The DeWalt DCW210B is the 20V MAX 5 inch random orbit sander. It runs on the DeWalt 20V battery and smooths wood fast. Sanding makes a cloud of very fine dust that hangs in the air.
The sander has a dust port on the side. Send us the shape and we will tell you if we can make it.

DeWalt DCW210B Dust Port: What Connects To It
Send us the shape and we will tell you if we can make it.
The small dust bag that comes with the sander fills up fast and lets fine dust slip past. Most shop vac hoses are 1-7/8 inch or 2-1/2 inch, so they do not fit this collar on their own.

How to Connect a Shop Vac to the DeWalt DCW210B Sander
Pull the dust bag off and clear any dust out of the side port first. A clean port gives the best fit.
If we can make an adapter for this tool, press the tool end onto the collar. Then press your shop vac hose onto the other end.
Turn the vac on before you start sanding. Dust collection on a sander is not just about a clean bench. Fine sanding dust is the kind that hangs in the air and gets into your lungs.
Why Dust Collection Matters on a Random Orbital Sander
A random orbital sander makes very fine dust. That dust floats. It does not fall to the floor like saw chips do.
Pulling that dust at the port keeps more of it out of the air. It also keeps the pad clean, which helps your sandpaper last longer and cut better.
For the smoothest finish, run a steady vac while you sand. Any shop vac with the right adapter does the main job.
DeWalt DCW210B Dust Collection FAQ
Will a GulpDust adapter fit the DeWalt DCW210B dust port?+
Maybe. Measure the dust opening on your tool. Send us the shape on the custom request form and we will tell you if we can make it.
Does the DeWalt DCW210B work with a regular shop vac?+
Maybe. A standard shop vac hose does not fit this shaped port on its own. Send us the shape on the custom request form and we will tell you if we can make an adapter for it.
Do I need clamps or tape to attach the adapter?+
Maybe. Whether it holds depends on the shape. Send us the shape on the custom request form and we will tell you if we can make it.
Why does the DCW210B need dust collection so much?+
Sanders make very fine dust that floats in the air. That dust is the kind that is bad to breathe. Pulling it at the port keeps more of it out of the air and helps the sandpaper last longer.
Do you sell the design file?+
No. We sell the finished part. Each one is printed to order in PETG and ships from the US.
Does the same adapter fit other DeWalt 20V MAX tools?+
Not always. Ports can differ between DeWalt 20V MAX tools, so measure the port on yours. The builder prints the adapter to the number you enter.
