Makita Variable-Speed Fiber Cement Shear Kit

Shear and grinder
solutions from Makita

Makita USA Inc. offers the JS8000, a fast-cutting variable-speed Fiber Cement Shear Kit. The tool offers precision-machined blades and a powerful motor to cut straight and contour lines quickly and quietly with less dust.

Makita's Fiber Cement Shear has solid steel blades for making faster precision cuts. Its single-piece cutting head is machined to ensure blades are consistently cutting at the optimum angle. The solid steel center and side shear blades cut straight and contour lines with up to 5/16-inch cutting capacity. The 1/2-inch protected spindle withstands heavy torque loads from the 6.5-amp motor.

Makita Variable-Speed Fiber Cement Shear KitMakita has also added three new models to its growing line of angle grinders: the GA7020 (7-inch, 8,500 rpm and AC/DC), GA7021 (7-inch and 6,000 rpm) and GA9020 (9-inch and 6,000 rpm). All three grinders feature 15-amp motors. The GA7020 has a no-load rpm of 8,500 for faster work with more efficiency, while the GA7021 and GA9020 have no-load rpm speeds of 6,000. The rotatable gear housing can be positioned at every 90-degree angle for cutting and grinding applications. On model GA7021, the wheel guard features a "toolless” clamping system for easy adjustment.

Finally, Makita is offering two new electronic angle grinders, models GA7040S (7-inch) and GA9040S (9-inch). Both grinders have 15-amp motors. A torque limiter disengages the motor if the grinding wheel binds, and it protects the lock nut from overtightening in startups and heavy-duty operations.
