• The 1.25" hose is spiral wound which results in a highly flexible hose making it ideal for cleaning in tight spaces like under the front seat of a car or along the console.
• The hose has a very smooth interior which reduces to nil the chance of clogging and optimizes the performance of the vacuum important when using longer length hoses.
• The hose length allows the vacuum to be stationary and away from the work space. Should you own a wall hung vacuum the longer length allows you to clean without having to take the vacuum from the wall.
• 1.25 360 degree 5" inch swivel stub tube fits male into North American standard 1.25 inch accessory tools and attachments.
• The swivel feature reduces wrist and forearm strain and hose kinking.

Common Questions:

"I have a home shop vacuum with 1 7/8" tools will this hose fit my vacuum?"

Home shop vacuums describe hose diameters, 1.25"; 1 7/8"; 2.50" but typically have the same inlet diameter into the vacuum measuring approximately 2.25" across the diameter. You can confirm fit to your vacuum by putting a tape measurer to the diameter of your vacuum. If it measures approximately 2.25" across the diameter this hose will fit.

"I measured across the diameter and find it to measure approximately 2.63". Is there a way I can use this hose?"

Yes. Replacing the tank end standard to the with 412i3 will fit to your vacuum. An estimate 12% of home shop vacuums have a port size of 2.63". Brands like Craftsman and Rigid is where you will most likely encounter this size.

"Can I use this hose with the accessories that came with my vacuum?"

Depends. If your vacuum came with a 1.25" hose, yes. If your vacuum came with a larger diameter hose like 1 7/8", no. In this case, add cleaning accessories like the 91409 which will compliment this hose and preserve the accessories you have for use if you want a larger diameter hose for some tasks.

Recommendation:

Consider the space you will intend to service with your vacuum as you select the length of hose. The typical garage would call for a 30 foot hose if you want to keep the vacuum stationary or it is wall hung. If you have a three car or extended garage or wish to vacuum in the drive a 50 foot might be best. If you vacuum is on the floor and mobile the 20 foot is great as it lets you do the car or truck without having the vacuum bumping into the car as you reach across the back seat to get to the well on the other side. If you want to add accessories for the floor or car consider the 91409 which compliments these hoses.
