Dust Extraction for Dust-free Sanding



Did you know this about preventing dust?

Q: How can I sand without getting dust everywhere? How do you prevent dust?

A: Most sanding naturally creates dust, and this is something Mirka takes seriously. By using on-tool dust extraction, dust can be safely removed from the working surface without it ending up in the air, or your skin, or your lungs, or anywhere you don’t want it to go. Mirka dust extractors deposit the dust safely in an easily emptied bag.

Q: Why is it important to use dust extraction instead of cleaning the surface often?

A: The most dangerous dust is so-called invisible dust that can stay airborne for a long time, building up in the lungs. It has already been in the air long before it settles down on the surfaces.

Q: Is all dust the same?

A: There are differences between types of dust. For example, paint residue can be highly toxic and dust from hard wood is extremely harmful IF inhaled for long periods of time.

Q: Do dust-free tools make protective gear unnecessary?

A: Even though Mirka’s dust-free solution removes almost all dust from the air, protective gear should always be used to protect your health. Please refer to instructions provided by your local authorities.

Q: Can you use all sanding papers with dust-free power tools and extractors?

A: Yes and no. Compatible sanding papers are available, but to get the full dust-free performance, net-like abrasives must be used: the more holes there are in an abrasive, the more efficient are its dust extracting capabilities. To be able to offer an effective abrasive with maximum dust extraction, we developed Mirka Abranet.

Q: Is dust-free equipment maintenance-free? 

A: To maintain dust-free performance, filters, dust bags and abrasives for a dust-free solution should be replaced regularly. In addition, we recommend regular cleaning of your sander.
