Alpha Ecoguard W Series Dust Collection Cover, 6-Inch

The Alpha Ecoguard Type W6 is a dust collection cover designed for cutting applications that use wider-kerf diamond blades. It must be connected to a vacuum or another dust collection system to collect dust and larger particles generated during cutting.

A wing-nut adjustment allows the cutting depth to be changed easily, while the integrated nose guide indicates the cutting line. The clear polycarbonate construction also provides visibility inside the cover during operation, which is especially useful for tuck-pointing applications.

Additional connectors are included to accommodate a wider range of grinders.
