Festool D 36 VR-M 3x Stainless Steel Suction Extension Tube Set – 36mm, 950mm, 3 Piece
At a Glance: Professional Festool D 36 VR-M 3x suction extension tube set, consisting of three robust stainless steel tube sections with a nominal 36mm diameter and 950mm assembled length. Designed for compatible Festool D 27 and D 36 dust extraction cleaning systems, the modular construction allows quick assembly, convenient storage and comfortable floor cleaning. Ideal for professional workshops, construction sites and general cleaning applications. The assembled tube can also be stored using suitable cleaning accessory holders on compatible Festool CT 15, CT MINI and CT MIDI dust extractors.
Make workshop and construction site cleaning more convenient with the Festool D 36 VR-M 3x Stainless Steel Suction Extension Tube Set. Designed as part of Festool&s professional dust extraction and cleaning accessory system, this practical three-piece extension tube provides the reach, strength and versatility needed for efficient floor cleaning and general dust removal.
Whether cleaning sawdust from a woodworking workshop, removing debris after installation work or maintaining a tidy working area, the Festool D 36 VR-M 3x helps transform a compatible dust extractor into a convenient cleaning system. Its 950mm assembled length provides comfortable reach when working with a suitable hand tube and floor cleaning nozzle, reducing the need to bend repeatedly when cleaning floor surfaces.
One of the main advantages of this extension tube set is its three-piece modular construction. Instead of requiring a single long tube that may be awkward to transport, the set consists of three separate sections that connect to form a stable suction extension. The individual sections can be separated again after use, making storage and transportation easier.
Manufactured from stainless steel, the tubes offer the strength and durability required for regular professional cleaning work. The robust metal construction is particularly useful in demanding workshop environments where cleaning accessories are frequently assembled, handled and transported.
The set features Festool&s D 36 connection format and is intended for use with compatible D 27 and D 36 cleaning accessories. When paired with a suitable suction hose, hand tube and cleaning nozzle, it forms part of a practical manual cleaning arrangement for floors and other accessible surfaces.
Festool has designed the extension tubes for quick, straightforward assembly. The separate sections connect together to create the required working length, allowing users to prepare their cleaning equipment without complicated procedures.
Another useful feature is compatibility with suitable cleaning accessory storage arrangements on the Festool CT 15, CT MINI and CT MIDI dust extractors. This allows the extension tube to be kept conveniently alongside the extractor, helping ensure that the cleaning equipment is available whenever it is needed.
The D 36 VR-M 3x is an excellent accessory for professional woodworkers, cabinetmakers, installation teams, building contractors and workshops that regularly use Festool extraction equipment. It provides a dependable connection between compatible hand tubes and cleaning nozzles while offering a practical working length for everyday cleaning.
With its robust stainless steel construction, modular design and convenient Festool system compatibility, the Festool D 36 VR-M 3x is a practical addition to a professional dust extraction and cleaning accessory collection.
Festool dust extraction accessories are designed to extend the usefulness of compatible mobile dust extractors beyond direct power tool dust extraction.
The D 36 VR-M 3x consists of three stainless steel extension tube sections that connect to provide a nominal assembled length of 950mm. This creates a practical rigid extension for compatible floor cleaning nozzles and other suitable cleaning accessories.
The modular construction combines dependable working stability with compact storage, making the tube set especially convenient for professionals who move between workshops, vehicles and installation sites.
With compatible D 27 and D 36 connections, the set can form part of a flexible Festool cleaning system for removing sawdust, loose dirt and general workplace debris.

What Is a Suction Extension Tube?
A suction extension tube is a rigid accessory fitted between a compatible vacuum cleaning hand tube and a cleaning nozzle.
Its primary purpose is to extend the working reach of the cleaning system and provide a stable connection for controlling floor cleaning attachments.
Unlike a flexible suction hose, a rigid extension tube can be used to guide a floor nozzle more comfortably across the working surface.
The Festool D 36 VR-M 3x is particularly practical because its three sections assemble into a 950mm extension while remaining easy to separate for transport and storage.
Why Does This Set Have Three Sections?
The Festool D 36 VR-M 3x is supplied as three separate suction tube sections.
When connected, the sections create a stable 950mm extension suitable for compatible cleaning accessories.
When the extension is not required, the tubes can be disconnected and stored more compactly.
This arrangement is especially convenient for tradespeople who need to carry cleaning equipment between workshops, service vehicles and construction sites.
Why Choose Stainless Steel Suction Tubes?
Stainless steel is a durable metal material suited to the construction of rigid professional cleaning accessories.
