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 bought a Kreg dust separator for my garage and needed a lightweight, flexible hose to connect it to my sander and saws. This hose came with a variety of attachments for different tools. It's nice and easy to connect and disconnect, making it quick and effortless to switch between different tools.

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 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.

Has become a solution in my workshop for better dust collection and easier switching of tools. Length is perfect to reach from one end of shop to other and fittings fit almost every tool I own. Have encountered some static electricity due to low humidity but other then that hose works perfectly! It also perfectly fits in dust deputy!

Wasn’t sure if it would work as advertised. Worked perfectly. Had right attachment and love the very flexible tube. No kinking

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.

I really want to love this product! This hose and attachments seem well made and sturdy, and the concept is great. But they are not nearly as universal as the description would have you believe. Currently I can only fit this product to 3 out of 6 tools I commonly use, and one of those connections required essentially jerry-rigging two attachments together to get them to fit both the tool and the hose. For the other three tools I’m currently SOL until I can acquire ADDITIONAL connectors to bridge the gap. So my rating currently stands at a 3/5. SECOND EDIT: I’ve actually bumped my rating back up to three stars after discovering that the stupid adapter compatibility problem is far reaching and not something that can be solved by one company just doing their best to help you with your dust collection. The range of attachments could still have more variability, but they do work well when they fit. EDITED… I am actually reducing my rating to two stars because there just keep being MORE ways this kit is not compatible with attachments or tools I need it to work with. I don’t want to keep having to buy MORE adapters to make these adapters function properly. Vacuum attachments were clearly designed by a particularly industrious demon.

I use this attached to our shop vac to caccum the carpeted basement steps. Plenty long enough and with the adapters I'm able to connect to our shop vac and put a brush attachment on. Sure beats trying to drag a vaccum up and down the steps.

excellent

Love this system! Have it hooked up to my dust collection and shop vac. Flexible and convenient! The connecting mechanisms are very well made and work perfectly.

As Described

It's a bit pricy but you get a lot for your money. I have it on a few tools now and still have some spare connections left for any future tool I want to add.

Purchased this kit to use for dust collection from a new random sander but found that the connectivity allows me to use it with various other dust producing tools. Appears well made and the available connectors suit a variety of tools which have proven difficult in the past to connect to dust collection because of the "weird" port sizes.
