When the flexible hose connecting your EDCO grinder's dust shroud to your vacuum or dust collector starts cracking, splitting, or leaking air at the cuffs, dust-collection efficiency drops fast - and so does jobsite visibility and compliance. The EDCO 77113 is a 2-inch ID x 32-inch length flexible replacement hose, a direct-fit EDCO part built for grinding and dust-collection equipment. Concrete contractors, flooring installers, and surface-prep pros keep one on hand to restore a tight air seal between the grinder head and the vacuum, so suction - and dust control - stay where they belong.
Use Cases
- Replacing a cracked, split, or worn-through dust-collection hose on EDCO grinding equipment
- Connecting a grinder's dust shroud to a vacuum or dust collector to re-establish a tight air seal
- General shop or jobsite replacement for 2-inch ID flexible dust-collection lines
- Maintaining consistent airflow to support HEPA/silica dust-collection compliance on active jobsites
- Keeping a spare hose on hand for high-use grinders to cut downtime when a hose fails mid-job
Specifications
- Inside diameter: 2 inches
- Length: 32 inches
- Construction: flexible, jobsite-duty hose material built to withstand repeated flexing and abrasion
- EDCO part number: 77113
- Application: dust-collection/vacuum connection hose for EDCO grinding equipment
Air-tight connections matter more than most contractors expect on a dust-collection setup. A hose that's cracked, pinched, or leaking at a fitting lets outside air in, which robs the vacuum of the suction it needs to pull dust away from the wheel - even a well-sealed shroud and a strong vacuum motor can't compensate for a bad hose in between. Contractors running EDCO grinders for extended periods, especially on abrasive concrete and mortar removal work, report that the dust hose is one of the first components to show wear: constant flexing, dragging across rough slabs, and fine silica dust working into the hose wall all shorten its service life faster than most other parts on the machine. Swapping a worn hose before it fails outright is a cheap way to avoid a mid-shift dust-control problem, a failed visual dust check, or an unplanned trip to a supplier.
Frequently asked questions
What equipment does the EDCO 77113 hose fit?
It's a direct-fit EDCO replacement part designed for the dust-collection hose connection on EDCO grinding and dust-collection equipment that uses a 2-inch ID x 32-inch length hose.
How do I install or connect this hose?
It connects between the grinder's dust shroud outlet and the vacuum or dust collector inlet, typically secured with the existing hose clamps or cuffs from your machine. Match the hose ends to your current connection points before removing the old hose so the swap goes quickly.
Will this hose work with other 2-inch dust-collection systems?
It's built as an EDCO replacement part, so it's intended for EDCO grinding and dust-collection equipment. If another brand's system uses the same 2-inch ID and comparable connection points, it may fit, but always check your machine's hose diameter and cuff style first.
How often should a dust-collection hose be replaced?
There's no fixed interval - it depends on hours of use and how abrasive the material being ground is. Inspect the hose regularly for cracks, soft spots, or air leaks at the connections, and replace it as soon as you notice reduced suction or visible dust escaping.
Does a worn hose really affect dust collection that much?
Yes. Any air leak between the shroud and the vacuum reduces the negative pressure pulling dust into the system, which can mean more airborne dust at the grinder head even if the vacuum itself is working fine.
Discount Cleaning Products stocks genuine EDCO replacement parts like the 77113 flex hose so concrete and surface-prep contractors can keep grinding and dust-collection equipment running at full efficiency without hunting down parts mid-job.
