Correct application makes all the difference.
Always switch OFF and unplug the disc grinder before attaching any of the Recessing Kit components. Never use the Recess Disc without the Dust Collecting Guard. Inspect the dust collecting wheel guard thoroughly before use to ensure that it is not damaged, cracked and/or deformed. Be sure to use protective equipment such as protective goggles, dust mask, safety shoes and earplugs when using the grinder. Do not use the Recessing Kit for grinding stones or for any purpose other than mentioned. Never apply gasoline, benzene, thinner, alcohol or alike to the dust collecting wheel guard. The shroud setup is dust controlled, not dust free - PPE is still required and silica dust controls still apply.

We supply premium waterproofing products backed by expert advice, fast service and real-world experience.
The Puddle Flange Recess Combo bundles the tools and consumables needed to recess puddle flanges into bathroom and balcony substrates - typically including a diamond hole saw, depth-controlled cutter, and detailing membrane/sealant.
Recessing the puddle flange below the substrate surface ensures the waterproofing membrane lies flat over the flange edge with no high spot - critical for AS3740 compliance and reliable shower waterproofing.
The combo's purpose-built tooling reduces recess time to under a minute per flange compared to chisel-and-grinder methods. Mount the hole saw to your angle grinder, position over the flange, cut, lift out, install.
Designed for standard Australian puddle flange dimensions. The diamond hole saw cuts ceramic tile, porcelain, natural stone, and concrete - any substrate the puddle flange might sit in.
AS3740:2021 requires the waterproofing membrane to lie flat across penetrations without bridging gaps. Recessing the puddle flange is the standard professional approach to achieving this compliantly.
