2-1/2" ABS Plastic Manual Blast Gate (70133)
Streamline Your Shop's Airflow
The POWERTEC 70133 2-1/2" Blast Gate is an essential component for any multi-machine dust collection or shop vacuum system. By acting as an in-line shut-off valve, this gate allows you to direct 100% of your system’s suction to a single machine while closing off unused lines. This maximizes the efficiency of your dust collector, ensuring that fine sawdust and heavy chips are removed at the source rather than lingering in your shop air.
Constructed from industrial-grade Black ABS Plastic, this blast gate is engineered to withstand the abrasive nature of wood chips and debris. The smooth sliding gate action features a built-in stop to prevent the slide from being accidentally pulled out of the housing, ensuring a frustration-free workflow during project transitions.
- Airflow Optimization: Prevents suction loss by sealing off inactive ports in your ductwork.
- Abrasion Resistant: Tough ABS plastic construction handles wood, plastic, and non-ferrous metal debris with ease.
- Easy Maintenance: The simplistic sliding design is easy to clear of any occasional clogs or fine dust buildup.
- Self-Cleaning Design: The sliding gate helps scrape away residue from the seat during every open/close cycle.
- Universal 2-1/2" Fitting: Sized to fit standard small-shop hoses and fittings (Note: Requires a Flex Cuff for port-to-port connections).
