 The two most popular sizes can now talk to one another June 17, 2003

This adapter is great for mating the popular 2 1/2" vacuum hose size to your 4" hoses. This 4" is a male end that will fit well into your 4" hose acting as a female, and the 2 1/2" end is a female that will receive your 2 1/2" hose as a male. :-) I don't know why that is so funny, but it strkes me that way. That is the best description I can give it. These Jet adapters fit perfectly.
To securely connect this adapter, I suggest that you buy the Jet wire connectors, instead of the standard band clamps. Since most dust collection hoses have a wire running through them, band clamps can not compress them. The Jet wire clamp goes around the wire in the hose, and it grips the material directly to the fitting. I tried using the band clamps, and after having to reattach them on a regular basis, I went to the Jet 4" wire clamps, that is why I am making such a big deal out of it. I have never had to retighten, or reinstall the hose on the adapter since. The wire clamps work perfectly. Highly recommended.
You may want the JW1000 May 14, 2008

There seems to be some confusion/frustration about this item so consider if this is the item you actually need. This product is not designed to go directly from a 2 1/2" dust port to a 4" hose. If that is what you want get the Jet JW1000 4-Inch to 2-1/4-Inch OD 2-Inch ID Reducer
2 1/2" dust ports typically have 1/8" thick plastic which creates an interior diameter (ID) of 2 1/4". I own the JW1000 adapter and it fits perfectly into/inside my 4" dust collection hose and into/inside my 2 1/2" port on an oscillating spindle sander. Delta has an equivalent adapter (Delta P/N 50-482) but I do not own it so I can't recommend for or against it.
Consider your application, measure the diameters, and then choose the adapter that fits your need.
Be advised.... December 5, 2002

Just be advised, this is not a standard 4-2.5 reducer, this thing will only work with a jet machine 4" coupling.
Make sure this is what you want January 2, 2008

This item works as advertised. I bought this when I was setting up my dust collection system and wanted to connect it to my spindle sander (which takes a shop-vac type of connector). I was not careful when I read the dimensions of this reducer. This will not work for such purpose. It will work if you want to connect your shop-vac to it and then connect the other end to the 4" connector of a machine. The problem is that a shop-vac is 2 1/4" and not 2 1/2. There is a different adaptor you could use for that.
Works nicely! March 28, 2007

I used this adapter to go from my tablesaw to shopvac which is...suprise,suprise... 4" to 2.5"! Only problem was the 4" side would not fit into the outlet of the saw. This is because both are tapered to accept a hose. So...I cut of piece of 4" dryer hose about 3" long, and strapped them up with the metal bands. Works for me with nominal dust.
