🌪️ BLACK POWERTEC 70198 Flexible Dust Collection Hose – 36-Inch Long, 2-1/2-Inch Review

I bought these thinking I could add 4" dust fittings to complete my system. But they don't fit 4 inch dust fittings at all. UPDATE: I've adjusted them, but putting them on requires a special technique (which may need to be explained in the box). Start with a fully folded hose and press the ends of the fitting against the end of the hose. You should then stretch the hose and pull each ring of wire onto the fitting one at a time (fingernails work well for this) by sliding each ring onto the…

I am very happy with this product. I bought it to install a semi-rigid exhaust system for my DW735 planer. I go straight from the exhaust to the trash can. It is ideal for this task. Just in case the description isn't clear, this hose isn't very flexible. Basically you bend it into the shape you want and then stay in that position. Definitely recommend. *** My evaluation criteria *** Quality of workmanship (36.0%) - 5.0 stars. Efficiency (54.0%) - 5.0 stars. Support (0.0%) - n/a…

Looks like a regular whistle and doesn't stretch very much. But it retains its orientation to a greater extent than standard dust hoses. I use this + Rockler 51387 DUST HOSE MOUNTING BRACKET + DCT 4" Plastic Tube Quick Connect Adapter to connect this to my dust collection system with the Rockler Quick Change 4" hose attached to add dust collection to my drill press. He has to work. connects well. Let's see if the ribbed material of the tube can withstand good suction. As always, you have to…

I bought this to use for picking up sawdust/shavings on stationary equipment like my drill. While it does hold its shape to a degree, it has enough movement that it doesn't stay exactly where I want it. It is best when it can rest on something or be attached to or carried by a machine. He will not take a position outdoors. My dust collector is portable and I wanted something that wasn't connected to or supported by the hardware and didn't work well for my purpose. If you installed this on a…

In case anyone is wondering these are perfect for GT500/Supersnakes lower grille frames to get airflow to your brakes without spending $300 on a JLT cooling kit. These are literally the same ones that are obtained from their kits for literally a fraction of the cost. And many of you may have noticed that I pointed mine at my heat exchanger. I wanted better airflow to my heat exchanger than to the brakes because I don't track this car. They are very efficient and reduced my IAT2 temps by 7…

I ordered this hose to replace a hose that broke on my jet table saw. A hose is connected to the blade guard to draw dust out of the table saw. The old hose broke briefly because it was full of sawdust when the base cabinet was opened. I tried another spring hose but for some reason the hose broke in a different spot. I think my clamps (universal) bumped the hose and broke it. When I received this hose I noticed that it was very stiff but could be pulled and pushed like an accordion and more or
