Fein Vacuum to Festool Sander

[chesterdad]

Can anyone suggest the model # of the Fein accessory that allows me to connect a Fein Vacuum to my ETS150 Sander?  Bob M. suggested that they have a part that works, but I couldn't find it on their site.  I have the Festool CT22 vacuum also, but would like to use the Fein interchangably.

Thanks

I can't help ya on the Fein attachment... you might find the large Fein hose a little bulky compared to the Festool hose...  And the Fein which works great with the large sanders is over kill for the small sanders 'cause ya can't dial it down...

What I'd suggest... is use the Festool hose 'cause it fits the Fein vacuum perfectly.  So either use your CT's green hose or buy a grey hose (I use the grey one all the time on my Fein).    In either case the Fein will not be antistatic like the Festool vacuums.

I have found that the deluxe solution is as Jim said -- use a Festool hose.  Since you dont get antistatic with the Fein, use the non-antistatic hose -- much cheaper.  Fits the Fein beautifully (I have the TII and TIII) -- no adapters, no duct tape, etc.

It's called a step adapter, P/N 921072K13 - costs ~$4.

I sent a message to Fein customer service, and they passed along the info, and said they would send me an adapter - FOR FREE!  Now that is GREAT customer service.  Just waiting now for Festool to send me that Free systainer to store my other portable power tools .
