Vacuum Adapter for Dewalt Sanders to Festool hose - Superior Dust Collection - Galactic Gadgets (Festool 27mm - Black)

I have purchased several of these. They fit my various DeWalt tools like a charm and make it easy to use standard 2.5" shop vac connections. I have even found use for these on some non DeWalt tools and connections. I hate the fact that dust collection is such a PITA as everyone wants to use slightly different sizes of hoses, connectors, etc. This made that miserable process a lot easier for many of my tools.

This adapter was a perfect fit for my Vacmaster VBV1210 and my new Dewalt DWE6423 5 in. Variable Speed Random Orbit Sander. It makes a tight connection on both ends. Once connected, the amount of dust from sanding is greatly reduced! This is totally worth it to keep dust down and simplify cleanup.

Works great and collected a bunch of dust before I emptied it

I ordered this adapter, and it fits perfectly for my Dewalt tools and my shop vac. I liked it so much that I ordered a second one a day later. When the second one arrived, it was misshapen and out of tolerance. It wouldn't fit either of my tools or my shop vac. The seller is sending a replacement right away. Stay tuned for my update.Well, the second replacement arrived. It, too, was deformed and slightly out of tolerance. It was better than the second one, but it still didn't fit either of my tools or vacuum. I'm not ordering a fourth one. The seller was very diligent about responding to my concerns.

Fits perfectly. Does what it is advertised to do.

The adapter fits onto the tool nicely, but the Festool hose end does not. It is pretty lose and can pop off the adapter easily so you have to continually keep pressure at the connection point or it comes out. The instructions say to twist it and you can feel where it does engage, but, because the fit is so lose it doesn't take much for the hose end to pop off. And, it is too expensive for that poor of a fit.

Adaptor easily connects sander and Festool vacuum hose.

Great sander. Purchased an adapter so it connects to my shop vac hose for dust free sanding. I notice less hand fatigue than with my prior sander.
