Felder /Hammer dust collection

[Prizen]

Have a Felder AF14 in the shed, in a box currently but hope to assemble it soon. It’s a 140mm port and the Hammer machines that it connects to are 120mm

anyone have an alternative to Felder for buying ducting, connectors etc? Also looking for blast gates

When I was connecting up a range of Felder machinery to a Felder dust extractor I looked high and low for a cheaper alternative...but failed miserably.

Damn clever these Austrians, they've figured out how to make us pay absolute top dollar for simple bits of piping!

Try dustspares.co.uk
I get my extractor bags there.

If Ive understood the problem correctly then google 120 mm to 140mm fan adapter or duct adapter or even consider a Floplast Underground Flexible adapter might fit, hope Im on the right track.

This is how I reduced down by 10 mm in diameter, just a strip of vinyl flooring. Not what you would call posh but it’s been working like that for 8?years

Hi,
I have the Felder RL125 extractor which is hooked up to 4 Felder/Hammer machines.
I have done 150mm spiral ducting from all the machines back to the extractor and the last small run is done on flexible pipe reducing down to 120mm.
I purchased all my spiral ducting, bends, blast gates etc from EVC on e-bay.
Although they might not be the same quality as the Felder ones they certainly were one hell of a lot cheaper.

Mark.

Thanks all. I’ve sourced some 127mm semi rigid duct ( a slurry pipe from local farm suppliers!!). It’s not an entirely smooth I.d

I also have some 125mm pvc pipe which has a smooth id.

Have some blast gates and connectors on order

Butyl tape and jubilee clips to join it all together, it won’t be pretty but fingers crossed it’ll be functional..
