I have looked at the bag dimensions of the Harbor Freight 2 HP dust collector and those of the Delta 50-850 dust collector I just purchased used for $150.00. It seems that the diameter of the bags are 19 1/2 inches for both.
That leads me to the conclusion that the 1 micron canister filter sold by HF for $150.00 would fit the Delta machine. Instead of paying $270.00 for the Delta canister, I'm thinking about giving it a try. It seems the rims are the same, so mounting methods would probably be the same also.
Has anyone tried this combination? Should I give it a try??? Is there anything I may be overlooking? Quality seems similar, also...
Your opinions are welcome!
