No Dust Sanding | Bosch Professional

The Ultimate Dust Extraction System

Bosch Particle Control improves the extraction systems even further: it greatly improves dust removal at the point of contact itself.

Remove Dust at Point of Contact

This means less dust in the air in the first place, as well as more effective and longer lasting sandpaper.

Making No Dust Possible

When using Bosch Expert M480 Sanding Net – the Particle Control sandpaper – dust moves effectively through the open net structure of the abrasive.

The No Dust Advantage with<br/>Bosch Particle Control

No Dust Sanding is achieved through the multiple innovations of Bosch Particle Control. The front line of this system is the Bosch Expert M480 Sanding Net. It removes dust efficiently from the sanding surface and into the extraction system.

Working conditions for many woodwork professionals have improved significantly since the advent of regulations to better air quality in the workplace. So far, most of these improvements have been achieved with extraction of dust through the power tool, and by large ceiling- and wall-mounted extractors that remove dust from the air in factories and workshops. What if you could extract the dust before it reaches the air?

With a modern sanding tool attached to a vacuum or filter, very little dust will escape along the sides and into the air.

Why Eliminating Dust is the Key to the Perfect Finish

Dust. It’s on your skin, on your clothes, you breathe it in your nose and you can even taste it in your mouth. It clogs your sandpaper, rendering it ineffective. It coats everything in the room, and permeates the house.

Dust is the big drawback of sanding, but the Particle Control system has largely eliminated it. With the right accessory, you can efficiently remove dust from the contact surface as you work – and that means sanding faster and better, too.

With Bosch Particle Control, you can sand without dust, for a better working environment and the perfect finish.

Achieve Superior Performance with Bosch Expert Accessories

Bosch EXPERT products achieve their performance through a series of Bosch innovative technologies based on accessory expertise.

So much dust is sucked through the tool and safely stored, that Bosch can claim it offers an outstanding ‘Dust Reduction’. And that has many advantages.

The Advantages of Dust Reduction Sanding

The Clean Work Advantage

The Clean Work Advantage - Less Dust, Less Work

For professionals who work outside of their own premises, such as joiners or shop-fitters working on a client’s property, large overhead dust extractors will not always be available. Therefore, it is especially important that these professionals remove dust effectively at tool level if they are to enjoy relatively clean air.

Working in a client’s home, better dust removal at source has a significant secondary advantage: less airborne dust means less work to protect furniture and fittings, and less cleaning up afterwards!

Using a Bosch Expert sanding net as part of the Particle Control system, you can significantly reduce dust levels in any working environment, indoors or outdoors. Tests show that the EXPERT M480 Sanding Net achieves 4 times better dust extraction than our standard C420 Sandpaper.

The Speed Advantage

The Speed Advantage - Sand Faster, for Longer

Dust, which is trapped between the abrasive and the worked surface, is the cause of many problems in sanding. This is because even if sandpaper holds its grit extremely well, the lifespan of a sheet is over once it is fully clogged with dust.

Dust, which builds up under a sanding sheet as it works – both loose on the work piece and stuck between the grains – leads to loss of efficiency and reduces the lifetime of the sanding sheet. By removing dust as soon as it is generated, you not only enjoy cleaner air: you work faster and your sanding sheet lasts longer.

That's why the Bosch EXPERT M480 Sanding Net is such of exceptional value: you get the full benefit of Dust Reduction, plus a long life sandpaper that works super-fast and creates high-quality surface finish.

The Clean Air Advantage

The Productivity Advantage with a Full Carbide Head Drill Bit

Nobody enjoys breathing in dust. For professionals who are exposed to it every day, dust can have serious consequences. The World Health Organization (WHO) says whenever people inhale airborne dust at work, they are at risk of occupational disease. Year after year, both in developed and in developing countries, overexposure to dusts causes diseases.
