    Are you looking for cheaper, better filtering than the 5 micron bag, etc.?

    You can use any plastic bag whose mouth is large enough to fit over the end of the canister. The hose clamp gathers the extra material and squishes it against the canister. Heavy-duty garbage bags or trashcan liners are an option, and are way less expensive than Rockler's bags. Trash bags are usually black, but you can find them clear. You can even find garbage bags with rip-stop reinforcement.

    Trash compactor bags are stronger, I get several uses from each.

    Look for 42 gallon, 3mil "Contractor" trash bags. I used them for years as the bottom bag for a 2hp dust collector. Never had one rip or burst.
