Note that the 230V Big Brute power unit has a 16A plug, so you’ll need a 16A supply to power it.

Choose your Big Brute Power Unit Type

All Big Brute power units provide that famous Big Brute suction power. With 3 independently switched motors, you get powerful suction that will let you clean up with long, long hoses, without loss of suction.

The Big Brute Suck & Blow power unit harnesses all the suction power to blow dust and dirt away. Switch from suck to blow in seconds.

Both power unit types are available in 230V or 110V versions.

Suck Only

The Suck Only power unit does just that - sucks. But sucks well!

Our standard Big Brute power units come with 3 motors giving a total of 3.2kW of suction power.

Suck & Blow

Our Suck & Blow power unit has the same motors and suction power as the Standard Suck Only power unit.

Simply push your suction hose onto the exhaust port to harness the Big Brute's 3.2kW of cleaning power in a continuous blast of air.

Ideal for dislodging dust and dirt from crevices or ledges.

Switch from suck to blow in seconds - and back again. Use your Big Brute's suction power to then suck up dirt and debris blown out.

With Nylon wheels, the SuperGlide trolley makes it easy to push over smooth floors, such as polished concrete.

Hose length options

Big Brute Standard Dry Suction Hose

It’s made from PVC with with a black outer with reinforcing threads, and supported by a helical PVC-coated wire.

It has an operating temperature of -20°C to 70°C and a weight of 0.5kg per metre.

Drum Options

Big Brute Drum Options let you tailor your Big Brute to your exact needs.

Make it quick, easy and clean to shake your filters with the Filter Shaker. Or add a removable internal spigot to make it easy to slide out waste in our tough disposable waste bags. Or even add a Dust Extraction port for when you want to remove dust from your machinery or processes with your Big Brute.

Big Brute drum options must be specified at the time of purchase.

Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot

Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot

If you’ve got a bag full of waste inside your Big Brute drum, the optional Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot makes it easier to empty it.

Slide the removable spigot upwards and you can slide your bags out without the risk of snagging or tearing. Keep your waste safely contained without it getting loose.

Tell us at the time of ordering if you want the optional Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot.

Ideal for use with the Big Brute Disposable Waste Bags or the reusable Big Brute Easy Empty Lift-Out Bag.

Filter Shaker

The Big Brute Filter Shaker makes it easy to keep your filters clean.

As you clean up, dust and dirt cake themselves onto your filter - that's its job.

But as you carry on cleaning, the dust and dirt on the filter can reduce the airflow, slowing your cleaning down.

Regularly shaking your filters clean can speed up your cleaning once again.

The optional Big Brute Filter Shaker lets you clean your Big Brute Primary Filter quickly and cleanly without having to remove the power unit.

Just grab the handle on the front of the drum and give it a good shake.

Within seconds, your filter will be clean again, returning your suction power to its full level.

Note: Drums with the Filter Shaker option are not compatible with the Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot drum option, or any the accessories that work with the Easy Empty Lift-Out Spigot such as Disposable Waste Bags and the Easy Empty Lift-Out Bag.

Big Brute Dust Extraction Kit

If you’ve got hand tools, or a process that generates a lot of dust, remove it at source using your Big Brute and the optional Dust Extraction Drum Option.

Big Brutes with the Dust Extraction Kit drum option have an additional 127mm-diameter inlet spigot mounted on the side of the drum. It also includes 2 bungs to seal off either the small or large entry spigot when not in use.

The Dust Extraction Kit drum option allows you to connect a wide-diameter hose (sold separately) to the large spigot. This provides high-volume, low air-speed extraction which is ideal for removing dust from the air at source.

It’s ideal for short sanding or rubbing-down jobs, or stone cutting.

When you need to resume normal cleaning, seal off the large spigot and use the low-volume, high air-speed suction the Big Brute provides for general cleaning up afterwards.

While the Big Brute Dust Extraction Kit ideal for short activities, we don’t recommend your Big Brute is used for continuous dust extraction.
