Other features include a built-in adjustable work lamp, a sturdy cast iron base to reduce vibration during operation, adjustable aluminum tool rests with a groove for easy drill bit sharpening, a removable quench water tray, and a detractable wheel dresser for cleaning and reshaping the grinding wheel between uses. Review: The removable side guard panels are at least twice the thickness and very sturdy. The tool rests could be a bit stronger - I've only had it one day, but compared to the other brand I returned here's what I see. More powerful motor with a relatively faster start up. I put a wire brush on one side and it really digs in. The other brand would not even start up due to some of the brush wires rubbing against the guard. The removable side guard panels are at least twice the thickness and very sturdy. The tool rests could be a bit stronger, but the surfaces are machined and should be adequate. Haven't tried the light yet, but one person said he taped some stiff wire to the goose neck to prevent it from moving during operation. It will probably be needed. The eye guards are strong and easily positioned to accommodate various shaped pieces. All in all a good find. Review: Decent grinder, some minor issues - Decent quality. The gooseneck lamp is not stiff enough to resist the vibration of the grinder at full speed and flops around. I also wish they didn't put that deep groove in the left rest. It is supposed to help with drill sharpening but it makes the rest useless when you just want to slide a tool left and right. These are things I can work around, but it would be better if I didn't have to tweak it. The variable speed is a nice feature and the grinder is very heavy. This design seems to be common across several brands. I would imagine they all come from the same factory. ## Features - Sharpen shape or grind wide variety of materials with the variable speed range of 2000 to 3400 RPM - Cast Iron base for added stability and reduced vibration during operation with mounting holes for bench or stand - Adjustable die cast aluminum tool rests with groove for easy drill bit sharpening - Adjustable 40 watt lamp for better illumination of work area bulb not included - Includes 36 grit coarse wheel 60 grit medium wheel dresser removable quench water tray ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | PORTER-CABLE | | Item Weight | 39.9 Pounds | | Material | Aluminum | | Power Source | electric-powered | | Style | Adjustable | | Wattage | 40 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PORTER-CABLE - **Material:** Aluminum - **Style:** Adjustable - **Power Source:** electric-powered - **Item Weight:** 39.9 Pounds ## Images ![Porter-Cable PCB575BG 8" Variable Speed Grinder with Work Lamp - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bUev6ubaL.jpg) ![Porter-Cable PCB575BG 8" Variable Speed Grinder with Work Lamp - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71SLZjRSCpL.jpg) ![Porter-Cable PCB575BG 8" Variable Speed Grinder with Work Lamp - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rO7-4G+kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The removable side guard panels are at least twice the thickness and very sturdy.

The stone, in three pieces, fell off its axel and I was able to see that the axel was rust covered...Now begins the product return process and it's fair to say I'm not happy with Porter Cable right now...Will let you know the resolution of the problem... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/23732111-porter-cable-pcb575bg-8-variable-speed-grinder-with-work-lamp](https://www.desertcart.at/products/23732111-porter-cable-pcb575bg-8-variable-speed-grinder-with-work-lamp) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
