I need to scarify / grind some expoxy off a conc. slab and would like a dust shroud that fits the Metabo W8-115 (which btw, is the greatest toolless angle grinder I've owned)

Anyone have a success to share?

Used one of those a few months ago. Used a cup wheel to grind some travertine. Thing had a shroud that we hooked up to shop vac.
Inclined to think it is available from Metabo.

Thanks - I think this must be it. Their model compatibility list is a little confusing, I'll have to call on Monday to confirm, unless someone here has used it with the W8-115 Quick

I like that hood better than the one we used. The one we used was a very thick rubber/silicon material which had a couple of attachment points that allowed for slight variation from perpendicular.
Not sure the one you show would work with a cup wheel.
Actually the tool we used had a big grab handle spanning the back of the business end.

Thanks for the tip. Watched the video and can't tell if the tool-free design on my metabo will cause issues. I don't have another "normal" grinder handy to compare. Is 2" a standard dim for the shroud?

Let me run out to the garage, I have 4 different grinders that I can measure. I will be back in a few.

Rent a floor machine at HD with a carbide cutter disk.

Ok, It will not fit my B&D Model 2750 the collar on it measures Approx. 1.525
next,My Bosch GWS 10-45P has a bosch collar that is different from every thing else.
next, My Makita 9557PB with a 1.670 collar will work with the Dima brush shrould,
and last My Dewalt 20 Volt cordless DCG 413 will not work as it also has a special collar.
I hope that helps :headscrat

I rented the HD tool when I originally epoxied the garage. UN HOLY dust cloud, not repeating it with a full shop.

Metabo says the extraction hood GED125 should work, ordered one and will see!
