Makita has released two new dust extraction solutions for concrete contractors. The Grinder Dust Shroud and Dustless Hammer Attachment are engineered for cleaner, more efficient concrete surfacing and drilling.
The new dustless hammer attachment works with Makita SDS-PLUS corded and cordless rotary hammers. It features a 17- inch hose, telescoping spring-loaded barrel, depth stop, bit size adjustment knobs and a built-in ruler.
Use of this attachment with most jobsite vacuums results in better suction and more efficient dust extraction. Because there is no vacuum motor or component attached to the tool, the Makita solution is more compact and weighs less than built-on systems.
Makita’s new grinder dust shroud is designed to fit Makita 4 1/2-inch to 5- inch grinders. It features a spring-loaded suspension system that keeps the shroud flush to the surface during movement and compensates for blade wear. The shroud has a removable edge piece for surface work flush to edges or other objects. It also has soft brushes that help contain the dust and allow for smooth movement over the work surface. The outside diameter of the extraction port will work with most standard vacuum hose systems.
