I have flash cuffs but they do not screw all the way onto my vac hose. Does anybody that uses flash cuff know which hose has a smooth bore that flash cuffs fit well?

just squirt some goop in the cuff to hold it in. It's a waste of money if you buy a hose for the cuff

The flash cuffs grab the outside of the hose not the inside. Smooth bore refers to the inside of a vac hose. The flash cuffs will fit on any of the Amflex type hoses. Don't use glue or tape. Just tighten them all the way and check them before you use them. I have flash cuffs on all my hoses and have no issues.

Thank you for your response. I realize smooth bore refers to the inside. I need new hose anyway so I would like hose that has a smooth bore and the flash cuffs fit well

I have a mix of new and older hoses. Mainly Amflex but the flash cuffs fit on all. You could use a little silicone to help secure them, you can then get them off when they need replacing. Cuffs break or wear out needing periodic replacement. Glue or duct tape is not a good option.

I still dont know how I got on his Naughty List. Thing is, I can still get his products cause I just ask other cleaners to get them for me but he has no clue who they are
