Festool Replacement Hose 27mm x 3.5m
The Festool Replacement Hose 27mm x 3.5m is positioned as the premium OEM option for replacement and extension hose sections, offering a precise fit and airflow optimized for Festool dust extractors and hand tools. Compared with larger-diameter aftermarket hoses on this list, its smaller 27mm bore and factory tolerances prioritize tool balance and suction consistency for finishing work, which usually commands a higher price but reduces leak-related performance losses on sensitive sanding and routing tasks.
