ROBERT D

BEST ANSWER: When installing a flexible hose like this on a machine outlet outlet or a dust fitting it is helpful to first put the end of the hose in a bucket of hot water to make it pliable. Some folks will also use a drop or two of dish soap on the outlet or fitting to help make it slippery so the hose can be worked on to it easier. Then turning/rotating the hose as you work it on can also help.

I run a copper wire through the PVC pipe and flexible tubing, exiting and entering with a small hole in the PVC or tubing to go around each blast gate. I connect every piece of stationary equipment to the dust collector to avoid the build up of static electricity from the friction produced by the dust particles racing through the pipe or tube.

Yes it can be cut. It does have a metal wire that will need to be cut with a larger wire cuter or bolt cutter. But it's totally customizable.

It's metal coil with plastics & more rigid. Dryer hose is usually made of non flammable materials also, not plastic. If your question is, could you use dryer hose as a replacement. I would not. The dryer hose would collapse under the pressure.

not really. It is a think clear vinyl with a stiff heavy gaugewire spiral to prevent it from collapsing under vacuum. Dryer hose is under very low pressure, thin wall & light gauge wire or plastic spiral.

It's what I needed
I'm using as a replacement for the vacuum hose on my Earthquake shredder. Thick walls seem like they'll last longer than the original hose. Tight, so good for no-leak fit but a little challenging for mounting to the fitting. I don't seem to be getting full extension, although in my application only one end of the hose is anchored.

Very flexible, easy to cut to get the right length. Does what it's supposed to. I like that you can install a longer length and it tends to stay somewhat coiled up and then you can move the machine and somewhat stretch it.

PERFECT Fresh-Air Intake Hoses
I purchased these for a "not-so-typical" use--fresh-air intake hoses for a reverse trike I'm building. This is PERFECT!!
The best part is the strength of the wire coil. I did leave it completely round where the hoses are mounted in the roof under the vent; however I did need to squeeze them to an oval shape to match the inlet of the engine air-box.
As a DIYer, gotta think outside the box...

I found this to be a good product. A little hard to get on the Rockler aluminum blast gates, but I was able to get them on. I would recommend using the wire clamp versus the bridged thumbscrew clamps if the stub is short like that on the blast gates. Most equipment connections seem to have stubs that are twice as long. I exposed a bit of the wire on the blast end and attached to my ground system. I have not experienced any static.

Sturdy and very flexible
These hoses a perfect for dust collection. I like being able to see through the hose. The material is very durable and transparent even though the hose wall seem quite thick.

The best I've got
Tough enough to handle the chunks that come off a router and flexible enough to make a virtual zero radius bend. It is perfect for an interchangeable port hookup.

Suction where you need it.
I use this on my dust collector. I had the dust collector but no hose. This one looked good. I couldn't be happier. It stretches out long enough to use on a variety of machines. The diameter is large enough to suck up a lot of chips and saw dust without clogging.

4" clear flexible hose
The 4" flexible hose works as designed, easy to connect, flexible when I need to move my dust collector when connected to one of my tools. Recommend the 4" hose for anyone that needs flexibility with their dust collection system.

This is a good one!
Works really well. The extension and flexibility of the hose provides for a variety of uses. The hose is somewhat bulky but that is a minor consideration.

Better than expected!
I thought it would be handy to quickly locate a clog--especially from the planer. Guess what: not a clog since installing the flex hose..

Good Product
-I laid the 10' product the floor and it was 8 ft without any stretching. So yes, it would be 10' if stretched. -The stretch factor allows you to move a machine a bit when needed. -The overall quality seems very good. I can see it might break down if someone was kicking or dropping things on runs that are on the floor. Unless the hose starts cracking at connection points for some reason, it's 5 stars. -Best dust collection decision I've made to date is to use regular 3" PVC (not drain pipe or thin wall) for solid runs overhead and along walls. Then I use 2' lengths of flexible hose to connect machines to the PVC runs. The smoothness of the PVC moves dust beautifully, and it also minimizes electrostatic charge in the system. The inside diameter of the hose is slightly bigger than the outside diameter of 3" PVC, so the offset clamp works perfectly.

I have a couple 4" hoses...
I have a couple 4" hoses and this is by far the best and most flexible. I would buy it again which is the best you can say about any product.
