Festool DC-D 36/27-AS Reducing Sleeve — 36 mm to 27 mm Hose Adapter

Product overview

The Festool DC-D 36/27-AS reducing sleeve is an anti-static tool end designed to connect or adapt hoses in a Festool dust-collection setup. It boasts a diameter reduction from 36 mm (or 32 mm in some applications) down to a 27 mm dust port on Festool tools. This creates a tighter, more consistent interface between hose and tool, helping to streamline your dust-management workflow.

Crafted to integrate with common D36 or D32 hoses, the sleeve is simple to attach—just insert the end into the hose for a secure fit. Once in place, it supports a stable air path, which can contribute to smoother suction and fewer interruptions during tasks that generate fine dust and debris.

Key benefits

• Hose connection and adaptation: enables you to bridge different hose sizes to Festool tools.
• Tool compatibility: designed to fit tools with a 27 mm dust port for a cohesive system.
• Diameter reduction: converts 36 mm (or 32 mm) hoses to 27 mm for a tighter seal.

Why this matters in real workflows

In everyday shop scenarios, a compact reducing sleeve can help you maintain a steady airflow, reduce hose slack, and keep the dust path clear as you switch between tasks. The anti-static design aims to minimize static buildup along the hose path, supporting a smoother suction flow and steadier tool handling during woodworking, sanding, or finishing tasks.

• Fits into existing Festool dust-collection workflows without major reconfiguration.
• Supports quick swaps between hoses and tools while maintaining a reliable connection.
• Works with common D36 or D32 hoses to extend the reach of 27 mm ported tools.

Usage notes

For best results, ensure hose ends are clean and free of debris before insertion. Use the sleeve as part of a compatible Festool dust-collection setup to complement standard attachments in typical woodworking, finishing, and cabinetry tasks.
