| End A | Makita 24 mm tool cuff (15/16 in OD, 24 mm OD) |
|---|---|
| End B | Festool D27 antistatic hose (35 mm tip in OD, 7/8 in ID) |
| Fit type | male port into hose cuff |
| Reducer needed | none, direct friction fit |
Shop notes
The port measures about 24 mm and the hose about 23 mm, only 1 mm apart, so the port seats inside the hose as a friction fit. No reducer is needed for this pairing, so the Makita 24 mm tool cuff and the Festool D27 antistatic hose connect directly.
It is a push fit, not a lock. Seat it fully and check it has not crept loose after a few minutes of vibration before you trust it on fine dust.
