IPC Eagle - DRY CANISTER VAC

[Bob D.]

I came across this brand on Woodcraft's site and don't recall ever hearing of their vacs.

The company has been around for a long time. Wondering if anyone has used their vacs
and what they think of them.

It appears from the photos they have some models that mount on top of your barrel.

Hi Bob D.

I cannot tell about their models in the US. But, many years ago they merged the FOMA brand into IPC. I have great experience with Foma, and I’ve noticed that they carry most of the top model Foma’s over to the IPC name. I’d jump on it if interested. They are more of an industrial brand, and their products jumps over Nilfisk and Kärcher’s so called prosumer models.

I’d not be afraid to buy one. Most accessories are “universal” but as Festool, hose dimensions vary - though most are like Nilfisk’s.

Thanks, the only place I have found them here is on Woodcraft's website and I believe they are a new item as I have not seen them at Woodcraft before.

Glad to hear they have a good track record. I still want to see one first-hand before making a purchase.

I sent an email to IPC asking about US distributors.

Good, do so.
Over here they carry an immense list of accessories, really comprehensive.
Since they are more or less wholesale, and covid cased them to more or less close their showroom for any “consumer/prosumer” I haven’t had the chance to check some of their hoses and attachments which I suspect may be compatible with Festool’s, I’d like to do so, cause the hose quality was really great in my experience. And they cost far less than Festool ones..
