    Where to find 6" x 4" machine adapter

    I am looking for a quick connect that will connect to my machines 4" port then increases to a accept 6" hose. Is there such a thing out there?

    How do others take a 6" hose and convert it to a machines 4" port?

    Some machines it is very hard to increase the port size, and a reducer would be much easier.

    So that will fit directly on to my 4" port without any other modifications?

    Fernco fittings that you can buy or order from the box stores is what I used.

    Fernco fittings are expensive

    I like the splitters from ClearVue. I have some that simply split one 6" duct into two 4" ducts and some that have a blast gate for each 4" duct. This one now goes to two sanders.

    If you don't need the second 4" connection now you might later.

    Having 6" for the last 2-3 feet makes almost no difference in airflow. Adapt to 4" further back from the machine.
