DastoolExpert Surface Grinding Dust Shroud for Angle Grinder 4.5/5 inch +Diamond Cup Wheel 5 inch

I'm getting ready to put down an aluminum garage door threshold and before I can do that, the garage floor needed to be as flat as possible. I had one small high spot and needed to grind it down. I bought an inexpensive angle grinder, a diamond disc (here on Amazon) and this shroud.I was concerned about it fitting because I bought a Harbor Freight grinder, not a name brand. It fit great with one of the adapters. The tool for tightening the shaft rings is the wrong size so I had to use the one that came with the grinder. The "universal" hose adapter didn't work for me. I have a 30 year old Shop-Vac and the nozzles are the same diameter as the shroud attachment port. I ended up taking a Shop-Vac replacement hose I had, but never needed and cut the attachments off the ends and that hose fit the shroud and my vac nozzle perfectly. I bought this shroud because it came with that adapter. Don't let the adapter be your deciding factor like I did because it's pretty useless.I actually used this shroud today and it worked great! Not a spec of dust escaped from it and that's why it gets 5 stars. That's the main reason for having this, right? The only thing I don't like is you can't see the disc, so you're flying blind under there and I had a specific spot to grind down. Everything worked out okay for me though. I now have a level garage floor AND it's dust free!If all you need is the dust shroud, this is good. It definitely reduces dust.

This does not fit the Makita XAG20Z. The metal adapter was the closest but was still wobbly even after tightening the adjustment bolt to the max. Without a good fit, the spinning grinding wheel would contact and cut the bristles of this cover and create more mess. And this cover would come off alignment with even the slightest bump. So dangerous that I gave up on using this.

Pros1. It fits my Ryobi angle grinderCons1. Once you start the grinder, the whole thing becomes loose and gets detached. That is dangerous2. The supplied dust connection port does not fit the standard dust connection hose(pic attached). Reached out to Dastool support to see if received a defective piece. They asked me to figure it out on my own(really ?). Tried to heat up the rubber attachment to fix it to the hose. Gets detached easily. Returned. Amazon customer service was good.

Dust Shroud probably does not fit all angle grinders. Tighten position of the Dust Shroud is at an odd position with my grinder. Dust Shroud is way too deep and my grinder disc is an inch above the surface in the Dust Shroud.

The package arrived on time as scheduled and the quality looks good.

Does not fit my DEWALT XR 4.5-in 20-Volt Max Cordless Angle Grinder

Works excellent.

Just what I needed. Perfect.
