Adapter - 50mm Vacuum to 38 mm Inlet

A simple adapter to connect a 50mm (two inch) shopvac style vacuum cleaner to any tool with a 38mm (one and a half inch) tapered connector.   

Shown is a Makita Sliding Compound Mitre Saw.

Print upright, threaded side down - no supports are necessary.    I have used PLA for all my connector fittings and all have stood up well to the usual workshop use, if it's likely to get knocked about a bit think about using FLEX.

USER TIP:  While the tapered fit is great for normal use, I find a little plumber's PFTE (Teflon) tape over the male part of the joint allows really smooth connect and disconnections - tight friction fit with a twist release.

This is just one of a growing collection of vacuum hose fittings and accessories that can be found in my VACUUM AND SHOPVAC ACCESSORIES COLLECTION
