What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Haven't used yet but fits well so far. Excelente, se acopla muy bien a la manguera de la aspiradora.
An outstanding addition to my wood working tools to aid in collecting saw dust from router and other sawing operations. Mounted right up to my homemade router fence. Great lightweight hose port for my router table fence.
This works as it should after a slight modification. To make the modification, use a heatgun to heat the port until to becomes flexible. Once installed it works awesome.
Y fitting has a groove cut in about 1/16 around which gives an extra 1/8. A lot of reviewers complain that the hole isn't 2. Inches. Stick the hose into the bristle end of the attachment.
Cons
The specs say just 2 1/2. The picture on this posting is deceiving. All of my dust collection equipment is 21/2 od. I wish the specs would have said the measurement was id rather than od.

A couple minutes with the heat gun to soften the rubber allowed me to slip it right on the 2.

Allow it to cool before removing from the mold.
Competitiveness
I purchased this for use in a homemade router table fence with my shopvac connected for dust collection.
To make the modification, use a heatgun to heat the port until to becomes flexible.
I used a heatgun and a simple mold to chang the port to be 2-1/2 o.

A hair dryer or boiling water would probably work too

It looks like the base and the dust collection port is at 90 degrees and the backside is 45 but in reality it is the opposite
