Customer Review
A high quality air die grinder from Ingersoll-Rand. The IR308!
Pros: Small and easily used in one hand.Cons: Can get heavy during long periods of use. Trigger lock can aggravate.The Bottom Line:You can't go wrong with Ingersoll-Rand... certainly not with the IR308.Author's Review of April 18, 2009I purchased one of these almost two years ago to replace one that was misplaced. Northern Tool once offered it at $69.99. I've forgotten what I paid for mine, but I believe it was on sale there at the time for a bit less.It's a "Hoss" at 1/3 horsepower and you can tell it by the feel in your hand right away, but don't let the 20 CFM rating @90 PSI loaded scare you. With 25,000 RPM, the IR308 is a professional duty tool that can hold its speed and power well using many smaller compressors of only 8 CFM output with intermittent use. The feel? Well, the weight of the tool is at 3 lbs. It comes well boxed with chuck wrenches, parts and service manual, and Ingersoll-Rand's one year warranty,...

This die grinder has proven to be a workhorse, I expect to be able to use this tool for a long time. One concern, when the tool first arrived I had to unstick the air valve that was not operable. That detail tells me that this particular was never operated nor calibrated for max RPMs as stated in the literature. However, mistakes do happen, and I was able to resolve this issue myself as vs. taking time to run it to the local IR service center or return it to Amazon.com for service. Thank you for an excellent tool.
