Sadly the guard doesn't fit everywhere when you are doing maintenace in the field for example. I have broken ("exloded") a huge amount of blades but never gotten injured. Positioning in relation to the blade is also beneficial.

[@complexity5545]

And the cutting angles are wrong. If they want debris to shoot toward the styrofoam cups, they need to stab the pipe on the right side of the disc and from the other side of the table since the spin is counter-clockwise. (or flip the grinder over like you normally use an angle grinder). They did not think about centrifugal force. The guy ducking under the table is actually in the unsafe zone. This kind of shows how safe angle grinders are if the guard, stock, and operator are in the correct position. It also shows that most people and youtubers do not know about physics. Angle grinders are basically mini bombs. Good video though and slow-motion camera.

[@ChrisPowellFSD]

Thanks for posting this. I was the safety rep for the metal smith and machine shop on my ship in the Navy. I didn’t want to scare the new people, but always tried to instill a healthy level of respect into the new guys when it came to tools like the grinder. In all of the years I’ve been doing this stuff, I’ve never actually seen one explode. Any injuries I had seen in person were from a result of kick back or people touching the blade because the guard was removed. It would be interesting to see a test where a cutting disc was plunged into a non ferrous metal to see it it would gum up and explode like the wheels on a bench grinder.

[@spoofer20]

They explode much easier when you go past the expiry date, the expiry date is printed on the disc. Especially cutting disks, I tried to use some that were 2 years past expiration date and most of them blew up as soon as you touched something. I was wearing full safety gear but it was still scary seeing the discs go shooting out.

[@olavinto]

I have broken many, many blades and never gotten injured. Most with the guard on and many without (it prevents cutting in some tighter situations). Probably done thousands of cuts over the years and probably broken like a 100 blades. 🤷

[@schuylermorris5342]

I have broken Tons of em before and never got hurt by one breaking, but on the other hand, I have cut nerves clean in half in a few fingers with Cutoff discs but yesterday I guess my straw got pulled cause I was just making a little notch into a ln intake manifold and KAABOOOOOOOOOOOOM and it felt like someone had smacked me in the face and I knew immediately what had happened disc filleted off a nice chunk off the side of my face. Perfect shape of the half of the disc. Got lucky, an inch to the right, stuck in my face, 3 inches lower, taken out my jugular

[@AtticusDraco]

Interestingly, I now feel safer with my grinder than I did prior to this vid

[@drewt3210]

Totally! I've had several catches over the years with 4.5" & 7" grinders. Happens fast and surprises me every time, but never had it cause injury. I only have a guard on my 7", none of my 4.5" grinders have guards. They were ALWAYS in the way. Got tired of constantly adjusting and turning, interrupting work flow...eventually chucked them. Live and let live, do you feel comfortable with.

[@Thom4123]

In automotive we use cutting pneumatic cutting disc when one goes you have a whole new respect for the tools you use. Awesome video to keep us safe. Take Care

Figments Made that’s what I was thinking as well 🤣🤣

[@AndyBirkeyMaker]

Yep, I did.

[@unionse7en]

the beauty of the guard is that you can clamp a piece of angle iron to the work bench , this allows hanging the grinder on the vertical angle edge while the blade is still spinning. You can quickly put the grinder down without waiting for it to spin down. Use multiple cheap grinders vs one good one and keep different discs on each. Bonus...zip tie a sharpie cap upside down to the angle...allows quick one-handed use of your sharpie without it drying out.

[@TheDirle]

"Why you ask?" "Because of reasons."

[@TheThrustProject]

Just three days ago I worked with an angle grinder, and one spark shot underneath my safety glasses into my eye. The doctor picked up the grain with a Q tip, and I don't have any dangerous eye injury. It's the first time something came into my eye working with power tools and I'm glad, it just was a minor incident. Wear your safety glasses, kids!

