Is there an adapter that will get me from the vac port on this sander to an 1 1/2" ID hose? I may be able to rig it for 1 1/4" ID

Thank you for your question. The VAC024 adapter will connect to the 1250DEVS sander with an 1 1/2 vacuum hose. Bosch VAC024 Vacuum Hose Adapter If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499)

The vacuum port on the sander is pretty small but the sander comes with a tube that you can put onto the vacuum port that makes it larger. I'm not with the unit at them moment but I'd estimate it at 1-1/2 inch. If that doesn't work, home depot sells an adaptor for Ridgid shop vacs that can fit multiple different sizes of ports and hoses.

It is 1". I have rigged an adapter for my shop vac using tubes from an old vacuum. It's tough to explain, but the point is, it is not a straight fit. However, the 557 is a great tool and well worth the effort.

Mine arrived today (1/5/16). Both ports on mine are 1-7/8" O.D. at opening and enlarge to about 2-1/8". My 2-1/4" Shop-Vac hose fits snugly over port but I will need to find the correct adapter to attach my 2-1/2" draw hose. The 2-1/2 in to 2-1/4 in Conversion Portby Rockler (sold here on Amazon) will not fit without modifications.

I'm not familiar with your sander. Mine is a Model 333 Random Orbit Sander with a 5" pad. This fit perfectly on that model when I had to replace the sanding pad because the original one deteriorated and fell apart. Sorry I can't help you.

It fits my shop vac and my ash vac but I don't know what size the hoses are. The adapter has two different ends. Hope this was of some help.

The standard central vac hose is 1 1/2". I think you would have to get a short adaptor to go from 1 1/2" to 1 3/8".

look for an adaptor from 1 1/4" too a 2" just remember a class one has a much less load range than an Item that takes a class 2

Jim I don't really know if Intex or the company I got my hose from has an adapter that will go from 1.5" to 2/5" but maybe you can get something in the plumbing section of Lowe's or Home Depot. The hose I got from the company leaked and they were good enough to get me one from Intex that was much better. Hope this helps a little

Hi danejr, I believe this Airbrush has a 1/4" hose. If not you should be able to find an adapter at your local hardware store.

Standard 4" hose fits the Jet's dust collection hood, and then a reducer (http://www.rockler.com/woodworking/Dust-Collection-Reducers) gets you down to the 2 1/4" diameter. I'm doubtful that the shop vac is sufficient to cope with the dust load when sanding, however.

Good Day Sir,I did some measurements for you and hope that these are what you were looking for to be able to determine if it will work for your sander.1-1/4" from screw hole to screw hole1-5/8" cross screws7/8" from center pad to screw hole

Mine came with an adapter, but I found it more trouble than it's worth. It's just a tube that allows you to connect the vacuum hose to it. With the vacuum hose connected, I found it awkward to control the sander. The hose always seemed to catch on the edge of the piece I was sanding and wouldn't allow me to move it in the direction I wanted until I freed the hose again. I much prefer the filtered dust catcher setup. Yeah, it fills up rather quickly, but it pulls off and cleans out easily.

There isn't a port for a shop vac. So the answer is no unless you can manage to rig something to the saw to accept a vac hose

Cannot say for sure whether it will fit your particular model, but it did fit my roughly 12-year old Ridgid vac without any adapters. I believe my vac has a standard size inlet as far as I know. Its the smaller gray end that you'll most likely have to get an adapter for to fit the tool that you want to connect to. Gray end is smaller than black end.

It does not connect to a shop vac hose at all. I am returning mine. You might be able to cobble an adaptor with duck tape but why bother as other sanders are connectable. The little bag is not adequate for heavy sanding and a shop vac in necessary when doing heavy sanding to keep the dust down.

When you remove the cloth output filter you will see that two different diameter hose connections can be made. One connection has an OD of about 1 inch and the other about 1.5 inches. I did not have a connection that fit either of them. But, I had some 1.25 inch OD/1.0 inch ID clear vinyl hose that made a perfect connection between my small Shop Vac hose and the sander. This vinyl hose can be purchased very cheaply at many hardware stores by the foot. It only took four inches of it to make a solid connection that has never come off during use. If I could I would insert a photo but see no way to do that. Hope this helps. It really is a great RO sander.

I also use my Rigid shop vac (WD1450) with this sander and have had no issues. I did notice that the vac tends to get rather hot after extended use since it isn't able to pull its normal airflow. It hasn't been a problem, just something to note.Getting the right sized hookup can be tricky. Although I found a combination of the smaller hose available in Rigid's auto detailing kit (Rigid VT2534) and a soft rubber step adapter (Fein 921072K13) worked wonderfully. You can probably get a similar hose without the full kit but I already had the detailing kit sitting around.
