Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Doesn't Work
These have a really, really basic problem - they fall off. Another reviewer mentions using duct tape to hold them on - which completely flies in the face of their purpose (to quickly move the hose from machine to machine). In my opinion, the plastic is too hard and they should have a taper. They have only a more-or-less round end and no taper. Result - they don't slide on most machines' dust outlets deeply enough, they don't fully seal, and they don't seat. I went back to using the raw hose end, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works well
I've used it using a 4" hose to connect it to different machines. For the most part it works well but for some machines it will just get disconnected (no matter how hard you press it). I've found that using duct tape or masking tape around the machine's port helps to keep this adaptor from falling.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not spectacular...
I found it a little difficult to get it to thread on my 4" pipe and it didn't seem like it would stay put without a spring clamp. Serves it's purpose though.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Turn me on ...
I already have one of these and needed a 2nd one. I like this style disconnect because no clamp is needed to hold on the hose.

The 4 inch hose just screws right on the end and hold very firm and air-tight. The other end, well, after all these years you would think that they would make a quick disconnect end that fits over the fitting a bit better, but it still fits enough to give an airtight seal. It is definitely OK for the designed usage of moving it from one machine to another.
