    Default Looking for 120mm flexible dust collection hose

    The flexible connection to the saw unit on my MiniMax combination machine has perished completely with only shards of the plastic remaining.

    It is, unfortunately, 120mm diameter. 125mm will not fit through the hole in the internal bulkhead is the hole is 125mm in size. 100mm will not fit over the 120mm fittings. I guess that should be obvious but I tried anyway.

    I could try SCM but based on past experience if they have any, it will have a ridiculous markup on it.

    Anyone have any sources they would like to share?

    Minimax is made by SCM in Italy, so the hose is almost certainly a metric size.

    May I suggest that you get the yellow pages and ring every hose supplier in Brisbane to see if anyone can supply suitable 120mm flexible hose, as opposed to 125mm. If no, see if it is feasible and realistic to convert the machine to take 125mm hose.

    Unfortunately, I suspect that Minimax may have used a proprietary hose size so that you are forced to go to SCM - may even be linked to your warranty, if any remains.

    WWF member Lappa used flex supplier the supplier that supplied him with 160mm I suspect that supplier would have unusual sizes.
