Grinder leads

[Smallfry]

I use rubber from TLC electrical. It is floppy no matter how cold it is. All mine are at least 4 metres long.

I was using a Hilti SDS drill yesterday, Hilti put fantastic lead on their gear. Feels like silicone and it doesn't have any memory or get tangled.

I bought some silicone lead from Temu to try, it's better than the stuff that came on my Metabo grinder but it's no better than the H07 I normally use.
The Temu stuff has random coloured cores so isn't exactly ce marked either.

You can get help for that now.

Does it have any markings?

Cable specifcations are standardised and enumerated, and it is unlikely Hilti are using something proprietary. If you could find the cable designation, we might find a source for it.

Your mention of silicone reminds me of Antex soldering irons - they offer a silicone cable option, for both heat and flexibility reasons.

Id go min 1.5mm and permplugs. Try screwfix their cables are decent

That's OK if it will fit the grinder

Yes it will fit 100%

I don't buy any cable less than 1.5mm2 not much price difference and anything lighter than that is more like lighting cable IMO.

And how would you know that exactly ?
