What's up boys and gentlemen ?  [tongue] 

So I know this question has popped up a few times here on the FOG.  I have received a few questions via the FOG and Youtube on how to connect two 27mm hoses together. 

So why not make a video, right?    [wink]



If you don't want to watch the video but want to know which 27mm anti-static fitting you need:
You'll need one 27mm anti-static hose, you pick the length you want, 3.5m or 5m.  3.5m part number 452 878   
5m part number  452 880
One Hose Sleeve-Rotating Connector for 27mm anti-static hose part number  452 892
One anti-static connector sleeve part number 493 047
Tools needed:
One small flat head screwdriver.

Those are the parts and tools needed,  but if you don't watch the video you'll never know how to connect two hoses together.  [tongue]
It's an ancient Chinese secret that I'm sharing with you.  [wink]

Take care guys !

BTW, you'll also need $44 USD for the parts, not including the second hose, throw in another $123 for that.

I was told there would be no math ........

In fact, I'm almost certain the end user agreement clearly stated the only numbers I needed to be familiar with when dealing with Festool, were the three security code numbers on the back of my credit card, which I have memorized.
 
If you're going to make a longer hose, the first hose should really be a 36mm for better air flow. The high velocity inside the 27mm hose significantly drops the static pressure at the far end of such a long run.
