Festool Dust Extractor Blast Gate VS-CT AC/SRM45 PLANEX (497926)

Why do you need a blast gate on a Festool Dust Extractor? Well, the Festool Blast Gate actually works as a very effective filter cleaner. Just close the gate and the increased suction inside the extractor knocks accumulated material off of the filter, ensuring maximum dust extraction efficiency. Of course, you can also use it as a simple lid to prevent dust from escaping during transport.
