 GET A SELF CLEANING ONE May 22, 2008
THEY WORK FINE BUT FILL UP WITH DUST PARTICLES. YOU HAVE TO TAKE THEM OFF THE HOSES AND CLEAN THEM WITH A SMALL DRILL BIT. GET ONE THAT IS SELF CLEANING. WORTH THE DIFFERENCE IN PRICE
 Plastic junk March 25, 2008
Blastgates require periodic cleaning. Problem: chips collect in the two channels where the gate slides and as you close the gate, the chips get packed into the channels and the gate won't fully close. The metal version blastgate has screws and disassembles for cleaning. These plastic gates must be broken at the welds. Then what? Don't waste your money and time on these cheap plastic gates. For a few dollars more, the metal blastgates are well worth it as they are assembled with screws.
 Works great as a connection point for tools March 15, 2008

I have blast gates permanently mounted on my saws, and use the Jet quick-disconnect fittings and flex hose to connect the tools to the dust collector. Works great. Can't comment on the gate plugging as I never close it.
Fragile but good for the price May 3, 2007

For $2 each how can you go wrong. I used these in a garage dust collection system. I installed 6 of these gates. They are a bit fragile and will come apart easily front to back. one gate is installed at an output with no solid pipe attached to it and it quickler split apart. The other gates are installed between PVC pipes which provide support and I have not had a problem with those, either from breaking or from the gates not closing.
For the fragileness I give it 3 starts otherwise not reason it shouldnt have 5. I will be replacing the gate that broke with an aluminum version.

This product is a great deal at its current price. I modify it and use for a particular need in my business.
