Tools and Hardware Reviews of Jet JW1044 4-to-2-1/2-Inch Reducer
Customer Review: Jet 4 inch to 2 1/2 inch reducer for dust port
Summary: 5 Stars
This reducer did fit my Jet band saw because it has a 4 inch cast iron port. I also ordered the 4 inch quick disconnect so I used a pc of 4 inch pvc to connect the 2 items and they work fine.Customer Review: Jet reducer

It is what it is. An adapter/reducer for saw dust collection systems. It is plastic and black. This item has been reviewed.Customer Review: Make sure this is what you want
Summary: 5 Stars
This item works as advertised. I bought this when I was setting up my dust collection system and wanted to connect it to my spindle sander (which takes a shop-vac type of connector). I was not careful when I read the dimensions of this reducer. This will not work for such purpose. It will work if you want to connect your shop-vac to it and then connect the other end to the 4" connector of a machine. The problem is that a shop-vac is 2 1/4" and not 2 1/2. There is a different adaptor you could use for that.Customer Review: Not as pictured
Summary: 3 Stars
The adapter I received has a flat interface, not the funnel style shown. That makes a difference if using the piece with the airflow going from 4" to 2 1/2" due to increased turbulence. If you're planning to use this downstream from large to small diameter then I suggest you find one that is indeed funnel-shaped.
Customer Review: Not for connecting shop vacs
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this with a dust collection hood for my planer. The hood has a 4" port. I thought that I could plug my shop vac hose into this adapter and then plug the adapter into the hood. My mistake! This will allow you to adapt a 4" hose to a 2.5" hose, but I had to tape the adapter to the hood as both ends of the adapter are female.
