can effectively sand and clean large surfaces. It is positioned as a product of the upper price category, focused on professional use. A powerful commutator motor is reliably protected from abrasive particles by a multi-layer coating with a special heat-resistant protective compou...nd. The motor and gearbox shaft of the Hitachi G23ST angle grinder is held by high-quality support bearings with labyrinth dust protection. Durable bevel gears are made of high strength hardened alloy steel. The speed of rotation of the spindle shaft and the driven gear reaches 6600 rpm, so the gearbox housing is made of thick-walled cast aluminium, which dissipates the generated heat well. It is possible to install the side support handle in any of three positions for the convenience of the operator.

Relatively quiet operation (by the standards of an angle grinder of this power class).

Large angle grinder with good dust protection

For large network grinders, which are used for cutting thick rolled metal or building blocks using large discs with a diameter of 230 mm, there are increased requirements for reliability. In this regard, Hitachi G23ST has no complaints. This angle grinder is distinguished by a well-thought-out design that provides “survivability” and a long tool life. Judge for yourself: the armature and stator windings are well “armored” with a varnish coating, the electric motor is closed on both sides with powerful labyrinth seals that do not allow dust to pass through, and the “halves” of the housing are connected in such a way that dirt and abrasive particles have practically no chance of getting inside . In general, the build quality of this tool can be judged by the fact that it works noticeably quieter than other angle grinders of the same power class. The noise during operation is relatively small (98 dB - 3 - 5 dB less than that of analogues), and the sound is not “rattling” and “clattering”, but rather “soft” and “smooth”. This means that all parts of the motor and gearbox are well adjusted to each other, without backlash and unnecessary gaps.

Tool for long non-stop work

The electric motor, which has a power of 2000 W and "spins" up to 6600 rpm, runs smoothly and easily withstands heavy loads (for example, sawing metal with a thickness of 8 - 10 mm). The manufacturer claims that the Hitachi G23ST grinder motor is 20% better at handling overloads compared to the previous generation model, the Hitachi G23SS. This was achieved by optimizing the cooling process - and therefore this angle grinder does not overheat during prolonged operation, and it can be “chased in the tail and mane” for a long time without smoking breaks. Good ergonomics, moderate (by the standards of this class of tools) weight of 5.1 kg, and a low level of vibration also contribute to long-term work.

Thus, we can say that Hitachi G23ST is a good "workhorse" of a professional class, which does not have any extra "bells and whistles". The tool comes with clamp nuts with a wrench to fix the disc and a protective cover with an L-shaped hexagon for its installation and adjustment.
