Frequently asked questions about the Electric tools category
Electric tools — what are they and what are they used for?
Electric tools are handheld or stationary tools powered by electricity for drilling, cutting, grinding, sawing and fastening. The category includes drills, rotary hammers, angle grinders, saws and compressors suitable for home repairs, construction and garden tasks.
Which electric tools are needed for home use?
For home use choose versatile tools: a drill/driver for fastenings, a 125 mm angle grinder for cutting and cleaning, a jigsaw for shaped cuts and a cordless vacuum for cleanup. Opt for 500–1400 W mains tools or 18–20 V cordless models for portability.
What types of electric tools are available?
The range includes drills and cordless drills, rotary hammers, angle grinders, jigsaws, circular saws, routers, sanders, compressors, welding machines and pressure washers. Each category offers models for DIY and professional use.
How do cordless drills differ from corded drills?
Cordless drills offer mobility and run on 12–18 V batteries with limited run time. Corded drills are typically more powerful (commonly 500–1400 W) and suited for prolonged work without recharging.
What tools are suitable for garden and allotment?
For the garden choose cordless trimmers and blowers, pressure washers for cleaning patios and paths, plus cordless saws and sanders for timber work. Prefer models with dust and moisture protection.
How to choose an angle grinder by disc size and power?
For household tasks use 115–125 mm discs and 700–1400 W power; for cutting metal or stone prefer 125 mm and higher power. Check no-load speed (typically 9000–12000 rpm), safety guard and spindle lock.
What accessories are needed for electric tools?
Key accessories include drill bits for wood and metal, cutting and grinding discs for angle grinders, jigsaw blades, replacement carbon brushes and batteries/chargers for cordless tools. Safety gear like goggles, ear protection and a respirator are also recommended.
Which compressor is suitable for household jobs?
For household tasks choose oil-lubricated or oil-free compressors with 5–24 L tanks and 55–240 L/min airflow at up to 8 bar. A 24 L, 8 bar unit is typically sufficient for tyre inflation and nailer tools.
How do circular saws differ by purpose?
Handheld circular saws are for cross and rip cuts in timber, table saws for precise cuts, and tile/stone cutters for ceramics. For clean cuts select a saw with depth adjustment and a guide rail.
Which rotary hammer is suitable for drilling concrete?
For concrete choose a rotary hammer with around 800 W power and an SDS-plus chuck for 4–28 mm bits. For frequent heavy work prefer models with 2–5 J impact energy and overload protection.
What to consider when choosing a battery and charger?
Check voltage (commonly 12/18/20 V), capacity in Ah for runtime and compatibility with the brand's battery system. Prefer chargers with fast-charge capability and a battery status indicator.
