ETS 125 Dust Port & Festool 36 mm hose fitting

[semenza]

This is nothing short of outrageous. I bought am ETS125 sander and I would like to buy the hose that fits on it.  Why is that so complicated?  All these posts about adapters and people making inserts is absolutely ridiculous.  I'm tempted NOT to buy another Festool product until this question is answered in a simple way.  If there is no Festool hose that fits on the ETS125, be honest, and say so.

There is nothing outrageous or complicated about it at all.

All the Festool hoses that are D27 or D27/32 will fit the ETS125. No adapter needed.  The D27 or D27/32 hoses also fit  all  the Festool tools. The D27 or D27/32 hoses are also the hoses that are supplied with Festool vacuums.

The D36 hose that the OP posted about is a larger size hose and  can  be used with some Festool tools for improved DC. It is not what would be considered the standard hose size. So in order to use the D36 hose with some tools an adapter would be needed.

The D27 Hose is 27mm diameter for it's entire length. The D27/32 hose is 27mm diameter at the tool end and tapers to 32mm at the vac end. This is a newer hose and provides more airflow / suction while still maintaining the  standard  D27 tool end connection.

All of the hoses D27, D36, D50, D27/32 have the same size connecting fitting at the vac end. So they can all be connected directly to the Festool vacs.

The hose that is for the CT36AC is a special one designed for use with that vac and the Planex.

If you buy a D27 or D27/32 Hose it will fit the ETS125.
