Designed for the Festool IAS 2 system, this specialised connector joins a compatible IAS 2 hose to selected Festool CT mobile dust extractors, SRM 45 or SRM 70 extractors and EAA energy boxes in EW\/DW configuration. Its integrated compressed-air connection allows the pneumatic supply to be routed into the IAS 2 hose alongside the extraction airflow, helping reduce the number of separate hoses surrounding the operator. The antistatic design supports the controlled dissipation of static charge when used as part of a correctly configured antistatic extraction system, making it especially suitable for professional pneumatic sanding installations in workshops, automotive refinishing areas and finishing departments.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\r\n  \u003cstrong\u003eOne connection for compressed air and efficient dust extraction\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Festool IAS 2 system combines the compressed-air supply, exhaust-air return and dust extraction required by compatible pneumatic tools into a coordinated hose system.
