Locking Dust Port Connector

[RustE]

How do you attach a 35mm/36mm hose to the newer sanders and saws with the locking dust port connector?  I have one of the D27 hose connectors (http://www.festoolproducts.com/festool-500669-locking-dust-extraction-hose-port.html) but cannot find an equivalent for the larger hose size.

Don't think one exists.

Since the only thing with the requisite port is a sander right now , a 36mm hose would be rather cumbersome with it anyway.

My guess is when and if FT rollout the new port on things like domino, planers, and the saws; they'll make that size connector available.

I think the HK 55 EQ now comes with the locking dust port, but some pictures show it with a smooth dust port like the TS 55 REQ.

The Bosch tool adapter works on the Pro 5 Ltd sander and connects with the Fein Turbo II dust extractor.  I don't think the Bosch tool adapter will work on the HK 55 EQ with a locking dust port.

Simple. Just order a 27mm to 36mm Hose Adapter and replace one end with the D27 hose adapter you already have. Or, you might ask your dealer to make one up with the locking connector from the get go.

This is simpler, faster and cheaper than the made up hose adapter.  Takes up less space too.
