Customer Reviews:

Its pretty good with a few drawbacks... [Posted on 2006-07-12]
I bought this hose to use with a Jet dust collector in my one car garage wood shop. Though my shop is small and the collector is very portable, I decided that the best dust solution for me was to duct the collector down one wall of the shop with several gated outlets for various stationary tools and one gated outlet near the floor for mobile tools out in the center of the room.

This 10' Jet hose proved to be an essential component of this system. I used 4' lengths of galvanized metal duct everywhere that I could, but I still needed plenty of this flex hose to make the connections to my radial arm saw and miter saw (since the dust ports on these tools move while in use).

I have been very pleased with the rigidity and strength of this hose - in fact, my only beef is that it is almost too rigid. If you have a length of it that you use for mobile tools, it is very cumbersome since it does not easily roll up for storage.

I am happy to report that this hose fit perfectly on all of my 4" dust collection fittings (all of which were made by Jet also). In my opinion, the hose is well made even if its a bit too rigid, and the price is ok. I have also used the Woodstock International hose and find it to be cheaper and more flexible but not nearly as strong or crush resistant. Choose the one with the features that meet your needs.

An A+ product and a reasonable price. Be ready to warm up this hose to get it flexible and buy the grounding kit...plastic hose can really build up static electricity...

Flexible 4" hose [Posted on 2007-09-26]
The hose is still in the box, but it looked okay. Only time will tell if the quality is there.

junk.
a few reasons.
1, it creats way too much static ground it or else!!!
2, it is like a big slinkey it tries to shrink back to its 12" colapsed size when ever there is suction.
3 if you use it to make a bend then turn on the system it will pinch the bend almost closed thus reducing the flow way too much!!
4, the plastic covering is very cheap like a 4 mil drop cloth feel.
i have a 2hp 1650 cfm system in my shop and no matter what i hook it to it tries to shrink when i turn it on even with the"big gulp" or my 12"x 10" lathe hood..
i have several hoses different types and never had one this bad
its like a spring wound in a trashbag!!
seriously aviod this go the extra $1.00 to $3.00 and get a heavy duty hose you will not regret the extra cost as much as you will regret this junk!!

I could not get the hose to fit over any other manufacturer's 4" fittings. I had to split it and then tape it closed. I have a system going from 6" mains, mostly 5" drops; just a few 4" connections off a wye at the bandsaw and router table. Everything else worked well together except this hose.
