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)

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)

strong and well made. ive used these for years in my old shop. i just moved and re ordered a bunch for my new shop

I’ve been using this hose type for years and have had no issues. It adapts well to a lot of applications, especially if you the correct terminal connections. It stays flexible and I’ve never even come close to this hose clogging up, and I put a lot through it with some bigger projects.

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

The hose was of good construction. I have not had a chance to use it on my project but I’m sure it will do what I intended to do.

Great for planer, comes with clamp, well made, so far so good for duct collection

Plenty durable for my small shop, and the hose clamps are easy to tighten and loosen.

Solid flex hose. Worked great for my garage hobbyist DC system (Harbor Freight DC, 4" PVC, and flex). I was worried about it being flimsy, but it seems quite sturdy. When I went to Woodcraft to buy fittings for my DC system, the gentleman there tried to convince me to buy the black flex hose Woodcraft carries stating the Powertec would be inadequate. I have no reason to believe this, and I think he was just trying to sell me a product for 2x the price... Product seems like a good value, and (until I find out otherwise) well made.
