Rockler has one that works. I'm not exactly sure which model it is but I believe it's the one I linked below. If you have a store in your area I would check.

I have that one. It works with Festool sanders, Domino, both size track saws as well as my non Festool tools. I highly recommend it.

I have this one also. I hate the collapsible hose. I was was alwayse dighting it. I use the connectors with an older Ridgid auto detailing hose that is super light and no longer available.

Perhaps, but you seem to have a lot conditions to meet that may make it impossible.
-Do you have the old style Festool hose , or the newer fabric covered one ?
-Which CT do you have ?
-What about the festool hose don't you like - and what is it with the bosch that you do ?

Well, the post office lost my Bosch hose and I received a refund from Amazon. After reading other posts I re-ordered the Cen Tec hose. I received it and it fits great. The hose is flexable and fits my shop vac. Away I go.

Another option is Mirka vacuum hose. It is tapered with larger diameter close to the vacuum entry tapering to narrower diameter towards the end. I use it on my Metabo vacuum with my Festool Domino and other tools. Works great and a lot cheaper than Festool, which I had for many years before getting the new Metabo vacuum.
