Product Description
Milwaukee 18 in. Hose Adapter for Dust Shrouds
Model Number: 49-40-6190
The Milwaukee 49-40-6190 is an 18 in. Hose Adapter for Milwaukee angle grinder dust shrouds — a flexible hose extension that connects the dust shroud's vacuum port to the vacuum hose connection when the vacuum hose's standard length creates a strain point at the shroud attachment during angle grinder use. The 18 in. flexible adapter provides an extension between the shroud's built-in vacuum port and the point where the main vacuum hose connects, allowing the vacuum connection to flex and move as the grinder is repositioned during grinding work without pulling at the shroud's vacuum port fitting or creating tension in the main hose that would restrict grinder movement and operator control. Maintaining unrestricted grinder movement during dust-controlled concrete and masonry grinding operations is critical for both grinding quality and operator comfort — a vacuum hose connection that restricts tool movement or creates feedback tension at the tool handle degrades grinding control and increases operator fatigue.
Compatible with Milwaukee dust shroud models 49-40-6100 and 49-40-6180, the 18 in. hose adapter connects the shroud to standard vacuum hose fittings in the Milwaukee OSHA silica dust control system. The flexible construction allows the adapter to accommodate the range of grinding angles and positions used during angle grinder surface grinding and cutting work without kinking or collapsing the hose cross-section in ways that would restrict the airflow needed for effective dust capture. Maintaining adequate airflow through the dust collection system is the fundamental requirement for OSHA crystalline silica engineering control compliance during concrete and masonry grinding operations — any airflow restriction from hose kinking or collapse reduces dust capture efficiency below the required performance level.
