Diment Power Universal Surface Grinding Dust Shroud for Angle Grinder 115mm / 125mm

Bought this for a job profiling 3'x2' paving slabs, fabricating an access ramp for my elderly parents' garden, after I'd previously choked on the copious clouds of cement dust I was producing, coating everything in the garden, myself, and next door.Not realising then just how unhealthy breathing this dust actually is.A direct easy push fit for my trusty old entry level Draper angle grinder. Although several adapter rings are also provided to accept fitting to other manufacturers' equipment.Also included is an offset disc key, handy to reach into the recessed centre of the grinding disc, otherwise out of reach inside the shroud with my angle grinder's original flat profile key.The shroud's brush skirt is sprung, keeping a good seal around the workpiece while grinding, efficiently containing the dust.The grey front part of the shroud rotates 90° to the side, to allow working right up into the edge of an upright, eg on stairs.The soft rubber tapered hose adaptor facilitates attaching a wide range of manufacturers vacuum hoses, to extract the problematic silicate dust that can injure the lungs, caused me difficult coughing fits.An experience this device is thankfully designed to prevent.All in all, a handy piece of kit, that I only now realise what I have been missing.

Duncurin was faced with grinding an old but newly-renovated concrete conservatory floor and overnighted by Amazon were the Makita angle grinder, diamond cup disc, both reviewed and I also chose this dust collector.This wasn’t my first choice as I had chosen one made by Makita which although more expensive was, I thought, worth it as I knew it would definitely fit. The Makita shroud however wasn’t available for a few days and I was keen to get on with the horrendous job in hand that I didn’t relish. The specs on this dust shroud assured me that it would fit the Makita and this was perfectly true. It took me a couple of minutes and a secure fit was produced that didn’t foul the angle grinder or the diamond cup disc and yet at least did its best to form a bit of a seal with the floor and with extraction reduce some of the dust. The spacer that comes with it was also essential as the diamond cup failed to lock down properly in the angle grinder without it. The vacuum hose fitted without trouble though I must confess to having used some duct tape or duck tape or whatever it’s called to form a tight seal and to ensure that the hose did not come away – actually it did this once and the dust even with the shroud is ferocious but without it the dust takes on Biblical proportions. The hose coming away is actually quite useful as you then realise that this little shroud is actually doing a good job but please whatever you do – expect a lot of dust. The wet and dry 16 litre vacuum I have which is designed for dust needed me to use the optional dust bags which filled within minutes and needed changing. Not using the bags would have blocked the standard filter within minutes and destroyed the machine.All in all then, this is an ideal and relatively inexpensive way of reducing the amount of dust that is cast out. It is cheaper than the Makita one, but fits perfectly and easily. It was also delivered more quickly which for me was the real clincher.

Fitted to a Makita cordless grinder without a problem and vacuum connection was good with soft plastic adaptor. Very effective dust removal using a 125mm diamond cup wheel grinding a concrete wall.Plastic construction was ok for short term use but unlikely to be as durable as an expensive contract quality item. Excellent for the price though.

works very well on cordless or corded grinder , seems well made and good value , i have yet to try it properly on my older 4 inch grinder using the additional spacer as it didn't seem to tighten fully

Worked perfectly. Cut through about 5mm over 8-10 sqm of a self levelling install done years ago that was not very good. Minimal amount of dust escaped the shroud. I would recommend a M Class hoover/dust extractor to go with this for optional performance. Cutting disc was very good and performed as expected. Used on a 115mm angle grinder with no issues, but probably due to angle grinder being quite powerful.

Needed this after a section of floor needed levelling out. It’s not a bad piece of kit, but…trying to get it to fit can be very fiddly & frustrating.On the other hand it does do the job well. Apart from the fitting all hoover pipes. It doesn’t. I have a Henry hoover, one of the most popular & it doesn’t fit the exhaust part. So some gaffer tape later I got a good seal.You really need to make sure it’s well clamped on otherwise it’ll move around and end up getting damaged.

Does a good job suppressing dust .You still need to wear a mask, attaches well to Numatic hoover (MrHenry)

Broke after few weeks, not happy with this product
