The Elite: Five New 2,000 Watt Angle Grinders

Steinheim, July 2025

FLEX presents five new high-performance angle grinders in the 2,000 watt segment. These machines are powerful, efficient, and meticulously designed. Available with a paddle switch, optimized for stainless steel applications, or featuring an effective 150 mm cutting disc, these new models represent the forefront of FLEX's metal expertise, setting new standards in the premium metalworking segment. The grinders impress with maximum performance, practical features, and an optimized machine design.

Five Powerful Models - Tailored to Professional Requirements

• LBE 20-11 125-EC - The versatile standard model with variable speed.
• LB 20-11 125-EC - Variant with fixed speed, ideal for clear applications.
• LBE 20-8 125-EC INOX - Specially optimized for stainless steel applications.
• LBP 20-11 125-EC - With paddle switch and safety belt hook, predestined for industrial applications, such as on shipyards or scaffolding.
• LBE 20-10 150-EC - Particularly effective due to maximum cutting depth with 150 mm discs.

Specific Areas of Application and Strengths of the Machines

The new 2,000 watt angle grinders from FLEX are specifically designed for the demands of professionals in challenging work environments. Whether in workshops, on construction sites, or in industry, their robust design, well-thought-out ergonomics, and powerful motorization make them the ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

• Locksmiths and metal construction companies benefit from the high power density and the ability to work precisely and efficiently even under continuous stress, such as when cutting profiles to size or removing weld seams.
• Industrial companies and shipyards can rely on the special paddle switch version with safety belt hooks, which offers additional safety when working on scaffolding or in areas that are difficult to access.
• Structural and civil engineering requires robust machines with a high cutting depth. The 150 mm model with a powerful EC motor delivers excellent results, for example, when cutting concrete or natural stone slabs.
• Gardening, landscaping, and stone working benefit from reliable dust repellence thanks to the removable metal guard and the particularly handy design, perfect for precise stone cutting work or outdoor renovation projects.

Robust. Low Maintenance. Geared to the Future.

The new models are equipped with a brushless 2,000 watt EC motor, which is durable, low-maintenance, and significantly more efficient than conventional brush motors, with an efficiency of 74 percent. This makes them ideal for long-term use in metalworking shops and industry. They also feature low maintenance requirements (no carbon brush replacement), a slimmer design, and particularly ergonomic handling.

The slide switch, positioned at the top, ensures optimal operability for both right-handed and left-handed users. This is also a significant advantage for cutting work where the angle grinder must be guided in different positions, for example, when cutting tiles or stone.

Another clever optimization is the speed adjustment, now conveniently controlled using robust buttons instead of a dust-sensitive selection wheel. This also contributes to the ergonomic advantage: "The new machine design allowed us to incorporate soft inserts for a better grip and optimized ergonomics," explains Product Manager Sigmar Wagenknecht.

Innovative Technology for Professional Requirements

The new FLEX angle grinders combine intelligent features with practical benefits, always keeping the real requirements of users in trade, construction, and industry in mind.

• Variable speed adjustment at the touch of a button (depending on model): Six precisely harmonized speeds enable material-specific work, such as slow speeds for INOX applications or controlled cuts with sensitive materials in gardening and landscaping.
• Paddle switch with safety belt hook (LBP 20-11 125-EC): Specially developed for industry, it provides protection when working at height, for example, on shipyards or assembly platforms.
• Anti-vibration side handle: Noticeably reduces vibrations, ideal for long, fatigue-free work when grinding or cutting large metal surfaces.
• Small gripping circumference (205 mm): Ergonomically optimized for precise guidance, for example, for pinpoint deburring in metalworking operations.
• Removable metal protective grille: Increases dust protection and extends the service life of the machine, a real advantage in the construction and renovation sector.
• Spindle stop for quick tool change: Saves time on the construction site or in the workshop, eliminating cumbersome changing of cutting discs.
• Comprehensive safety and comfort functions: Includes soft start, restart protection, overload protection, temperature monitoring, anti-kickback, constant electronics, and brake. These are particularly relevant for continuous daily use in industry or construction.
• Cutting guard clip: Allows for quick, tool-free adjustment of the cutting guard, providing greater flexibility in changing work situations.
• Models with 125 mm and 150 mm disc diameter: Can be selected depending on the application, from delicate stainless steel inserts to deep cuts through natural stone.

These practical features make the new FLEX angle grinders an indispensable tool for every professional who expects performance, safety, and reliability at the highest level.

With the new 2,000 watt angle grinders, FLEX once again demonstrates its consistent focus on professional users, offering innovative technology, proven solutions, and a clear focus on metalworking.
