27 vs. 36 mm Hose for Sanding

[Bob MN]

How many of you use a 36 mm hose for sanding? I have an ETS 150 and RO 90.

I have a 36 and am wondering if I should use it with an adapter.

OR

Return it for a 27 mm hose.

Bob,

You will need an adapter, the sanders don't accept the 36 mm hose.

We sell whip ends, which are a short length of 27mm hose that connect to the end of your 36mm hose.

With this you can use your current hose. 

It's not on our website, but give us a call or an email.  They are selling for $50

A 36mm hose is overkill and un necessary for the sanders and several of the other tools.  The 36 does improve dust collection on others.  You can get the adaptors or get "whips" from several dealers.

I should note, Peter is correct.  A 36 is overkill for only sanding.  Be sure to turn your vac down.

It sounds like the OP already has a 36 and no 27.  I am trying to avoid purchasing more than needed.
