Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - i "modified" it to work with my dust ports.
i got 2 of these, 1 for my ryobi bt3100 saw, one for a ridgid spindle/belt sander..as others said, the 2" end is exact diameter oftoolport,

since i had 2" pvc piping on hand, i cut a 4"length, then sawed out a 1/4" kerf/slotlengthwise..that lets it flex enough to fit inside the toolport and this adapter,nice and TIGHT. can also use tape for a perfect Tight fit... i may also try fitting the pvc on the OUTside next,since this shrinks the I.D and decreases airflow,marginally i guess...but ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Watch what you order
I ordered the Jet band saw - since this was listed as the reducer that went with this band saw - I ordered it - it was only a couple of dollars - so no big deal - but it doesn't even come close to being the one for the band saw.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good as a connector for vacuum hose
This adapter works great for what it is designed for.It is only for changing 4 inch hose to 2 1/2 hose.Not designed to connect directly to a tool or shop vacuums.Usually the 2 1/2 inch hose will connect to the tool.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't trust the four inch size, get exact ID and OD size
As another reviewer said..... this is the exact same size as the tool port I have.... it is NOT four inches, but slightly less.If it were exactly four inches, it would have worked.... if it were funnel shaped, it would have worked, but it's the exact same size as my dust port.it will not fit over , or inside my dust port.The industry needs a better explanation for dust port sizes.... This has caused me agravation a few other times on shop vac and other tool dust port sizes.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 2 1/2" reducer
If I had known that this was included with the Dust Hood I would not have ordered it.It is now in excess of my requirements.
