4 out of 5 stars Perfect for the dewalt table saw   September 19, 2004
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

Inially I was upset with this, it didn't fit. Well, my mistake, I didn't see the OD part. Anyway, I found the perfect spot. It fits the 2 1/2 inch port for the Dewalt table saw perfectly. I have now replaced the elbow fitting that came with the saw that for some reason is set to point at the saw leg, making it useless. Now my saw is easy to connect to my 4 inch collection system.


5 out of 5 stars Fits great!   April 13, 2004

The description by Robert Feeser (one of the top 500 reviewers in Amazon) explains 'This adapter is great for mating the popular 2 1/2" vacuum hose size to your 4" hoses. This 4" is a male end that will fit well into your 4" hose acting as a female, and the 2 1/2" end is a female that will receive your 2 1/2" hose as a male. :-) I don't know why that is so funny, but it strikes me that way. That is the best description I can give it. These Jet adapters fit perfectly'.

The adapter I received has a flat interface, not the funnel style shown. That makes a difference if using the piece with the airflow going from 4" to 2 1/2" due to increased turbulence.

If you're planning to use this downstream from large to small diameter then I suggest you find one that is indeed funnel-shaped.

I bought this to connect my 4" Jet hose to the 2 1/2 port on my bandsaw and table saw. All the current research is to keep the dust collector draw (I have the Jet 1100) at 4" (6" on a planer) until right before the machine (actually to rebuild any machine to accept a 4"). The ad does say it's 2 1/2 OD and silly me, I didn't bother measuring the 2 1/2 at the tool end. Guess what? They're both 2 1/2 OD so they do NOT fit together. In my opinion, this is a worthless adapter - as it doesn't advertise as a hose to hose connector, and hooking a 2 1/2 shop vac to a 4" opening at the tool is like trying to suck dust out of a garbage can with a straw - the physics are wrong - this should be only used for reducing a 4" hose to 2 1/2" at the tool, but again it's the wrong diameter. A proper adapter should be either 2 1/4 OD or 2 1/2 ID to fit over the tool's port. Does anyone know where to find such an animal? I finally found a rubber plumbing connector (at Home Depot) that joined the two 2 1/2 OD fittings together. This works but we should've have to do this for a peice of plastic they charge over $5 for. Please do not hook a shop vac to a jointer and expect to remove the 1 to 5 micron diameter dust particles that can cause COPD (lung disease), you'll only get the chips, sort of.


1 out of 5 stars Recommended but doesn't fit Woodstock Dust Collector   December 31, 2003
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I ordered this because it was recommended by Amazon as an adaptor to smaller hose size, but in fact it does not fit. The diameter of the Woodstock Dust Collector is 4"; the adaptor is 3-7/8" actual, so it won't slide into or over the housing. Now I have to find yet another tube to connect the two parts. Dumb solution!!
