Attachment for Angle Grinder EINHELL Vortex for 115–125 mm Wheels, Distraction/Shield Accessory

The EINHELL Vortex attachment for angle grinders is designed for use with 115–125 mm grinding and cutting wheels. This distraction/shield accessory mounts to compatible angle grinders to deflect sparks and flying debris, helping to control the working environment and reduce direct exposure to expelled particles during metalworking and construction tasks.

Advantages

The Vortex accessory provides a secure mounting interface for common 115–125 mm wheels and creates a stable barrier that channels sparks and dust away from the operator and the workpiece. Its simple geometry and robust build make it easy to fit and remove, while contributing to a cleaner work area and helping to maintain better visibility at the cutting or grinding site.

Suitable for

• Metal cutting and grinding operations with 115–125 mm wheels
• Construction site cutting tasks where debris control is required
• Workshops where containment of sparks and slag improves safety and cleanliness

Key specifications

• Compatibility: designed for angle grinders using 115–125 mm diameter wheels
• Function: distraction/shield to redirect sparks and debris
• Material characteristics: engineered for mechanical durability under typical grinder conditions
• Mounting: attaches to grinder in place of or around standard guard interface to provide directional shielding

How to use

Fit the Vortex attachment to a compatible angle grinder according to the grinder manufacturer’s instructions and ensure the wheel and attachment are correctly aligned and secured before operation. Verify that the accessory does not interfere with wheel rotation and that all original safety guards and fastenings are properly installed. Operate the grinder at recommended wheel speeds and maintain a firm grip while keeping bystanders clear of the work area.

Usage recommendations

Use the attachment in combination with appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. Regularly inspect the accessory and the mounted wheel for wear, damage or loosened fittings and replace components as necessary. Do not rely solely on the attachment for protection; observe safe cutting and grinding practices and follow the angle grinder and wheel manufacturers’ guidelines.
