Festool500483 D 27-BSD Drilling Dust Nozzle, Amber

This nozzle has changed my working life. I'm constantly drilling into upper window recesses, with SDS masonry drills. I push this nozzle onto the hose of my ancient standard Henry hoover and the Festool nozzle sucks itself onto the ceiling holding the weight of the entire 2.5m Henry hose extending vertically. The drill sleeve of the nozzle sits about 3mm away from the surface so you can see your drill bit from the side as you place it on the spot or pilot hole where you want to drill. Alternatively, place the drill bit through the nozzle drill guide before sucking it on to the ceiling, place your drill bit then raise the nozzle up around the drill bit and allow it to suck into place after the drill bit already has contact with the ceiling. You can batter away without a care with your SDS drill, with both hands, and the nozzle will suck away all dust and debris. I did notice a few mortar crumbs on the window sill afterwards, they were less that 1mm in diameter and not dusty, they were perhaps pulled out with the plunging action of the SDS and had enough mass to escape the suction hole, however, they may have fallen out of previously drilled holes nearby from the vibration of the SDS. The nozzle is also slim enough to fit even narrow window recesses and you can position the drill guide right into a corner to drill holes for a roller blind bracket pushed right up into a recess corner. The dense foam gasket is squishy enough that I do believe the claims that it handles fairly smooth brick also, yet to be tested. If you only need to put the nozzle on a vertical surface with the hose hanging straight down, the angled elbow on the nozzle is easily removed. This Festool nozzle is so amazing that I've recommended it to my Ex and bought two more for colleagues. Top marks Festool, unfortunately I bought it for 30 quid and now it's 20 quid.

This nozzle, coupled with Henry and a 5m hose, transforms the process of drilling smallish holes in walls and ceilings. Gone are the facefuls of plaster dust, or carpets with a ground in white patch which is impossible to fully remove.It stays put even when using a big SDS drill on quite poor concrete surfaces and has no trouble adhering to plasterboard ceilings; there are myriad hose size options and even the price is decent (particularly for something with the Festool branding!)I have also purchased an xtrahand nozzle for use when drilling larger holes or using angle grinder / oscillating multi-tool and this is also excellent, but for smaller holes I'd say the Festool nozzle has a slight edge.

This is a great addition to my SDS drill. I always used to get the wife to help and hold a dustpan and vacuum nozzle underneath any masonry holes being drilled indoors. It was always a juggle for space and didn't work very well. This changes that.I've just drilled 32x 6mm holes for some IKEA shelving brackets, using this Festool nozzle with my workshop vacuum, which is essentially a Henry. The vacuum fits well without any tape or similar, with the right-angle removable section that came with the Festool nozzle being removed and not required in this case.On my lining-paper covered walls the nozzle held in place every time. At the end of the job, I literally did no extra cleaning. One of the photos I've added shows the collected brick dust on the white skirting boards after drilling 8 holes in a vertical line above it.My drill's depth stop works past the side of the nozzle without issue.I would say that the air does make a fair bit of noise in the nozzle, but then drilling holes in bricks does too so no problems with ear defenders to help.I also ordered a Bosch setup at 3 times the price of this, but didn't even open it as this is just what's needed. This Festool part is also small enough to fit in my drill's box for next time, unlike other larger styles.If you have a momentary trigger vacuum, like a handheld Dyson for example, this might not be quite so useful as of course the dust collection would then not be hands free.Buy one of these Festool nozzles if you have a suitable vacuum. At £20 it's ideal.

Very useful but it's a bit of a curate's egg.Does as every other reviewer is extolling about, ie it collects the drill dust before it lands on your dog by your feet.But I've given it 4 stars (generously) not because I'm mean but because:- It's bloody expensive for a piece of plastic.- it really needs narrow diameter vacuum hose into a Festool connector to work best in both configurations. Fortunately I have this anyway.- unless you're deaf already you really need to use ear defenders as the vacuum whine is ear-splitting.- makes it more difficult to start the hole as you can't see the 'x' marks the spot stuff anymore.- have to make allowances for chuck contacting the tool itself before you've drill the depth you want.- need electrical vacuum with you even though all your other tools may be rechargeable.Bottom line for me is if I could get away without using it and vacuuming up afterwards, then that's what I would do. But if you really need to avoid dust then this does its job well.

Very nice tool to have if one can justify buying it for limited use.I used this product on basement cinder block walls that by nature are not completely smooth and it worked without a problem. A must have for any drilling especially in materials containing silica.The design is limited and really isn't "improveable" by the collar which can limit how deep a drill hole can be unless one has a sufficiently long drill bit that doesn't wobble and by limiting precise sighting to begin drilling.

Diese Bohrstaub-Düse ist eines dieser Zubehörteile, bei denen ich mich frage, warum ich sie nicht schon vor Jahren gekauft habe. Ich hätte mir viele Stunden Staubwischerei und mühevolles Hantieren mit dem Staubsauger beim Bohren erspart.Das Teil ist so einfach, wie genial.Staubsaugerschlauch anstöpseln (handelsübliche Bodenstaubsauger passen), Staubsauger anschalten und das Teil saugt sich an der Wand / Tapeete fest. Auch auf Raufaser oder Rauputz.Man hat beide Hände frei zum Bohrmaschine bedienen und es kommt auch bei überkopf-Arbeiten KEIN Staubkorn daneben.Einziger Nachteil: es zischt recht laut, so dass man einen Gehörschutz verwenden sollte, wenn man nicht aufgrund der Bohrmaschine eh einen trägt.

Une très belle façon de perdre un tout petit peu de temps pour en gagner beaucoup après.Aucune poussière et un viseur parfait pour vos perforations dans tout type de murs.
