⚡ At a Glance
- • Diameter Range: Outside diameter from 100mm to 75mm; inside diameter from 93mm to 68mm
- • Best for: Workshops needing to join a 100mm extractor hose to smaller machine outlets
- • Not ideal for: Setups using non-standard hose sizes or requiring a clampless seal
Conical reducer steps hose diameter between 100mm and 75mm. Compatible with Charnwood 100mm and 75mm flexible extractor hose and requires a 100mm hose clamp for fastening.
Secure connection when changing sizes - with 100mm-to-75mm conical connection
Outside diameters reduce from 100mm to 75mm while inside diameters measure 93mm to 68mm, creating a stepped, tapered fit for flexible hose. The shape accepts hose slides and holds form under clamp pressure.
A tight mechanical join results when the hose is pushed onto the appropriate end and fixed with a clamp, reducing movement at the joint and keeping the extraction run stable.
Keeps extraction layout consistent - with compatibility for 100mm and 75mm flexible hose
Designed to be fitted after a 100mm hose run from an extractor, then matched to a smaller machine outlet or hose. Compatibility notes specify use with the brand's 100mm and 75mm flexible extractor Hose.
Standardising on a 100mm extractor run and stepping down at the tool avoids makeshift adapters and helps maintain a predictable extraction layout in the workshop.
Quick to fit and secure - with standard 100mm hose clamp fastening
A 100mm hose clamp is recommended to fasten the flexible hose to the reducer, creating a mechanical restraint around the hose bead. No specialist tools are required beyond a clamp driver.
Fast attachment keeps downtime low when swapping tools or rearranging equipment, and uses a common clamp size found in most workshops.
