Customer Reviews
A must have item
No idea what the reviewer below is trying to say. If you are serious about collecting dust while sanding, this is a must have item. I've been using it for 4 years with 3725DEVS sander and all I can say is it works.
What an improvement
The new version of this adapter is made of much stronger plastic (the original was soft rubber). It also now has two latch type prongs that hold it securely to my sander. Bosch offers four additional adapters to enable you to connect a variety of shop vac hoses to this adapter:
BOSCH 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" hose-to 35 mm port Adapter VAC002
BOSCH 35mm hose-to-1-1/4" port Adapter VAC003
BOSCH 35mm hose to-2-1/4" port Adapter VAC004
Cheaply made, cheaply priced, works ok.
I bought this adapter for my Bosch 3107 sander recently. It makes a nice snug connection that locks in place, I just question how long the plastic clips will survive before breaking off. I'm really glad I bought it because now I capture almost all the dust my agressive little random orbit sander can generate. I sanded my deck and there was no noticable dust settling on nearby cars or driveway. Unfortunately, the port on the adapter is a very oddball size, but I stubbornly refused to buy the overpriced, single-purpose vac hose from Bosch. A 1" OD adapter would fit inside the port. I opted for a pliable mini step adapter (#815898) from Woodcraft for $4. They don't have this item on their website; I would call, try mail order catalog, or visit one of their stores. By cutting off most of the smallest step from the step adapter and slicing off the little nubbies on the outside of the RS006 port, I achieved a real snug fit. The big end of my step adapter was a tad over 1.5" but it made a nice snug fit in the gray end of my Mr Nozzle vac hose. This configuration did not pull loose once on my deck job.
