Ecoguard Type W5

Alpha® has expanded its Ecoguard line for cutting applications to include a dust collection cover for wider blades: Introducing the Ecoguard Type W5. Unlike the Ecoguard Type C which uses a supplied dust collection bag, the Ecoguard Type W5 must be used with a vacuum, or other dust collection system, to successfully collect the dust and larger particles derived from using wider kerf diamond blades such as the Alpha® Tuck Pointing or Crack Chasing blades.

Features
