Flex hose 4 inch?

[Mike Davis]

Where can I get some of that flexible vacuum hose like kinda cheap? I think I need about 8 feet or so, could be 4 inch or even 3 inch.

Somebody has some 4 inch PVC pipe for me but it maybe a while before I can get it.

Harbor Freight has a DC accessories kit that includes two 10' stretches of hose, a bunch of hose clamps, and various other bits for around $25 IIRC. though I may have bought that kit at Lowe's, too.

:no:Mike, if you find it "kinda cheap" please let me know..The stuff is ridiclously priced most places.

That's a good deal. IIRC the last time I got 4" flex hose at Klingspor it was around $30 of a 10' section

End of March I bought hose from Hartville Tool :

4" x 10' = 19.99
2" x 10' = 16.99

Clothes dryer hose may be the answer.

Would there be enough interest to get up an order to one of the manufacturers?
Anybody got some idea what that might involve? Minimum order, cost, shipping, savings over retail 10 foot sections? I see some places have 50 foot rolls.


Vacu-Flex seems to be a major product. 25 foot sections

Mike-------here is a link to a supplier on ebay:

I have not done any business with them but their 50' roll of 4" is pretty reasonable. Maybe a group purchase is in order? I really do not need any at this time.

I'd take 30' if you get a good price.

Mike,
I've got a 10' section of 4" flex hose I got at Klingspor. It is still in the box. I will be glad to give it to you at No Charge:eusa_naug if you can wait until the picnic and I will bring it. If not PM me and we will try something different. Terry:eusa_clap

 

[Mike Davis]

Thanks Terry,

Nick is a lot closer and I'm not planning on the picnic.

Appreciate the offer!

Raleigh Durham Rubber and Gasket stocks several sizes of flex hose. There is a place over in GSO that sells rubber and gasket products, that probably will also have flex hose.

Would that be Southern Rubber? Used to be on Patterson Ave or may still be?
