Adapter — DeWalt Connector to 4" Hose
One printed part takes your DeWalt DWV9000 connector straight into a 4-inch dust collection hose — friction fit to the connector.
My daughter and her husband run a dust collection system in their wood shop, but no combination of off-the-shelf adapters would connect their DeWalt 12" compound miter saw to the 4-inch hose on their collector. They wanted the adapter to start from the DeWalt DWV9000 Universal Quick Multi-Function Connector, so the same fitting works on their other DeWalt tools. We measured the connector tail and the hose, designed this adapter in Fusion 360, and it has worked great ever since — so we're sharing it.

Both ends are tapered — the tapers do the work
The small side's inside diameter tapers from 50 mm to 48 mm to mate the 49 mm outside diameter of the DeWalt connector tail — push it on for a snug friction fit, pull it off when the job is done. The large side's outside diameter tapers from 99 mm to 101 mm, so a 4-inch hose with its hose clamp slides on easily and seats tight.
An external stop ring gives the hose a positive stop, and the internal surface is a smooth continuous curve to keep airflow efficient.
One part, two print profiles
| Print profile | Layer | Print time | Plates |
|---|---|---|---|
| ABS, Solid (as photographed — Bambu Lab ABS Navy Blue) | 0.24 mm | 3.7 h | 1 |
| PETG | 0.24 mm | 3.7 h | 1 |
Print times are for the designer profiles on MakerWorld; either profile prints on one plate in about 3.7 hours.
- Brims: the contact area on the build plate is small, so brims are on.
- Tree supports: used for the stop ring — they also help stabilize the print on the plate.
- Layer height: 0.24 mm for strength and a slightly faster print.
- Wall loops: 100, which makes the part effectively solid, so it handles the shop environment.
- Material: printed in Bambu Lab ABS (Navy Blue) with default filament settings; PETG profile included, and other materials should work fine.
Connect the saw, turn on your dust collector, and keep the sawdust where it belongs.
One printed part, no clamps to fight on the connector side. The download is free on MakerWorld — and a download helps support the shop.
