About Bosch PWS 18V-70 P4A 18V Cordless Angle Grinder 115mm

The Bosch PWS 18V-70 P4A (101094077) is an 18V cordless angle grinder taking 115mm discs. It's aimed squarely at DIY users who want a compact lightweight tool for cutting metalwork, grinding welds and surface preparation around the home. It runs on the Bosch PowerForAll 18V Alliance system so one battery works across the whole Bosch 18V range.

The motor type isn't specified as brushless or brushed in the product data. No load speed figures aren't listed either. This is a bare tool no battery, charger or case is included, so you'll need a compatible PowerForAll 18V battery. The newer Plus or Slim format batteries use 21700 cells which are lighter and longer lasting than older generations.

Soft start technology gives you smooth controlled power-up rather than a sudden jolt when you pull the trigger. Restart protection stops the grinder activating accidentally when you swap batteries a genuinely useful safety feature. The adjustable guard repositions to suit the task and the side handle mounts left or right to suit any user.

If you already own Bosch PowerForAll 18V tools this grinder slots straight into your existing battery setup. Small and lightweight build keeps fatigue low during extended use. Backed by the Bosch Home and Garden manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects.

The Technology Explained

The PWS 18V-70 P4A runs on the Bosch PowerForAll 18V Alliance platform meaning any PowerForAll 18V battery fits it. Newer Plus or Slim format batteries use 21700 cells which are lighter and deliver longer runtime. The 115mm disc size keeps the tool compact and manageable for home use. Soft start ramps up power gradually on startup rather than hitting full speed instantly which gives better control. Restart protection means the grinder will not activate when a battery is connected if the switch was left on a straightforward but important safety measure.

Using It Safely

Always fit the correct guard use a grinding guard for grinding discs and a cutting guard for cutting discs. Check every disc is rated above the no load speed of this grinder before fitting. Use the side handle at all times and mount it on whichever side suits you. Wear eye protection, gloves and hearing protection. The soft start reduces initial jolt but wait for the disc to stop completely before setting the tool down or changing discs.
