Built for controlled deburring, edge blending, and small-area material removal, the Dotco 12L1080-36M6OH Inline Die Grinder gives technicians a straight, on-axis tool format for working with compatible rotary burrs, mounted points, and abrasive accessories. Part of the 12-10 Series, this air-powered grinder combines a 0.3 HP motor with 30,000 RPM free speed, meaning no-load rotational speed, for fast cutting action on smaller accessories. The 6 mm collet, the accessory-holding chuck, supports metric-shank tooling, while the rear exhaust helps route spent air away from the work area and the operators hands.The inline body style is well suited for bench work, fixture work, and hand finishing where the accessory needs to stay aligned with the tool body. Use this Dotco grinder for spot grinding, part cleanup, light weld blending, casting cleanup, and finishing operations where a full-size angle grinder would be too large or too aggressive.Type: Inline Die Grinder | Brand: Dotco | Model: 12L1080-36M6OH | Series: 12-10 Series | Power: 0.3 HP | Free Speed: 30,000 RPM | Collet Size: 6 mm | Exhaust: Rear Exhaust | Power Source: PneumaticFeatures:Inline die grinder configuration supports straight, controlled contact with the workpiece during deburring and finishing operations.0.3 HP pneumatic motor provides practical power for small burrs, mounted points, and light material removal tasks.30,000 RPM free speed helps keep compatible small-diameter accessories cutting efficiently.6 mm collet accepts matching metric-shank carbide burrs, mounted stones, and other properly rated rotary accessories.Rear exhaust helps direct air away from the grinding point, reducing air blast across the work surface.Useful for production benches, tool rooms, repair departments, and fabrication stations where controlled handheld grinding is required.Made in USA: Applications:Metal fabrication and welding shops cleaning edges, blending small welds, and removing minor burrs after cutting or machining.Aerospace and composite work controlled finishing on brackets, panels, and trimmed components when paired with compatible accessories.Tool, die, and mold maintenance spot grinding, relief work, and localized cleanup in cavities or fixture details.Industrial MRO and plant maintenance removing burrs, sharp edges, and surface imperfections during repair work.Automotive and advanced garage use bracket cleanup, small casting work, and detail grinding where a 6 mm die grinder is appropriate.FAQs:Q: What accessories fit the Dotco 12L1080-36M6OH?A: This model uses a 6 mm collet, so it should be paired with compatible 6 mm shank rotary accessories. Always confirm the accessory shank size and maximum RPM rating before installation.Q: What does rear exhaust mean on an inline die grinder?A: Rear exhaust means the tool vents air toward the back of the grinder instead of directly at the work surface. This can help keep chips and grinding dust from being blown across the contact point.Q: Can this grinder be used with carbide burrs?A: Yes, when the carbide burr has a compatible 6 mm shank and is rated for at least 30,000 RPM. The accessory speed rating must meet or exceed the grinders free speed.Q: Is this the right tool for cutting wheels?A: No. This is an inline die grinder for compatible collet-mounted rotary accessories. Do not mount saw blades, cut-off wheels, or non-approved accessories unless specifically allowed by the manufacturer.Q: What compressor size is required?A: The provided source information does not list air consumption or recommended hose size. Confirm the full manufacturer catalog specifications before sizing the compressor, hose, and FRL setup. .spec-accordion{width:100%;max-width:1200px;margin:1em
