New vac hose

[tjbier]

I bought this hose a few weeks ago and really like it. Fits the CT and my sanders great! The dust collection on my Makita slider went up too.
I can't believe how much more air the CT moves with just a little larger hose   [eek] I almost want to buy another one and cut it in 1/2 and use for the chop saws exclusively.
It's also more flexible and not as rigid as the 27mm hose the CT came with.
Great purchase.

There was a $50 gift card to Amazon for signing up for a credit card. So I got the hose and the Dwalt track clamps for $9.99! lol

* the end fittings are not the same as the pictures, they are the same as a standard Fessy hose.*

I tried to order one of these a couple of week ago when they were still listed as available.  A day or two ago Amazon contacted me saying this item is no longer available.  Bummer.

It was 26 bucks and change on Amazon, so that $87 on Ebay is crazy.

Acetools online has the 3 meter version for 65.00 and ereplacementparts has the 5 meter version for 80.30. Just make sure you order the one with the right ends.

Wow $85 for a non anit-static hose! I only wish now I had bought the remaining stock and put em up on evil bay.  [wink]

I think paid what Brice said like $27. Cheap

Ace and tool king have them $26-$27

We'll see.  Seems this item is usually drop shipped and not available any more, or at least not at the present time.

 

[mikeneron]

Says there are 4 available as of 5:30 PM Central Time.

I assume you're talking about Ebay, at $87 a pop they can keep all four.

I was able to get one of these hoses from another Amazon dealer, CPO, for $40.  Here are a few more comments on the hose.  First, the tool end is very much like a the Festool version.  As tjbier said it fits Festool D27 tool ports just as well as the Festool version.  Two things that aren't as nice as the Festool hoses iare the tool just threads on with no "locking" collar, so it is possible to could unthread in use.  I don't know how likely that is to be a problem since I don't have much use with the new hose yet.  The second thing is the vac end dosen't have a rotating collar and it is just jammed into the hose.  It does seem to be a tight fit so I'm not too worried about it coming loose.  One other thing worth mentioning is Festool hose ends fit this hose perfectly, well, at least the Festool D36 tool end I put on it does.

As of now these things are sold out again.  If you want one you better get on the email alert list and act fast when they do become available.

One thing I did find Brice is that the tool end of the hose works with the extentions of my general purpose kit but it does not fit nicely into the "top" (angled piece that the 12" extentions go in) really at all, I just have to put different ends on the extentions.

Not as nice as a Festool hose but to me worth the value.

I bought this hose some time ago for $26.00 on Amazon warehouse deals. I put a Festool 36mm tool end on it and use a chunk of it for my Kapex and Midi, works great.
