Cen-Tec Systems 94709 Quick Click 16 Ft. Hose for Home and Shop Vacuums with Expanded Multi-Brand Power Tool Adapter Set for Dust Collection

I wanted a direct way to hook up my Makita orbital sander to my shop vac, and this hose with attachments works great! It comes with several accessories and thankfully one of them sticks onto the dust port of my sander fairly well. It took me a bit to figure out how I could attach the other end to my shop vac (the included attachment is TOO SMALL for the 2.5” opening on my vac), but I found that if I reversed the brush tool on my vac I could stick this hose with attachment into the brush. There is also an attachment that fits my belt sander. The hose is long, durable and pretty flexible, so it’s easy to move around and I can hold it in one hand while sanding with the other if needed. The quick connect coupling is very handy and allows me to unclip so I can use the hose for general clean up. So far it’s been a dream — using pads from 60 to 220 grit are essentially dust free sanding.

Very flexible, yet sturdy hose. Good attachments. Easy to cut hose down and make a greater number of shorter hoses, if desired.

I bought this hose and coupler system to help with dust when sanding my kitchen cabinets. It fits a Dewalt orbital sander perfectly and also fit perfectly with my Vac master Beast. If I had to guess, I imagine it was about 80% dust reduction from sanding, which is great for a DIYer. I also realized the extra sizes that they included will fit my regular vacuum hose attachments so now I'll be able to clean my car out with ease because the hose is flexible and easy to maneuver. Happy with the quality so far, it's new though so time will tell. Instructions were not included so I had to reference other review photos but figured it out quickly from there as I was originally trying to connect the wrong side of the hose to the vacuum. Only included this info to help save someone a couple minutes of trouble shooting. Highly recommend this based on functionality, compatibility, and ease of use once connected! Also the couplers click in and out effortlessly once you put them on correctly.

LONG STORY SHORT:Great dust collection solution for your average, at-home wood shop. I'm a hobbyist and DIYer, so a commercial dust collection system would be major overkill, but this system is wonderful for keeping the dust manageable in my garage/woodshop. The quick clip system and multiple adapters make it super easy to switch from one tool to the next, and keep the power tools runnin. I've got adapters on my DeWALT Miter saw, my battery powered Circular saw, and my batter powered Sander. Just take the vacuum hose from one, and clip it to the next.PROS:-Quick Clip system is awesome, so you're not shoving a rubber connector on to every tool, just unclip, and re-clip into the next one.-Hose connector is designed to allow the hose to spin freely, so the hose isn't twisting as you change angles (most noticeable on the sander)-Long 16 foot hose makes it easy to leave your shop vac relatively in one place, and be able to reach multiple tools.-Air relief valve, and adjustment collar on each adapter. Prevents getting stuck on a tool.-Super easy to connect and disconnect.CONS:-Not really a con, but I wish they had sets that had more adapters for a specific type of tool line. For example, maybe you could get a 16ft hose with a "Dewalt style" adapter set. or "Milwaukee style" adapter set that works with most of their tools. I have a couple adapters that I don't have uses for at the moment.CONCLUSION:Buy it. It's reasonably priced, and REALLY helps cut down on the dust you kick up while working in your garage wood shop. **Shop Vac not included.

I can't comprehend why I waited so long to upgrade my shop vac hose. This kit is just fantastic, worth every penny spent. The hose is longer and more flexible than the stock. It attaches easily to my Bosch miter saw and the sander. While I'm mostly using a dust collector, this hose takes care of smaller things and the floor. I can vacuum my garage/shop without moving the shop vac. This was truly a great improvement for me.

I purchased this shop vac extension hose to use with an orbital sander and finishing sander to refinish the walls in my dining room. When I received this I was very pleasantly surprised to find that both extension sizes I needed for attachment points on my sanders were included in the package. Other extensions are included as well that will also fit my bandsaw and table saw. Additionally, the extension pieces are designed with quick disconnects which makes their utility even better and the vacuum hose is nice and flexible which will be great for use with the sanders. I couldn't be more pleased with this outstanding product.

This is a great kit for the home owner /Diyer who dosen't have the room or need for a dedicated dust collection system. This is just what I was looking for to turn my shop vac into a dust collector. I have the Ridgid 11 gallon smart cart shop vac and this kit fits and works great with it. I just disconnect the factory ridgid shop vac hose and connect Cen-Tec hose. The fixed connector on one end of the hose fits into the shop vac port perfectly. The other end of the hose has a quick connect fitting that allows you to connect one of the different sized adapters. Now I can use my shop vac as a dust collector for my DeWalt 10" contractor table saw, my 12" miter saw and all my other hand tools that have a dust extraction port. The adaptors are made from a flexible rubber that stretch slightly to allow you to tightly fit them over the port on your tool. I like that the hose is a smaller diameter than my shop vac hose. The smaller diameter produces a very strong suction at the tool end. Plus the inside of the hose is smooth so your debris and dust will not get stuck in the hose like they do on a regular ribbed hose. I am glad I purchased this kit. It works great for my situation.
