The Genuine XtraHand® – Hands-Free Dust Extraction for Drilling, Cutting & Grinding
The Genuine XtraHand® by DrillBuddy UK Ltd is an unrivalled hands-free dust extraction tool designed to remove dust and debris directly at source while drilling, cutting and grinding.
Whether you're a professional tradesperson, contractor, woodworker, builder, electrician, plumber, decorator or DIY enthusiast, the XtraHand allows you to keep both hands on your power tool for greater control, improved accuracy and a cleaner, safer working environment.
Unlike handheld dust extraction methods, the XtraHand attaches itself securely to the work surface using your vacuum's suction, leaving both hands free to operate the power tool exactly as it was designed.
Always Choose the Genuine XtraHand®
Always choose the Genuine XtraHand®, identified by the embossed XtraHand logo.
Only genuine products designed and manufactured by DrillBuddy UK Ltd are tested to meet our standards for performance, durability and reliability.
One Tool. Multiple Applications.
Unlike many extraction tools that are designed for only one purpose, the Genuine XtraHand works with an exceptionally wide range of drilling, cutting and grinding applications, including:
- Masonry Drill Bits
- Tile Drill Bits
- Bullet Drill Bits
- High Speed Steel (HSS) Drill Bits
- Flat Wood (Spade) Bits
- Auger Bits
- Hole Saws up to 64mm
- Oscillating Multi-Tools
- 5" Angle Grinders
In fact, it's the only hands-free dust extraction tool designed to work across all of these applications.
Designed for Maximum Dust Extraction
The XtraHand is manufactured in the UK from durable ABS plastic containing approximately 15% recycled material.
Its extra-wide extraction port measures almost 70mm, allowing dust and debris from drill bits, hole saws and cutting tools to be captured efficiently.
The internal extraction area exceeds 2cm², allowing even larger debris from timber, MDF, plywood, composite boards and similar materials to be removed quickly and effectively.
Hands-Free by Design
The base of the Genuine XtraHand uses a soft, flexible TPE sealing skirt, allowing the tool to securely attach itself to many surfaces using your vacuum's suction.
Once attached, both hands remain on the power tool where they belong, improving:
- Control
- Accuracy
- Visibility
- Safety
The level of suction achieved will always depend upon the power of the vacuum or dust extractor being used.
Three Professional Flexible Hose Adapters Included
This package includes three Professional Flexible Hose Adapters, giving you greater flexibility when using multiple vacuums, dust extractors and compatible power tools.
Whether you own more than one vacuum, prefer to leave dedicated adapters fitted, or simply want spares ready for future projects, this package offers the greatest versatility and convenience.
Unlike many standard hose adapters currently available, ours was designed by a tradesperson with decades of hands-on experience using dust extraction systems, who understood exactly what a professional hose adapter needs to do and should do.
Flexible TPE Construction
Many universal hose adapters are manufactured from rigid ABS plastic.
Rigid adapters can be difficult to fit, awkward to trim and often require force to connect to extraction ports.
Our Professional Flexible Hose Adapters are manufactured from flexible TPE rubber, allowing them to expand and compress as they fit.
This provides:
- A more secure friction fit.
- Easier installation.
- Better compatibility with a wider range of vacuum hoses and power tool extraction ports.
- Simple trimming using a standard utility knife.
Unique Tapered Leading Edges
Every Genuine XtraHand Professional Hose Adapter features tapered leading edges on every internal and external stepped section.
These tapered leading edges help guide the adapter smoothly into slightly oversized or undersized hose connections, reducing resistance and making installation quick, simple and frustration free.
It is a small design feature that makes a significant difference in everyday use.
Why Three Professional Flexible Hose Adapters?
Having three Professional Flexible Hose Adapters gives you much greater flexibility.
Many users own more than one vacuum or dust extractor, while others prefer to leave dedicated adapters permanently fitted to their favourite compatible power tools.
Additional adapters also allow you to:
- Leave adapters permanently fitted to different vacuum hoses.
- Connect a wider range of compatible workshop machines.
- Keep spare adapters ready whenever you need them.
- Save time by reducing the need to constantly swap adapters between different tools and vacuums.
It's a simple upgrade that makes your dust extraction system even more convenient.
Designed to Fit More Tools
The Professional Flexible Hose Adapter has been developed to work with a wide range of:
- Vacuum cleaners
- Dust extractors
- Cordless power tools
- Routers
- Some sanders
- Mitre saws
- Table saws
- Some circular saws
- Many other compatible workshop machines
Its flexible construction allows it to fit many connections that would normally require expensive brand-specific adapters.
