What this page is
buythis.co.za/dust-collectors-extractor-fans is the dust and fume extraction section of Buythis, AM.CO.ZA's online shop. On the live page it is only a heading, a link to extractor videos and tiles to the machine sections that need extraction. This knowledge base page lists 23 AM.CO.ZA dust collectors, dust hoses and parts, extraction fans and small axial fans with current prices, explains what each type is for, and points to the related pages in this knowledge base.
Two kinds of machine need extraction. CNC routers throw off wood, MDF, Supawood and plastic chips and fine dust, which a dust collector sucks up through a hose and catches in filter bags. Laser cutters (CO2 and fiber) make smoke and fumes rather than chips, which an extraction fan pulls out of the machine through ducting to the outside.

AG-DUST5 (KB) |
380V, 5.5kW, two buckets and four bags | Generic Industrial Dust Collector 380V 5.5kW, Two Buckets & Four Bags | R 8 280.00 |
AG-DUST7 (KB) |
380V, 7.5kW, two buckets and four bags | Generic Industrial Dust Collector 380V 7.5kW, Two Buckets & Four Bags | R 12 880.00 |
AG-DUST/75 (KB) |
380V, 7.5kW dust collector | 7.5kW 380V Dust Collector | R 17 480.00 |
AG-DUST8 (KB) |
380V, 7.5kW, four buckets and eight bags | Generic Industrial Dust Collector 380V 7.5kW, Four Buckets & Eight Bags | R 20 240.00 |
These are bag-type dust collectors: a motor-driven fan pulls air and chips through the hose, and the chips and fine dust are caught in the collector's bags. The 3kW units come in a 220V single phase version (AG-DUST2/L) for workshops without three phase power and a 380V version (AG-DUST2). The 4kW to 7.5kW units are three phase industrial collectors for larger routers, and the eight-bag AG-DUST8 has the most bag capacity for long production runs.
Dust hoses and dust collector parts
| SKU | What it is | Product | Sales price incl. VAT |
|---|---|---|---|
AG-DUST/100 (KB) |
100mm flexible wire-reinforced dust hose, about 10m | Φ100mm (Adapt to 90-110mm) Flexible Dust Hose with Metal Wire, Super Durable, about 10 Metres Length | R 901.60 |
AG-DUST/100/L (KB) |
100mm flexible dust hose, about 6m | Φ100mm (Adapt to 90-110mm) 6 meter Flexible Dust Hose with Wire, about 6 Metres Length | R 542.80 |
AG-DUST/SS (KB) |
Support structure that holds a 100mm hose above the machine | Dust Hose Support Structure for Φ100mm Flexible Hose | R 450.80 |
AE-MOTOR/3KW (KB) |
Replacement 3kW 380V three phase motor for a dust collector | 3kW AC Motor (4 HP) 380V Three Phase Cast Iron 2800RPM for Dust Collector | R 5 244.00 |
The 100mm flexible hose connects the router's dust shoe to the collector; the hose support keeps it off the gantry and the work so it does not snag while the router moves.
Extraction fans for laser cutters
| SKU | What it is | Product | Sales price incl. VAT |
|---|---|---|---|
AG-FAN/400 (KB) |
400W centrifugal exhaust blower | Generic 400W Centrifugal Exhaust Blower | R 1 748.00 |
AG-FAN (KB) |
550W extraction fan, 150mm inlet and outlet | Generic 550W Extraction Fan 2800RPM, Flow 15m³/min Pressure 1.7 Kpa, with 150mm Ducting Hose Inlet/Outlet Connector | R 1 196.00 |
AG-FAN/750 (KB) |
750W extraction fan, 150mm ducting | Generic 750W Extraction Fan 2800RPM, Flow Rate 17m³/min Pressure 1.9 Kpa, with 150mm Ducting Hose Inlet/Outlet Connector | R 2 116.00 |
AG-FAN/1100 (KB) |
1100W extraction fan, 150mm ducting | Generic 1100W Extraction Fan 2800RPM, Flow Rate 21m³/min Pressure 2.3 Kpa, with 150mm Ducting Hose Inlet/Outlet Connector | R 2 208.00 |
AG-FAN/1500 (KB) |
1500W 220V centrifugal extraction fan for laser cutters, 150mm pipe | 1500W 220V Centrifugal Extraction Fan, 150mm Dust Pipe Diameter, Laser Cutting Machine Exhaust Extractor | R 4 692.00 |
These centrifugal fans pull smoke and fumes out of a laser cutter's cabinet and push them through 150mm ducting to outside the building. Bigger machines and longer duct runs need a stronger fan; the 1500W unit is sold specifically as a laser cutting machine exhaust extractor.

170mm 220V steel axial fan | 220V 170mm General Purpose Steel AC Axial Fan | R 671.60 |
These small fans are general purpose ventilation and extraction fans, used for cooling electronics cabinets and power units or moving air out of small enclosures. They are not a replacement for a laser extraction fan.
Prices are current Buythis prices including VAT from the product dump dated 2026-10-20. Some prices come from older dump entries (2026-05-13, 2026-10-17, 2026-10-18, 2026-10-19); confirm those on the product page. Check the product page before ordering, since prices change.
How to choose
- Router or laser. A CNC router needs a dust collector with a hose to the dust shoe. A laser cutter needs an extraction fan ducted outside.
- Power supply. Use a 220V model if the workshop has only single phase power, such as AG-DUST2/L. The larger collectors need 380V three phase.
- Machine size and use. A 3kW collector suits a smaller or home-business router; full-size 1300x2500mm and 2050x3050mm routers working all day are better served by 5.5kW to 7.5kW, or the eight-bag unit for long runs.
- Hoses and ducting. Plan the hose length and route before installation; keep runs short, and use the hose support so the hose follows the gantry.
- Other support equipment. Routers with vacuum tables also need a vacuum pump (Vacuum Pumps). Lasers also need air assist and water cooling (Air Pumps & Compressors, Cooling Equipment).
