Review on πŸ’¨ Maximize Efficiency with POWERTEC 70108 4 Inch Blast Gate for Dust Collector/Vacuum Fittings by Tremain Lapan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Poor quality, works well when it works but great customer service

I have several of these at my shop and they work great when freshly installed; However, dust accumulates in the shutter area, which prevents it from closing completely, significantly reducing the ability to close the connector, which in turn significantly reduces its effectiveness. Also, one of them fell apart with minimal use, but their customer service was excellent and they said they would send me a replacement for this one. BTW I only gave "suction power" 2 stars given the above but obviously the suction power has nothing to do with this part but I interpreted the question as "the ability to close the suction as intended".

Pros
  • Quality: Made from high quality black ABS plastic, this unit is built to last and abrasion resistant - it will stand up to the daily wear and tear of dirt, sawdust and shavings
Cons
  • Good but not great
