Stanley revealed its latest in horizontal grinders with the HGL80 and HLG81 at Railway Interchange 2015 this weekend.

The two horizontal grinders feature a 12 percent weight reduction over the earlier HG80 and its redesigned handle with durable grip coating eliminates the hydraulic oil form the handle, improves tool balance and user comfort. The adjustable front handle improves ergonomics and the new trigger interlock increases durability and ease of use.

The HLG80 long handle grinder is 23.35 inches long by 12 inches wide and weighs 13.6 pounds, while the HGL81 short handle grinder comes in a bit shorter at 19 inches long by 12 inches wide and is the same 13.6 pounds.

Stanley backs all its HGLs with an 18-month factory warranty.
