Editorial Reviews:

Ideal for woodworkers with Shop-Vacs or the equivalent, the Jet 4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch Reducer allows you to step down from a larger size machine. The reducer connects 4-inch line to 2-1/2-inch dust ports. The step down increases air velocity where it is needed most. With an outer diameter of 2-1/2-by-4-inches, this reducer lets you adapt to many machines.


User Comments about the Jet JW1044 4-to-2-1/2-Inch Reducer

So instead of moaning and groaning about it, I simply cut a piece of sheet metal 14 3/16" x 2 3/4" and made a wide band clamp. Estimated cost, 15 cents, 27 cents counting nuts and bolts. Bending the sheet metal to a nice round shape is easily done over a section of 3" PVC drain pipe. However, the small end fits my Shop Vac perfectly. I bought this to use with a Big Gulp Dust Hood.


Elapsed time, about 20 minutes. Turns out that the OD of the adapter and the Big Gulp were the same. Bend both ends 1" and 90 degrees for tabs. Just as rigid as a friction fit, too.JB Drill 2 ea 1/4" holes for clamp screws and install to couple the two sections together.



What can I say. Nice heavy plastic. It does the job it was intended for.



PAID FOR 2 DAY SHIP TOOK OVER 2 WEEKS ITS BULL SHOT AND IT DOES INT EVEN FIT THE TABLE SAW WHAT A RIP FORK AMAZON



i got 2 of these, 1 for my ryobi bt3100 saw, one for a ridgid spindle/belt sander. i may also try fitting the pvc on the OUTside next,since this shrinks the I.D and decreases airflow,marginally i guess.but it fits Extra-securely now,so it's kind of a bonus. as others said, the 2" end is exact diameter oftoolport, since i had 2" pvc piping on hand, i cut a 4"length, then sawed out a 1/4" kerf/slotlengthwise.that lets it flex enough to fit inside the toolport and this adapter,nice and TIGHT. can also use tape for a perfect Tight fit.



I ordered the Jet band saw - since this was listed as the reducer that went with this band saw - I ordered it - it was only a couple of dollars - so no big deal - but it doesn't even come close to being the one for the band saw.
