December 2003 – DeWALT has introduced a versatile 4-1/2-inch cordless cut-off and grinding tool powered by the company’s 18-volt battery system.

            The new high-powered DC410KA cut-off tool produces 350 maximum-watts-out and is designed for maintenance crews, mechanical contractors, concrete formers, iron workers, glaziers, commercial floor installers, boat mechanics, highway workers and other professionals who want cordless versatility for punch-list cutting and grinding work.

            The DC410KA is ideal for typical cut-off and grinding applications, including:

• Metal cutting – 1/4” to 3/4” rebar, 1/2” threaded rod, and 1/2” to 3/4” high-stress bolts
• Transportation and highway work - grinding and cleaning rails, cutting bolts
• Mechanical contractors – cutting drains in metal roofing – building rehab
• Exterior trim installation – cutting excess PVC/fiberglass reinforced trim already in place
• Commercial floor installation - cutting floor lines with diamond cutting wheel
• MRO and manufacturing – cutting bolts to quickly change or move production line 
• Glaziers – cutting 1/4” bolts on window plates
• Any cut-off or grinding punch-list job that previously required a cord or a generator

            For durability, the tool’s metal gear case dissipates heat away from the bearings, gears and motor. Sealed ball bearings in the motor add longevity.

            For convenience, the DC410KA has a universal flange, keyless guard adjustment, and spindle lock so users can change wheels quickly and easily. The trigger switch and lock-off button allow for easier gripping, while a three-position side handle provides better control during surface and edge cutting.

            The DC410KA cordless cut-off tool comes with two 18V XR+™ PACK batteries, one-hour battery charger, three-position side handle, cutting guard, grinding guard, DW8062 cutting wheel, DW4515 grinding wheel, wrench, backing flange, and a heavy-duty kit box.
