POWERTEC 4" x 20' Dust Collection Hose, 4 Inch Dust Collector Hose for Table Saw, Band Saw, Planer, Jointer, Woodworking and Wood Shop Dust Collection System (70143)

I recently bought an off brand since I wanted a 70ft length. I had purchased Powertec for all my other runs. Once the other brand 70ft arrived and had it stretched to length, it was pretty easy to feel the quality difference. Powertec feels like a heavy duty version that will stand the test of time. Now to return the other brand and look at splicing some Powertec hoses. Photo - off brand on top. Powertec on bottom

Perfect fit for my dust collector to all my tools such as planer and joiner. Has plenty of flex, but is also rigid enough to hold itself out of the way when positioned correctly. Also doesn’t completely collapse under a lot of pressure (when it gets clogged)

Seems to be good quality hose. Flexible enough without being too flimsy.

I ordered this hose to replace a hose that had torn inside my Jet table saw. The hose hooks up to the blade shroud to pull dust out of the table saw. The old hose was torn for awhile because when I opened the base cabinet it was full of sawdust. I tried another coil spring hose but for some reason the hose tore in another place. I think my hose clamps (universal types) poked the hose and tore it. After receiving this hose I noticed it was very stiff, but it was like an accordion and could be pulled and pushed to greater or lesser lengths. I tested the hose on my saw, which has connections for a 4 inch hose, and it went on very well. Then I tried to get my old 4 inch hose connectors onto the hose and they didn’t fit. The accordion style of the hose makes the body of the hose larger than the coil type I was using. I had to buy larger hose clamps. It is installed now and the dust collector works very well. It seems to pull more dust away from the blade area than before, but I think the old hose had been torn for a long time – maybe since I bought the saw. I have been consistently cleaning sawdust out of the cabinet area and probably never looked for a tear. Or if I did look I didn’t see it in the dusk like light conditions inside the saw cabinet. The hose’s adjustable length was a lifesaver. I tried it with the saw full up and down, and all the way over to 45 degrees and no problems. It should work well. Be aware that the hose isn’t soft and flexible like many of the see through coil and plastic types. It is somewhat stiff, although it still bends because of the accordion construction. AD2

Best vacuum system hose I have ever used.... very flexible yet does not collapse on blockage.

WORKS AS IT SHOULD. DOES NOT COMPRESS

Great hose. It is flexible. I purchased a different hose from a popular woodworking retail store, and it is stiffer than I like.

I like that it's clear so I can see if any debris is built up inside.
