My bayonet attachment that came with vac, the 27mm anti static is quite beat up now having been repaired twice. All I can find is a bayonet piece that fits larger hoses and I don’t really want to buy a new hose just to get another piece that is small anyway. Does this exist?
On that topic I’m currently using the metal adapter for the erika to shove into dust port to then go on 76mm odd hose for table saw etc, I’m sure theres a better fitting more elegant solution out there.

I'm not sure it's available as a spare part. I took mine all off and switched to Festool hose ends. The bayonet broke on the vac and you can't get the spare part, needed to buy a whole new tub. The Festool hose ends fit straight inside the vac.
No elegant solution for the Erika - I cobbled something together using waste water pipe fittings, then on to a Magfix adapter to a 76mm hose.

I use a short section of Festool 32mm hose with FT ends on my Erika. Fits the dust port well.

So you shoved a Festool 50/50 in there? When I briefly had the Festool table saw I did find their Y Piece slotted nicely inside the already existing tube.
The original damage was caused by fall/trip onto the protruding end of the hose which cracked the connecting bayonet outer ring and shifted the tub’s inner tube but it didn’t crack fortunately.
Starmix basic 35mm hose has a similar looking bayonet but seems sold out most places or too high a price if not.

I have Starmix 50, 35 and 27mm hoses. The vac ends on 35 and 27mm have been replaced with Festool parts. They push fit into the fitting on the Starmix.

The hose goes over the port not inside. John
