I must not have read the listing well enough. It does do the job, just not sure how long it will hold up to shop conditions. The large port is 2 1/4" in diameter, and does not fit my 2 1/2" diameter hose. I also didnt realize that the hose was so thin, but this does help in making it easier to use when attached to the sander.

I first connected this to my 2hp cyclonic dust collector. Better unwieldy that dust all over my shop and the work. I went back to duct-taping a 2" hose to the underside of my bosch sander handle which works fine, except that the hose is a little unwieldy. The small diameter, coupled with the length and deep-ridged construction causes this hose to produce so much friction that there is no vacuum to speak of and therefore NO DUST COLLECTION. There was barely any air movement at the 1" end of th hose. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PRODUCT. I then used my 6.5hp shop vac with similar results.

Product connects well as described. Sounded like a great product to hook up a small hose to my Bosch sanders. But when connected to my 6.5 HP ShopVac it creates such a LOUD high pitch it is just beyond any hope of using, even with highend ear protection. Just don't connect it to a ShopVac.Bosch should porvide a disclaimer NOT to be used on a ShopVac. Turn it on and even our Beagle inside of the house runs for the hills.

I did so and hooked up the second Vac001 to my Shop vac and had the same results. I purchase the Vac001 to use with my Bosch detail sander and orbital sander. Beware of this product. I hooked it up to my 6.5 HP shop vac and it screamed like a banshee. I called Bosch again and they admitted that it won't work with an more powerful Shop Vac. I called Bosch and said that some of them do this and I should return it.

This item is garbage. I figured i wouldn't read the reviews because it was a Bosch product and it was something simple like a hose and a few fittings. This product would be great if it didn't make a heinous squeal when it was being used. What could go wrong. DO NOT BUY. Even with ear plugs the noise makes me cringe.
