Versatile Axial Extraction for Custom Workshop Jigs and Machinery

The POWERTEC 70298 is a professional-grade 2.5-inch Dust Port Inlet Flange, specifically precision-engineered to eliminate the connection friction common in localized workshop extraction. This specialized port is the definitive choice for woodworkers who need to execute 100% efficient axial air intake on router tables, sanding stations, and CNC covers. Featuring high-impact ABS plastic construction, the 70298 series provides the structural rigidity and zero-leak mechanical bond required to anchor your 2-1/2" flexible hose to any flat surface manifold.

Constructed with a **precision-tapered port geometry**, this flange facilitates a stable mechanical interface for standard 2-1/2" ID hoses or tapered quick-connect fittings. The integrated 4-hole mounting plate ensures a rigid anchor point, preventing the port from shifting or breaking axial to the machine housing during high-velocity vacuum operation. Whether you are building a custom lower port for a router box or outfitting a portable planer, this inlet flange delivers the structural durability and rapid-swap speed required for showroom-quality results.

Key Product Benefits:
  • Elite Axial Airflow: Tapered 2.5" OD port ensures a 100% efficient friction-fit with standard flexible hoses.
  • Rapid-Mount Engineering: Features 4 pre-bored mounting holes for surgical-grade securement to any flat workshop surface.
  • Durable ABS Architecture: High-density polymer survives the abrasive nature of sawdust and woodchips in industrial environments.
  • Versatile Shop Utility: Ideal for custom CNC covers, router table cabinets, and benchtop machinery conversions.
  • Seamless Integration: Easily pairs with 4" to 2.5" reducers to bridge gaps between large manifolds and small-port tools.
PRO TIP: For a zero-leak axial seal, apply a bead of silicone caulk axial to the flange base before securing with mounting screws.
