I've pretty much switched over to the clear hose from McMaster Carr.

Although the remaining piece of hose, a short 160mm section that fits between the intake of the RL160 and the pipe has been holding up pretty well for a few years. The first one or two pieces disintegrated after a couple of years. Supposedly the culprit is some fire prevention additive required by CE regs. -----Original Message-----

I have been using the ClearVu cyclone system with spiral ducting and am very pleased with it. IMO, the only thing that SUCKS more is the premium Felder collection hose. Amazing how it all of a sudden just disintegrates and there is nothing left but the wire. This same thing happened to me some years ago and Felder stated that inferior material had been used and even replaced it; assuring me that the problem had been corrected. Apparently not the case!!! ------------------------------------ To Post a message, send it to: felder-woodworking@...
