As you can see from the attached photos the hose is extremely stiff even after several days in temperatures around 100F. Adapter for connection to the universal shop vacuum cleaner. The OD of the random orbital sander is 13/16" and the ID of this overly stiff hose is just under 3/4". The slip joint doesn't taper, so installing this thing is an extremely painful experience. I have several Makita sanders and this one doesn't even match the random orbit sander it was designed for. You can make it fit if you are an Olympic wrestler. This leaves an end that will, or should, attach to your shop vacuum; I bought several adapters and ended up having to go through three adapters just to connect a standard vacuum. All my power tools are Makita, I love Makita but this hose is practically useless. I would be willing to give 3-4 stars, even after all my adapters to plug it in, if it weren't so bulky and stiff that the grinder almost snapped out of my hands trying to plug it in
