This dust extraction kit is the ideal choice for OSHA Table 1 compliance and clean working environments. It is commonly used for: drilling concrete anchor holes; drilling through-holes in finished masonry walls; overhead concrete drilling; installing rebar dowels in occupied buildings; and drilling in hospitals, schools, or residential basements where airborne dust must be completely eliminated.

The DeWalt DWH050K is designed for hammer drilling holes up to 2 inches in diameter. It includes interchangeable drilling heads to accommodate different size ranges, ensuring a tight seal against the concrete surface for maximum suction.

Yes, for proper dust containment and OSHA compliance, you must pair this attachment with a high-quality vacuum. We highly recommend renting a certified HEPA vacuum (such as our rental SKU: VACHEPA) to ensure fine concrete dust is safely filtered and contained.

The attachment uses the vacuum's suction to adhere itself to the wall or floor surface, allowing you to have both hands free to operate the rotary hammer. Ensure the surface is relatively flat and swept free of heavy debris so the rubber seal can create a secure hold.

Yes, this rental kit includes hole clean-out devices (nozzles) that allow you to clear dust from the bottom of the drilled hole using your vacuum. This is a critical step for ensuring mechanical or adhesive concrete anchors achieve their rated holding strength.

No, this kit is specifically designed for drilling holes up to 2 inches in diameter. If you are doing concrete chiseling, bushing, or light demolition, you will need a different shroud attachment designed for chipping hammers to properly capture the dust.

While this shroud and a HEPA vacuum capture the vast majority of airborne crystalline silica dust, we still highly recommend wearing safety glasses and an approved N95 or HEPA respirator. Always check your specific jobsite's OSHA safety plan for compliance requirements.
