Metabo 125mm angle grinder buying guide

Updated: October 2026

You already want a Metabo and a 125 mm disc. On amazon.co.uk that size still covers a 240 V listing, a 230 V listing, two 110 V bodies and two bare 18 V tools. This Metabo 125mm angle grinder buying guide is the order of checks before you add one ASIN: order number, then volts and plug, then whether the price includes a battery, then the nut, then the speed line. The [Metabo angle grinder 125 comparison](/hub/tools/metabo-angle-grinder-125) holds the eight rows. Peter F. did not run a lab cut.

Start with the order number

WEV 11-125 Quick is one name and two tools. Order 603625000 is the 220–240 V grinder on Metabo UK, listed here as 240 V, 1,100 W and £94.00. Order 603625390 is the 110 V twin at the same £94.00. Searching the name and skipping the code can put a site grinder on a house socket. Metabo UK prints 2,800–10,500 rpm for 603625000. The amazon file for that 240 V ASIN does not print the range. The 110 V bullets do. The other codes are 603605000, 603624390, 600468000, 603611510, 602371850 and 602374850. The 240 V title also prints 4.5 inches beside 125 mm.

Plug, bare tool, then nut

A UK house wants 220–240 V and a BS 1363 plug. Two United Kingdom reviews on the 240 V WEV say a two-pin plug and an adaptor. The W 750-125 says 240 V and does not describe the plug, so £42.86 still needs a look at the pins. Do not file a two-pin plug down. A 110 V tool belongs on a site supply. That split is the 110 V or 230 V page. The W 18 7-125 at £68.99 and the brushless body at £74.95 exclude the battery. Only the W 18 7-125 bullets name CAS. The cordless or corded page covers the pack. M-Quick is named on the 240 V WEV bullet, the WP included list and the WEV 15-125 box list. The W 750-125, both cordless bodies and the 850 set list a two-hole nut.

Speed line and what the stars do not prove

Read one rpm figure or a range, then match the disc. Fixed lines here are 11,500 rpm on the W 750-125, 11,000 rpm on the WP, 8,500 rpm on the W 18 7-125 and 10,000 rpm on the brushless body. The 110 V WEV prints 2,800–10,500 per minute. The 240 V WEV and the WEV 15-125 say adjustable and leave the range off amazon. Metabo’s page for 600468000 prints 2,800–11,000 rpm. A disc must be marked at least as fast as the tool’s no-load speed. Stars do not rank British cutting. A 5.0 from one rating is not a stronger UK sample than 4.5 from 222. Who should leave each price is the best Metabo 125 mm angle grinder page.

What to leave for the other pages

The WEV 850-125 set at £174.29 names a 125 x 22 mm diamond disc, a case and a two-hole nut, and the amazon file does not print volts. You cannot tick 230 V because a set looks like a house tool. Confirm the plate, or leave the ASIN. 750 W is the wrong class when you wanted the 1,100 W or 1,550 W rows. The W 750-125 is the entry price after you have seen the plug. It is a poor match for the VibraTech handle, or for the dead-man paddle only the WP names.

Common questions

Is every Metabo 125 the same voltage?
No. Here the W 750-125 is listed at 240 V, WEV order 603625000 is the other 240 V listing, and the WEV 15-125 is listed at 230 V. The WP 11-125 and WEV order 603625390 are 110 V. The two 18 V bodies are bare cordless tools. The WEV 850-125 set prints no voltage. Disc size is shared. Supply is not.
Which order number is the 110 V WEV 11-125?
Order 603625390. The technical line says 110 volts AC and 1,100 W, and the bullets print 2,800–10,500 per minute, 125 mm, 3 Nm and M14. The shelf price here is £94.00, the same as the 240 V twin. Order 603625000 is the 220–240 V tool on Metabo UK. The 110 V included line names the grinder only.
Does “Quick” mean a tool-free nut is in the box?
Only where the listing names M-Quick. That is the 240 V WEV bullet, the WP included list and the WEV 15-125 box list. The W 750-125, both cordless bodies and the 850 set list a two-hole nut. The 110 V WEV included line does not name a nut. Quick on a different model does not fill this carton.
Do the cordless prices include a battery?
No. The W 18 7-125 at £68.99 excludes the pack and the charger, and a bullet names CAS 18 V packs. The brushless body at £74.95 excludes them in the title, and its bullets do not say CAS. Both figures are the body only. A corded price is the closer match if you need to cut without a second purchase.
What should I check on the £174 set before I assume 230 V?
Whether any voltage is printed. Order 603611510 on amazon does not print volts. It does print 850 W, 11,500 per minute, a two-hole nut, a 125 x 22 mm diamond disc and a plastic case, and it has no star line. A retailer page for that order may say 230 V. Until this listing or the plate says so, leave 230 V unticked.
