Makita’s unique zig-zag varnish application pattern provides an innovative solution, offering both heat dissipation and a solid barrier against debris during rotation.

With a larger cooling fan and blades, the Makita GS5000 Corded 5” Straight Grinder pulls more air through the motor, maintaining a lower operating temperature and extending the overall life of the tool.
