Silica Dust Containment Bag
$280.00 – $1,340.00
High Efficiency
What good is moving all of the silica dust – if it isn’t completely contained? Both filter bags can be used with all 3 size blowers (16″ single speed, 16″ & 24″ variable speed). The open end of the filter bags are oversized, allowing them to be used on larger size blowers (up to 32″ diameter).
Fitted over the shroud of the blower, the filter bags are secured using a hose clamp or ratchet strap.
High Efficiency Silica Dust Containment Bags

FILTER BAG FEATURES
Large Collection Yields. 7′ filter bag easy holds 200+ pounds of dry silica dust before the filter sock needs cleans. As you collect the volume and the filter bag fills, you’ll eventually being to notice the debris reversing its flow into the bag and exiting on the intake side of the blower. This is your sign that the filter bag is long overdue to be emptied and cleaned.
Lower Suction Drop. The smoothness of the media ensures excellent cake release from the surface of each filter bag. While the homogenous nature of pore distribution prevents the particles from penetration and being retained in the filter media. Both of these factors figure together to ensure a lower suction drop (longer operating times) than with conventional felt filters.
Lower Emissions. The fineness and even distribution of the pores also creates a higher efficiency rating with dusts that contain a high proportion of fume (particles less than 3 micron).
Extreme Durability. Made of a canvas / blue-jean denim type of material for rugged durability, wear and tear resistant. A+ for efficiency rating and durability, even while being handled and dragged for disposal. Re-useable, completely washable
DUST APPLICATIONS: Limestone, Bio-Chemical, Lead Sugar, Cement, Precious Metals, Zinc Chloride, Zinc Oxide, Pigments, Fertilizer, Foundry Sane, Dyestuffs, etc.
Efficiency Data on using the Silica Dust Filter Bag
Two (2) Examples: Efficiency / Usage Data.
Jack Hammering & Concrete Sawing.
- Ventilation Equipment: (1) 16″ Power Blower, 4′ x 15′ Filter Bag
- Man Power: (5) workers jack hammering & concrete sawing
- Confided Area Size: 35′ x 25′ x 8′ – Completely enclosed
- AIRSTREAM Performance:
- Inside containment, 90% Clean
- Outside containment, 100% Clean
- Filter bag was emptied and clean after 5 working days.
Sand Blasting Project (The same filter bag from the above application was used – it wasn’t washed).
- Equipment: Same as above (16″ Power Blower and 4′ x 15′ Filter Bag)
- Confided Area Size: Same as above (35′ x 25′ x 8′ – completely enclosed area)
- AIRSTREAM Performance:
- Inside containment, 90% Clean
- Outside containment, 100% Clean
- Filter bag was cleaned each day with a vacuum
Considerably more dust was created during sandblasting than with saw cutting.
