§ FAQ

What disc size does the DCG402B accept?

The DCG402B accepts standard 4.5-in. (114mm) grinding and cutting wheels, which are the most widely available cordless angle grinder wheel size.

Does the DCG402B have anti-kickback protection?

Yes. The DCG402B includes DEWALT's ANTI-ROTATION System, which detects pinch, stall, or bind-up events and stops the wheel to reduce reactionary torque.

What is the Lanyard Ready™ feature on the DCG402B?

The DCG402B includes a built-in Lanyard Ready™ Attachment Point for tethering the tool when working at height. This prevents the grinder from falling if dropped. The lanyard is sold separately.

How does the DCG402B differ from the DCG400B?

The DCG402B uses a 4.5-in. disc compared to the DCG400B's 4-in. disc, and includes a Lanyard Ready™ Attachment Point and side handle. The DCG400B is slightly smaller and lighter at 4.34 lbs vs. 4.78 lbs.

Is the DCG402B battery compatible with other DEWALT tools?

Yes. The DCG402B uses any DEWALT 20V MAX* battery. The battery system is compatible with hundreds of DEWALT 20V MAX* tools.

Does the DCG402B come with a grinding wheel?

Yes. Unlike the DCG400B, the DCG402B ships with a Type 27 grinding wheel in addition to the guard, wrench, and side handle.
