A: Hello Waynec,
Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The LA2520 is the correct hose replacement for your vacuum. However, it will not work just the hose assembly out from the box. You still need the correct end hose interlock in order for it to work with your vacuum. The old end hose interlock is the one you need. You may pull out the one the came with your old hose and use it with the new hose. If you no longer have it, we can send one to you at no cost. You may call Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or email us at info@ridgidvacs.com and we can place the order for the old end hose interlock.
Thank you,

A: Hello Mike, Thanks for your inquiry about our product. We'd like to know the model number of the vac to confirm the fitment. If your 6-gallon RIDGID vac came with a 2-1/2" hose, it will fit. However, we're interested to know the model number of your vac to determine whether you will need an extra adapter or not.

Q:Does this house have the swivel end and does it lock into vacuum?
by|Sep 14, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Hello Opsirc,
Thank you for your inquiry about our products. This doesn’t have swivel end hose but your hose locks onto both your vac and your wand or accessory, so nothing falls during use. The hose's DUAL-FLEX feature adds 180° mobility at each end and its flexible design resists clogging.
If you have further questions or concerns, you may call Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or email us at info@ridgidvacs.com

A: Hi PLC1,
Thank you for your inquiry. This hose comes with three different adapters. The friction fit hose adapter has a part number 815096 and 829900 for 2 1/2" locking adapter that locks the older 2 1/2" RIDGID accessories. However, the adapter that locks to vac and accessories is not available as a separate part.

A: I could not find an answer to this anywhere but my guess is that it is a very durable bendable plastic. I have stood on it, laid on it and never had a problem with it. I have had it for about two years and use it monthly many times. My main use was to get pink insulation out of the attic.

Q:Will this work with my model HD14000 Ridgid Vac
I'm going to run this hose out of the Vacs exhaust to to an exterior basement window to vent out concrete dust from my grinder. Purchased the HEPA kit also so I think minimal dust will be exiting the VAC.

A: Hello FrankR, Thanks for your inquiry about our product. This LA2522 2-1/2 in. x 20 ft. Dual-Flex Tug-A-Long Locking Vacuum Hose will work with HD14000 together with the VF6500 OSHA Kit filter and cyclonic bags. However, the dust will only be sucked up through the hose that is connected to the vacuum's suction port and will be collected inside the drum. Only clean air will be blowing out of the exhaust port of the vacuum.
