Mount Prospect, Ill. – Three new families of grinder attachments from Bosch Power Tools and Accessories are offering angle grinder users impressive new levels of functionality, comfort and safety. Compatible with all Bosch One Touch Guard System 4-1/2” – 7” angle grinders, the new attachments install tool-free, enabling users to conveniently get the most out of their tools in both cutoff and surfacing applications.

Bosch’s SG-Series attachments are designed for concrete surfacing applications where aggressive dust removal is a must. Optimized for use with Bosch’s AirSweep vacuum system, the SG-Series attachments keep concrete dust out of the air and off of the work surface. A removable nose piece enables up-to-wall surfacing, while a replaceable brush ring maximizes the attachment’s lifespan in grueling environments. The SG-Series attachments are ideal for concrete restoration work and other surfacing applications.

For efficient dust removal and collection in masonry cutting applications, Bosch’s DC-Series attachments keep worksites dust-free without sacrificing performance. Featuring a large, stable footplate and fast single-screw depth adjustment, the DC-Series attachments allow for a full depth of cut and outstanding line-of-sight in precision concrete cutting applications. Like the SG-Series attachments, the DC-Series attachments are also optimized for use with Bosch’s AirSweep system.

In addition, both the SG-Series and DC-Series attachments are also designed in accordance with anticipated OSHA standards regarding the reduction of crystalline silica – a material found in concrete and stone products and known to contribute to lung disease – in concrete surfacing and cutting applications.

Bosch’s CG-Series Cutoff guards are ideal for applications where safety is the primary concern, such as exterior concrete cutting, grinding and metal cutoff applications. With a unique wrap-around profile designed to protect users from flying debris, the CG-Series guards also boast outstanding visibility and ease of use.

The new SG, DC and CG-Series attachments are covered by a one year warranty and are now available through authorized Bosch distributors nationwide. To find out more, users may visit www.boschtools.com or call 877-BOSCH-99.
