Mini Gorilla goes on a diet

Oneida Air Systems introduced a new molded Mini Gorilla portable dust collector, featuring three 360-degree non-marking casters.

The molded Mini Gorilla operates using cyclonic action to capture more than 99 percent of dust. It stands 64” tall, weighs 85 lbs., and is 30 percent lighter than the original Mini Gorilla, made from steel, according to the company.

The collector also features a U.S.-made 1.5 hp motor, 5” inlet, and has a system performance of up to 600 cfm.

“Additional benefits to the consumer include a 22-gallon dust drum that features a locking lid with a viewing window to see dust level; a patented third-party tested and G.E. Certified H12 true HEPA filter, which has been tested by an accredited third-party testing lab and proven to far outperform other dust collection filters on the market; and a built-in vacuum connection on the filter that allows the user to clean the filter without removing it by simply attaching the hose of any standard-sized wet/dry vacuum to it,” the company said in a statement.

The molded Mini Gorilla sells for about $1,000.

Accessories, sold separately, include reducers, flex hose and drum liner bags.
