Lightning Lock 102mm/4" Flange Fitting

Lightning Lock is the next revolution in quick-connect dust collection fittings! Lightning Lock Flex Hose Fittings are packed with features you absolutely will not find in any other dust collection system.

When the Carbon Method team started developing Lightning Lock dust collection fittings, their goal was to improve the experience of moving dust hoses from tool to tool. Until now, the whole process of moving dust collection hoses has been clunky, inconvenient, and fiddly.

Efficiency in your dust collection system is important, not only for airflow, but also for work flow. Most dust collection systems are a series of compromises to reach a goal. Lightning Lock minimises those compromises and provides solutions to them.

With Lightning Lock, they have made three major improvements in dust collection fittings that together will revolutionise your dust collection system.

Lightning Lock dust collection fittings sport a completely genderless quick-connect design. Any fitting connects seamlessly with any other. There are no "male" or "female" pieces, just one versatile connection.

Lightning Lock fittings connect and disconnect in a snap, to make moving from tool to tool lightning fast. This is achieved with magnets. The magnets in the Lightning Lock fittings are completely enclosed, instead of relying on epoxy or glue to keep the magnets in place, which eliminates the risk of them falling out over time. Lightning Lock is a strong connection, easily supporting the weight of the dust hose and then some.

Finally, one of the most exciting feature of Lightning Lock is that every single fitting rotates. It's impossible to explain how much of an improvement this rotating design makes when these are in use. Hoses don't kink or tangle, they just relax into place, making these truly a joy to use. The connections achieve this rotation without any measurable loss in suction or air flow.

The combination of a genderless design, magnetic connection, and captive rotation means that any Lightning Lock fitting will attach to any other of the same size, simply by putting the two near each other! They self align when you connect them, magnets and rotation automatically lining the fittings up to tightly and securely connect. They don't clog, you never have to clean them, and they just work, really, really well.

This 102mm/4" fitting has an integrated flange. Screw this into a surface and quickly connect and disconnect. Screw mounting recesses are perfectly sized for pocket hole screws. Bottom seal ring is designed to compress and seal once mounted. Works great with shop-made dust ports or tool dust port modifications, or downdraft or sanding boxes.

Don't forget to add the Lightning Lock Flex Hose Connector102mm/4" Standard to connect your hose up to this Flange Port.
