The Makita BO5041 produces fine dust through both its extraction port and cooling vents, limiting the effectiveness of standard vacuum adapters. This specialized attachment addresses this problem by connecting to your sander's dust port while simultaneously capturing airborne particles expelled through the side cooling vents. The result is dramatically improved dust collection performance that keeps your workspace cleaner and reduces airborne particulates.

Key Features

• Dual Collection Design: Captures dust from both the extraction port and side cooling vents for comprehensive dust control

• Universal Hose Compatibility: Available with connections for standard shop vacuum hose diameters: 1-1/4", 1-1/2", and 2-1/2" (2-1/2” recommended for maximum performance)

• Impact-Resistant Construction: Manufactured from durable ABS plastic designed to withstand workshop conditions

• Lightweight Design: Weighs approximately 100 grams, maintaining sander maneuverability without compromising performance

• Simple Installation: Slides directly onto the sander's existing dust collector port with no tools or hardware required

• Optimized for 3M Xtract Discs: Works exceptionally well with 3M Xtract sanding discs to maximize dust extraction efficiency

This attachment solves a fundamental problem with the Makita BO5041: fine dust escaping through cooling vents that standard collection methods miss. By addressing both dust sources simultaneously, you'll experience cleaner sanding operations and reduced cleanup time. The lightweight construction maintains your sander's balance and performance while the durable ABS plastic construction ensures long-term reliability in demanding workshop environments.
