Key Features
Better Suction FlowThe conical 27 mm to 32 mm hose shape reduces friction inside the hose, which helps move more air and improves dust extraction at the tool. Smooth, Snag-Resistant HandlingThe smooth outer skin helps the hose slide over edges and corners instead of hanging up, so you spend less time stopping to free the hose. Secure Festool ConnectionThis Festool suction hose uses a CLEANTEC connecting sleeve with bayonet fitting, giving you a more reliable connection to compatible tools and dust extractors.
Overview
The Festool 577158 Antistatic Smooth Suction Hose 27/32mm x 11-ft-6-in is a dust extraction hose built for connecting compatible Festool tools and extractors while improving airflow, handling, and jobsite cleanliness. This is a suction hose designed for dust extraction and debris collection during sanding, cutting, and general cleanup work. Model number 577158. If you already work in the Festool dust extraction system, this hose matters because it solves two common problems fast: hoses that snag constantly and hoses that choke down airflow.
What makes this hose different is the conical design. It steps from 27 mm to 32 mm, which helps reduce internal resistance and increase airflow through the hose. In plain terms, that means stronger dust collection at the tool and less buildup left behind on the work surface. On sanding and finish work, that can mean cleaner results and less rework. On cutting and general extraction, it helps keep debris moving instead of packing up inside the hose.
Festool also built this hose around everyday handling, not just raw specs. The outer skin is smooth and robust, so it is less likely to catch on corners, bench edges, sheet goods, or sawhorses while you move around. That sounds minor until you spend a full day dragging a vac hose behind a sander or saw. A hose that slides instead of grabbing keeps your attention on the cut, the surface, or the layout line instead of the hose fighting you every few feet.
Inside that smooth shell, the hose stays highly flexible, which helps when you are working overhead, in tight spaces, or around a bench. Festool pairs that flexibility with a rotating adapter and a CLEANTEC connecting sleeve with integrated bypass. The bayonet-style connection is there for a reason: it keeps the hose attached to the tool more securely, so you are not stopping to reconnect everything when the hose pulls loose in the middle of a pass.
The hose is also antistatic, which is a real quality-of-life upgrade when you are extracting fine dust. It helps reduce static buildup in the hose system, making the setup more comfortable to use and better suited to fine woodworking, finish sanding, and shop cleanup. Festool also rates it for temperatures up to 158 degrees Fahrenheit, so it is built for normal shop and jobsite conditions without turning stiff or fragile when things heat up.
Compatibility is straightforward and important here. This hose is suitable for Festool CT 15, CT 25, CT MINI and CT MIDI from model year 2019, CTC MINI and CTC MIDI, plus CT 26, CT 36, and CT 48 dust extractors. It can also be connected end-to-end with another suction hose to extend your reach when needed. If you are already invested in Festool extraction and want a hose that moves easier, stays connected better, and supports stronger airflow, this is the upgrade worth making.
Who should buy it? Woodworkers, finish carpenters, remodelers, installers, and anyone running Festool dust extraction regularly. If you use extraction every day, the difference between a basic hose and one that is smooth, flexible, conical, and secure at the fitting is not subtle. This is the kind of accessory that makes the whole system work better, especially on jobs where clean results and uninterrupted movement matter.
Moves Easier Around the Shop
This hose is built to be easier to live with during real work. The smooth exterior helps it slide instead of hang up, while the flexible inner hose keeps it from fighting you when you move around a bench, ladder, or installed work.
