Not terribly great
What’s the point. I can get spare wire and wire nuts to ground my system far cheaper than this. i find the braided copper hard to deal with and am far happier using spare romex I have lying around the shop. Do yourself a favor and make one of these yourself.

Unnecessary expense and waste of time
Read what is said at the Fine Woodworking site (Taunton Press - a very knowledgeable and reliable information Woodworking publisher) about the necessity of grounding a 4 inch or less PVC conduit for data collection. Completion - unnecessary. You save time and money and instead they spend woodworking. You can also do a Google search and find other articles exposing these repeated thoughtlessly myth of wood dust explosions in wood workers garages. (I am only referring to home-based, 4 "or smaller PVC piping systems )

This safety accessory is essential to any complete dust collection assortment. What’s in the Box 50 feet of copper wire, 8 wire nuts, 2 grounding screws, and 2 wire connectors.
