Description
Product Overview
The Woodstock D4226 4-to-2 inch reducer is engineered to bridge the gap between larger 4-inch vacuum or dust‑collector hoses and smaller 2-inch lines. Constructed from high‑impact black plastic, the reducer delivers a reliable, leak‑free connection that can withstand the rigors of daily shop use. Its compact dimensions—4 × 4 × 2 inches—and lightweight design (just 2.4 oz) make it easy to store and handle, while the hand‑powered slip‑on mechanism ensures a secure fit without the need for additional tools. This product is part of Woodstock International’s extensive line of hose accessories, offering consistency in quality and performance across a range of dust‑control applications.
Usage
Designed for both professional workshops and DIY home projects, the D4226 reducer excels in environments where flexible hose routing is essential. Whether you are setting up a shop‑floor vacuum system, retrofitting a dust collector, or creating a portable cleaning station, the reducer provides a seamless transition between hose diameters. Its hand‑powered installation means you can quickly attach it to existing hose runs without disassembling the entire system. The reducer is also compatible with a variety of accessories such as quick‑connect fittings, flexible hose extensions, and dust‑collection nozzles, making it a versatile component in any maintenance or construction workflow.

FAQ
Can the reducer be used with metal hoses?
Yes, the D4226 reducer can be paired with metal hoses as long as the hose outer diameter matches the 4‑inch and 2‑inch specifications. The plastic body provides a secure grip without damaging metal surfaces.
Is any additional hardware required for installation?
No additional hardware is needed. The reducer features a slip‑on design that fits snugly over the hose ends. For extra security, you may use a standard hose clamp, which is sold separately.
What temperature range can the reducer withstand?
The high‑impact plastic is rated for temperatures from -20 °C to 80 °C (-4 °F to 176 °F), making it suitable for most indoor workshop environments and typical dust‑collection applications.
How does the reducer prevent leaks?
The internal taper and precise machining create a tight seal when the hose is pushed onto the reducer. This design minimizes air loss and maintains suction efficiency throughout the system.