[@lapislignum]

I caught a rebound "something" in the eye the other day, my usual technique is to wear a face shield and safety glasses (which is annoying as I wear a respirator and earmuffs too most of the time) but I think I was just wearing glasses this time, finally bought some goggles that seal against your face, they are great!

[@agostonzg]

Glasses are not enough! You should wear safety helmet with protective face shield.

[@olavinto]

I've had a tiny (only looked like a dot with bare eye) metal shaving drilled out of my eye. That was fun. 👀

[@robcrawford9657]

30 years of use and never a problem until last year a disc exploded when i had no gloves on and made a mess of my hand severing tendons etc and needed surgery. Take these little guys serious!

[@Metal_seer]

I watched a grinder "safety" video in which the man said you didn't need gloves because his technique was to always keep both hands on the grinder, so they could never touch the blade. He obviously has not watched accident videos. Most are because the grinder breaks lose from the hand control and goes flying into a hand, arm, leg, face, or (most dangerous of all) NECK. It is essential to wear gloves, safety glasses, and faceshield. A leather or kevkar apron is also advisable.

[@kevinklingner3098]

Here in Australia on building site etc a number of people have been killed by thin cut of wheels exploding without the shield on. Partly it is the speed these discs are designed for and being used at on the bigger angle grinders ie; the 8-9 inch grinders. Always without the safety guard on. Other severe injuries have occurred also.

[@olavinto]

I'm very very hesitant to use large ones without a guard because they are not very easily controlled. Small grinders can be very well used with one hand and you can almost always keep distance and position yourself away from the line of the blade, and I've had coutless of small blades break (some "exploding" too) but never had any injuries because of it. In the field there are situations where the guard prevents the machine from fittin and your only option is to cut without it.

[@pauldisse1676]

I like your random ramblings thank you

[@timberdish]

Valid advice there and some interesting footage! Can't be too careful with the angle grinder. For any not in the know, it's worth saying that there is a use-by date on the wheels (usually printed/stamped on the metal collar in the middle of the disc). Once past, it's a good idea to just snap the disc and put it in the bin. hth.

[@daniilcharms]

[@BurtonsAttic]

Cool test, don't die testing. 7:30 is similar to what happened to me about 25 years ago. I was cutting the floor pan out of a car to replace it using a die grinder at tight points. The cut wasn't finishing yet but the metal moved from the stress relief. The die grinder wheel caught the pinch and came to a sudden stop. A tiny piece of the wheel ricocheted off of something and grazed my cheek on it's way to my left eye under the safety glasses. Rushed to the eye doctor who removed it using a giant magnifier and a needle. It hurt for about a week but I fully recovered. Even when you doing the right thing sometimes you still get hurt.

But really they are not safe. Trust me. Im on number 150-160 fibre splinters that ive pulled from the inside of my eyelids. And most are under the skin.

Glad you are safe. Love your blog!

[@watchjaredwork1487]

99% of the time it’s user error that causes a disk to explode or fly off. Just like your first break, you are putting a “moment load” on that disk which it was never meant to handle. Use good quality discs with no defects and use them how they were intended to be used and 99.9% of the time you’ll be just fine. Also, I run an ASME pressure vessel fab shop, probably at least 25 grinders laying around and not one of them has a guard on them.

[@MrStrongBro]

Well, I had an accident at work today. Apparently all of our grinders don’t have guards already attached to them, even tho our company standards clearly say never use one without a guard… Anyway, it exploded in my hand today and banged my finger up pretty bad and bounced off my face shield. Thankfully I was wearing gloves and was wearing the shield, I should’ve found the guard for it. 😅

[@PapiSmerf]

