A Game-Changer for My Vacuum

I recently tried out the filter triggered vacuums and was blown away by their effectiveness. As my tests showed, these filters really do a great job of capturing dust and debris, leaving my workspace cleaner and healthier. The ease of use and maintenance was another huge plus, making this a must-have accessory for any workshop or job site. The only drawback was that it required more frequent filter changes than I was used to, but that's a small price to pay for such great results. Highly…

Pros
  • Effective, easy to use
Cons
  • Requires frequent filter changes

Fits Hilti VC 20-U in power tool parts and accessories

I just received this filter and it fits my Hilti extractor like a glove. It worked perfectly the first time I used it. Pretty good considering the soldered filter costs three and a half times as much. It's a few thousandths of an inch shorter than the old filter and has different numbers printed on it, but otherwise looks identical. Like OEM, it was made in Germany.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Does not fit model 7810

The feedback description said it would fit multiple models 7810, 7812 and 7814. I have the 7810. However, the product description only said it would fit the 7812 and 7814. From reading my product manual it had the same part number as the 7812 and 7814 so I figured it was an omission in the product review as the 7810 is no longer made. I only found out after the "return date" that it wouldn't fit as I didn't have to change the filter.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.
