Festool/Fein compatible?

[charley1968]

Hi, folks
I do have a somewhat strange question for a Festool-forum:
Are the Festool dust extraction hoses compatible  with the Dustex 25 dust extractor from Fein?
Thanx in advance for answering!

I am not sure what the dustex 25 is but I can fit my festool vac hose that's 27mm into my fein multimaster.

Thank you for your answer and the hint! I'm talking vac-side not machine-side.

Charley968, as a former Dustex 40 owner, I can assure you the Festool hoses fit like a glove in the Dustex vaccuums.
The Fein Dustex vacs are excellent vacs by the way, every bit as good as the Festool ones.

Thanx Jonathan, you confirmed what i was hoping for!
No , i can't say anything bad about the Fein. The Festools look cooler, but then they are more prone to tipping over ,i guess.
Being an amateur, loading my vac with systainers isn't a necessity.
Thanks again ,folks !
