In most cases, yes - but the cyclone's efficiency will vary based on whether your vacuum is also turned on. The Dust Deputy cyclone needs a consistent airflow rate to "spin" the dust out of the airstream; If your tool's fan blower is pushing air in while your vacuum is also sucking air out, this can disrupt the airflow rate and reduce the cyclone's separation performance. In many cases, the fan blower on tools (such as planers) cannot be turned off. If that is the case for you, try collecting your dust with the vacuum turned off. In doing so you will be creating a positive pressure system as the tool's fan blower pushes air through the Dust Deputy cyclone. This method may not work with every vacuum

The Multi-Tool Contractor Hose Kit is designed for commercial applications with high airflow tools (such as table saws, sanders, etc.). It uses 2.5" diameter hose that is larger than the 1.5" hose typical of many portable vacuums available to homeowners and such it require a powerful vacuum system, such as our Dust Cobra vacuum, to operate effectively. We recommend that you compare the CFM rating of your vacuum to our Dust Cobra - if they are within 50 CFM of eachother then you should be able to use this hose kit without much issue.

No. Our clear flex-hose is rated for use with cool, light dusts such as wood, plant matter, etc. Hot, smoldering materials may melt or otherwise damage the the hose.

We've heard from many customers who've had great success using a simple Wallpaper Roller to smooth out their foil tape, giving a very smooth, clean look on your ducting. The roller helps smooth out air bubbles and crinkled marks while making it easier to get those hard to reach places on hanging ductwork. We do not carry this product but it can be found easily at your local hardware store or home renovation outlet.

In addition to the cyclone and your dust collector, you will need a reinforced, airtight container to mount it to, as well as flex hose or piping to connect it to your tools and dust collector. The Deluxe kit includes the essential components, but you will still need flex hose and/or piping. Any connections should be sealed using silicone caulk or HVAC foil tape.Shop for Assembly Tools
