Hi Guys

I would like to use my new CT26 Dust Extractor with my 4"/100mm Cyclone.  The inlet is 100mm.  Does anyone know of adapters to step down from 4" to the 27mm Festool hose?  Or a better way to do this?

Many thanks

i wouldnt go from 27mm - 100mm. 50mm -100 would be better but still not perfect. if the  out let pipe was 36 i dont think there would be a big problem with the overall size of the cyclone. might make it better.

go to your local plumbing shop and see what you can find. iv used black down pipe fittings for things liks this. the end of the hose cuff fits into a down pipe joiner

What you are really looking for is a 4 inch to 2-1/2 inch hose reducer.  Something like this one
