RIDGID’s 1-7/8 in. Pro-Grade Locking Hose Kit extends up to 10 ft. for extra reach and is 4X more durable than standard RIDGID hoses. This hose is highly flexible while resisting collapsing. It fits all RIDGID 2-1/2 in. inlet configurations and includes 5 adapters for compatibility. With the new locking design, your hose locks onto both your vac and your wand or accessory, so nothing falls during use. Easily detach by releasing the locking tab or twisting off. The 2-1/2 in. diameter opening is the optimal size for tackling large messes with a RIDGID wet dry vac. Maximize your vac and get the most out of your cleaning tools with RIDGID’s 2-1/2 in. locking accessories.

Good enough. Wish it was a bit more flexible relative to the material plastics used.

This upgrade is so much better than the hose that comes with the vacuum itself.It is more flexible and the added length make it a perfect add on. The diameter is also slightly smaller so it creates a better vacuum.I’d definitely recommend this to anyone who is planning on getting a vacuum cleaner from Ridgid.

Excellent product uses for my vehicles and anything around the shop with the attachments and works very well plus I can connect another hose

This worked well to extend my DeWALT shop vac (1-7/8 in. x 7 ft. hose) another 10 feet. The Rigid hose is high quality and it swivels on each end. I did end up securing the two hoses with a 2” hose clamp.

I recently made a dust collection system for my enclosed trailer at job sites. I bought two of these and I am also running a 6.5 horse 16 gallon rigid vac with the rigid cyclone on a 5 gallon bucket. These hoses are amazing and allow me to hook 2 saws up at the same time and catch 75 percent of the dust thegt

I needed an extension and a coupler for my shop-vac. This kit has all the pieces you need to connect random hoses. So now I can walk around my garage with a vacuum hose attached to my sander and not have to worry about dragging the shop-vac around with me.

High quality hose, extra fittings are hard to remove after putting in, so make sure you pick the right one to begin with – that’s my only complaint – I didn’t think too hard about which one I needed when first hooking them up – luckily I guessed one that was OK.

I have purchased a few original rigid vacs and also their OEM hoses, and they have always been my pet peeve. They kink and aren’t well made. This hose is well made and does not kink or collapse, it’s by far superior to the one that comes with their vaccums. The only thing I could see to make it better is if it were a full 2″ or 2.25″ would be even better. Why they make this smaller than the original, I just don’t know. With that being said, it is still FAR SUPERIOR to the original and OEM Ridgid hose.Hope this helps,Al from AZ

Not happy because it don’t fit my vac I have the first ridgid vac red and gray fittings to small

Bought this hose to replace the one that came with my Ridgid shop bac. As reviewers had warned, the manufacturer shipped my vacuum with a cheap OEM hose that had to go in the trash bin. This one is of much better quality and is flexible enough to be useful. Since it’s new, I cannot comment on its longevity.
