Product Description
Milwaukee 4-1/2 in. - 5 in. Surface Grinding Dust Shroud
Model Number: 49-40-6200
The Milwaukee 49-40-6200 4-1/2 in. - 5 in. Surface Grinding Dust Shroud is a professional-grade dust collection attachment designed for concrete contractors, masonry trades, restoration crews, and any tradesperson grinding cured concrete, masonry, stone, or other silica-containing materials with a compatible Milwaukee 4-1/2 in. to 7 in. angle grinder. The shroud is engineered specifically to address OSHA's respirable crystalline silica regulation under 29 CFR 1926.1153, which restricts allowable airborne silica dust exposure on construction jobsites. When paired with the Milwaukee 8960-20 8 Gallon Dust Extractor or the Milwaukee 0888-20 9 Gallon Dust Extractor (both sold separately), the 49-40-6200 delivers complete OSHA Table 1 compliance for surface grinding applications, eliminating the need for an exposure assessment, exposure control plan, medical surveillance, and other administrative burdens that apply when Table 1 compliance is not used.
The defining engineering feature of the 49-40-6200 is the combination of a rotatable front access door with high-density bristles around the perimeter. The rotatable door lets the operator grind flush against walls, edges, corners, and obstructions without removing the shroud from the grinder, which is the productivity feature that separates this professional shroud from cheaper aftermarket alternatives. High-density bristles maintain contact with the work surface around the entire shroud perimeter, maximizing the dust capture efficiency and preventing the escape of fine respirable dust that would otherwise escape from gaps in the seal. The quick attach-and-go installation lets the operator mount the shroud to the grinder in seconds without tools, then attach the dust extraction hose to the integrated vacuum port. The shroud rotates around the grinder spindle as a single unit, so when the operator changes grinding direction, the door and dust port rotate to follow without requiring a separate adjustment.
Compatibility is the most critical specification to verify before ordering, since the 49-40-6200 will only work with newer Milwaukee grinders that use the pin tang guard mounting system, specifically every Milwaukee 4-1/2 in. - 5 in., 4-1/2 in. - 6 in., and 4-1/2 in. - 7 in. AC/DC angle grinder manufactured in 2018 or later. Older Milwaukee grinders manufactured before 2018 use a different guard attachment system and will NOT accept this shroud. For older Milwaukee grinders, the Milwaukee 49-40-6101 Surface Grinding Dust Shroud serves the smaller AC and DC angle grinders in the older grinder family. For 7 in. grinders requiring a larger shroud, see the Milwaukee 49-40-6220 7 in. Concrete Surface Grinding Dust Shroud, sold separately. The 49-40-6200 is rated for 110 CFM of dust extraction airflow, which matches the capacity of the recommended Milwaukee dust extractors. Always verify your specific grinder's manufacturing year and guard mounting system before ordering to confirm compatibility.