Yeah.... I've used an angle grinder a lot... Exploding discs don't scare me, wear a pair of safety glasses and you're okay, you'll at worst get a few scratches if it flies in the wrong direction and the guard is more likely to cause you to bust a disc because it obscures your view of the work and how you're hitting it. *"You're not using it properly if it blocks your view"* the trolls will say. Sir troll, I retort, you have never used an angle grinder on anything but a horizontal surface sitting on a table. Get over it. Super thick wire wheels scare me. Wire cups terrify me. I have scars from knotted wire cups that still hurt. I've had days where I had to spend 15 minutes in front of a mirror sorting through my beard to find wires from wheels that were embedded in my skin like little spears. I've had knotted cups grab 5lb pieces of steel and snatch them out from under a set of TIGHT clamps and chuck it at co-workers across the shop. Disc guards do nothing to prevent any of that. They just make it happen more often. Edit: Oh, and loose T-shirts. Loose T-shirts have almost gotten me gutted. More than once I'm ashamed to say.

[@drewt3210]

Glad you took this stance! I've had several catches. Surprising always, but never cause injury, even with bigger 7 inch grinder. Face shield yes, grinder guards no...not in the real world on your back, laying sideways, etc. They're always in the way. Video clearly shows how even flimsy styrofoam cups aren't damaged. Get over the worry wart "could be/almost/what if" and get to work already ;-)

[@sombruhcolomar7254]

first time i used one of these things i was terrified cuz i have seen some accidents.. after using it a few times and got more comfortable i am still careful but not that scared. i just wonder how much inaccurate use you need to use before it breaks.. or injures you..

[@noahv.3201]

Yes, plz do more of theese videos

[@vincent7520]

The cups are not marked or destroyed simply because they give way to the broken disc and fly with it. If it had been a very stable and heavy object or a person (or animal) the broken pieces would simply have cut its way through the object or body. The dis is not very large so the torque is quite low but the speed of the disc would have had enough force to permanently Injure someone.

[@narancs5]

The test showed clearly that the danger doesnt arise when yor disc breaks on something. It is far more dangerous when it disintegrates on its own.

[@zaynrobert1110]

The way that guard stood makes me think the importance of proper handling of this equipment , safety is a choice of life or death

I think a lot of the really serious injuries are due to kickback, where the guard plays a big part, but clearly catching shrapnel in the eye or arms could be catastrophic too. Has anyone ever had a flapdisk explode?

[@Gopnik57]

Graphic so read on your own caution Yes, it happend to me and around me, my boss warned us when we started out that no matter what to never remove the guard cover so we just follow this simple rule, 3 weeks later while working with the angle grinder the disc just exploded on me, simple work done it hundred times that day but that one just didnt want to anymore it skimmed my left pinky a bit thanks to my gloves it didnt do much and thanks to the safety goggles my eyes where protected aswell since some little shrapnel just flew everywhere but i can tell you without that guard id have some serious problems. The second time didnt happen to our crew but to another working on the same jobsite, they never used a guard and they didnt want one either, since we all went for lunch break together i asked them to put it back on but since i was 21 at that point and most of them where 30-40-50 ish they just kindly told me to F off... and i kindly let them be, 2 days later 30minutes before shift ends we hear an soul shattering scream followed by call an ambulance, they where cutting a bit of stone and the disc (not a flapdisc but a diamond cutting disc) lodged it self in to a cravis and shattered the disc in multiple pieces, ripping his left index and middle off and leaving his ring finger dangling of his hand just attached by a piece of skin, besides that i heard he a had a piece stuck in his thigh and foot and that he was lucky that his head was not in the flight path.... so yeahh no matter what disc never ever remove the guard cover! if you can not reach there to cut use a different tool!

That is a good idea, since many grinder accidents are from losing control of the tool. The tool could be held by very weak bindings which would break when pressure was applied to the blade with a metal rod. Call it "Grinder Jacass Ii". Use some more realistic manikins, preferrably made out of gelatin. I saw one real video of a guy sitting on the floor using a grinder between his legs. It got loose and entangled itself in his pants in the crotch area. He got up and walked away from the camera. Either henwas incredibly lucky, or his manly parts and thigh got badly abused. 😊😊😊
