Frequently asked questions
Common questions about FEIN from 3G Electric.
What is the difference between the FEIN CCG 18-125 BL SELECT and the CCG 18-125 BLPD SELECT cordless angle grinders?
Both models use an 18V DC brushless motor and a 125 mm wheel diameter. The CCG 18-125 BL SELECT has a flathead barrel grip and electronic speed selection. The CCG 18-125 BLPD SELECT also has a flathead barrel grip but adds soft start. The CCG 18-125 BLPD SET variant includes one 8.0 Ah flathead battery and a brake. Standard-head versions, such as the CCG 18-125 BL AS SELECT and CCG18-125 BLPD AS- SELECT, are also available with jam monitoring or restart protection respectively. Selection depends on required control features and battery inclusion.
What battery platform do FEIN cordless oscillating tools like the AMM 700 1.7Q AS use?
The FEIN AMM 700 1.7Q AS N09 Set 18V and AMM 500 AS 4Ah FUS operate on the CORE18V battery platform. The AMM 700 1.7Q AS set includes one 2.0 Ah and one 4.0 Ah battery. The AMM 500 AS is supplied with a 4.0 Ah CORE18V battery. Both tools have a 1.7-degree oscillation angle and a brushless motor. The AMM 500 AS also features Accessory Free Tool Change. CORE18V batteries are shared across compatible FEIN 18V tools, which can reduce the number of battery types needed in a workshop.
What materials can the FEIN Starlock bi-metal blade cut?
The FEIN Starlock mounted blade listed under SKU 402JZ1 is a bi-metal blade intended for precision cutting of aluminum. It has a 1-3/4 inch blade width and 2-1/8 inch overall length, making it suitable for flush cuts and detail work in metal fabrication. Bi-metal construction allows the blade to cut metal without the brittleness of some other blade materials. It mounts on Starlock oscillating tools. For other materials, FEIN offers additional Starlock blade types; the correct blade should be selected based on the workpiece material and cut geometry.
Which FEIN cordless angle grinder models include a brake?
The FEIN CCG 18-125 BLPD SET includes a brake for enhanced control. It is supplied with one 8.0 Ah flathead battery and has a 5-inch wheel diameter and an 18V DC brushless motor. Other models in the CCG 18-125 range, such as the CCG 18-125 BL SELECT, CCG 18-125 BLPD SELECT, CCG 18-125 BL AS SELECT, and CCG18-125 BLPD AS- SELECT, do not list a brake in their supplied specifications. Buyers should confirm the exact model number and included accessories when ordering, as features vary across the range.
What is Accessory Free Tool Change on FEIN oscillating tools?
Accessory Free Tool Change is a feature on the FEIN AMM 500 AS 4Ah FUS Nylonbag oscillating tool that allows the blade or accessory to be swapped without a separate tool. This reduces downtime during cutting, sanding, or scraping tasks. The tool operates on an 18V DC CORE18V battery system with a 4.0 Ah capacity and has a 1.7-degree oscillation angle. It is supplied in a nylon bag. The AMM 700 1.7Q AS N09 Set 18V does not list this feature; it includes two batteries and a brushless motor.
