Dust Boot Spacer

The Dust Boot Spacer is a specialized accessory designed to enhance the functionality of the PDX CNC Dust Boot. It increases the depth of the Dust Boot brush, providing more coverage and thus better dust collection for longer-reach tools. But why you ask? A majority of the success of any dust boot is creating as much of a "seal" around the workpiece as possible.

Compatibility

Our Dust Boot Spacers are only compatible with the PDX CNC Dust Boot and magnetize with powerful magnets and indexing pins.

ATC Rack Compatibility

Clearance needed: Standard Spacer is 7" wide

• ✅ PDX CNC ATC Pedestals
• ✅ Non-ATC Setups
• 🚫 ShopSabre 6 or 12 ATC Racks
• 🚫 ShopSabre 5 or 10 Solid Bar Rack

Caution – Adding a spacer will likely cause the Dust Boot assembly to collide with bar style racks not cut into "Pedestal" style tool stands, like our ATC Pedestals.

We recommended slowly jogging into position with a Spacer and Brush Plate to see if collisions may occur with the rack. See our Calibration Guide for an idea of how to do such a thing.

How Many?

We have tested four 0.5" thick spacers stacked between the Dust Boot Top Plate and Bottom Plate. More is likely the line if needed but does increase the chance of accidental collisions with workholding or stock.

Have a Dust Boot made before November 2022? You'll likely need our Alignment Adapter Pins (black). They are free just choose that option when adding to cart.
