Quick connect ports for tools to dust extractor hose?

[natenator76]

hey all,

Wondering if there are quick connect options for attaching the dust extractor hose to various festool tools?

I feel like stiffness in the hose connector will cause issues with continually connecting and removing of the hose to tools.

Or am I being too paranoid for no reason?

Until this point I've only ever had a sander (connected to a shop vac) but treated myself this Xmas with a DF500, CT26, and TS75.

Thank you.

Yep, just worrying too much. It’s stiff at first, gets better, and eventually might get too loose. But that will take a looong time.

In addition, should you ever need to replace a hose end, they are readily available and under $35. Easy to swap out too.