It provides strength and good resistance to corrosion under normal conditions, making it a practical choice for reusable suction extension tubes.
The metal construction helps maintain the stability of the assembled extension during suitable cleaning applications.
Although stainless steel is durable, the tubes should still be protected from impact damage, excessive force and contamination that could interfere with their connections.
Understanding the D 36 Diameter
The designation D 36 identifies the nominal 36mm connection format used by this Festool cleaning accessory.
Festool offers dust extraction accessories in different diameter systems, including D 27, D 36 and D 50.
The correct diameter and connection profile are important because the suction tube must fit securely to the intended hand tube, cleaning nozzle or connecting accessory.
Festool specifies the D 36 VR-M 3x for suitable D 27/D 36 applications. The required connection arrangement depends on the other components being used.
Why Is the 950mm Length Useful?
The assembled tube has a nominal length of 950mm.
This provides useful working reach when combined with a suitable curved hand tube and floor cleaning nozzle.
For floor cleaning, the additional length helps the operator guide the nozzle while maintaining a more comfortable standing position.
The complete working reach depends on the lengths and shapes of the additional cleaning accessories connected to the tube set.
What Is the Difference Between D 36 VR-M 3x and D 36 VR-K AS 3x?
Festool offers different suction extension tube configurations for different cleaning requirements.
D 36 VR-M 3x – Part Number 452902: Three-piece stainless steel suction extension tube set with a 950mm assembled length.
D 36 VR-K AS 3x – Part Number 203137: Separate three-piece antistatic suction extension tube set, also specified with a 950mm length.
The antistatic designation is a specific feature of the VR-K AS version and should not automatically be attributed to the stainless steel VR-M set.
Choose the appropriate version according to the cleaning system and the manufacturer&s recommendations.
Can the Extension Tubes Be Stored on a Festool Dust Extractor?
Festool identifies the D 36 VR-M 3x as suitable for use with designated cleaning accessory holders on compatible CT 15, CT MINI and CT MIDI dust extractors.
This allows the extension tubes to be stored conveniently alongside the extractor rather than separately in a vehicle or toolbox.
Keeping accessories together helps prevent misplaced components and makes it easier to prepare the cleaning equipment for the next task.
The appropriate cleaning accessory holder must be present and compatible with the extractor.
What Accessories Are Needed for a Complete Floor Cleaning System?
The D 36 VR-M 3x provides the rigid extension section of a cleaning arrangement.
For conventional floor cleaning, additional compatible components normally include a Festool dust extractor, suction hose, hand tube or handle and suitable floor cleaning nozzle.
The exact components required depend on the extractor model and the intended cleaning application.
The suction extension tube set is supplied separately and should not be confused with a complete Festool cleaning set containing multiple accessory types.
Understanding the D 36 VR-M 3x Designation
D 36: Nominal 36mm suction tube and cleaning accessory format.
VR: Festool designation for the extension tube configuration.
M: Identifies the metal version of this extension tube range.
3x: Three individual tube sections supplied in the set.
452902: Official Festool manufacturer part number.
Pro Tips
- Check both connections: Ensure the suction hand tube and cleaning nozzle are compatible with the D 36 extension tube format.
- Assemble securely: Push the three sections together correctly before beginning cleaning to prevent accidental separation.
- Use a suitable floor nozzle: Select a cleaning attachment appropriate for the floor covering and type of debris being removed.
- Keep connections clean: Dust and debris at the joining points may prevent the sections from fitting together correctly.
- Store the tubes together: Keep all three sections in the same storage location to avoid losing individual components.
- Use extractor-mounted storage: Where a compatible holder is available, keep the tube set alongside the CT 15, CT MINI or CT MIDI.
- Avoid excessive sideways force: Use the extension as a suction cleaning accessory rather than a lever for moving furniture or heavy objects.
- Inspect for damage: Check for dented ends, loose connections or sharp edges before use.
- Use suitable extraction equipment: Match the extractor&s dust classification and filtration to the materials and hazards being cleaned.
- Do not confuse the tube variants: The D 36 VR-M 3x is the stainless steel version. The separate D 36 VR-K AS 3x is specifically identified as antistatic.
- Clean after use: Remove accumulated dust and debris before separating and storing the tube sections.
How to Use
- Check compatibility: Confirm that the selected Festool dust extractor and cleaning accessories support the required D 27/D 36 connection arrangement.
- Inspect the sections: Check all three stainless steel tubes for damage, obstruction or contamination.
- Connect the tubes: Join the three sections using the intended connection ends to create the complete extension.
- Check the assembled length: Confirm that the tube sections are seated securely and form a stable extension.
- Attach the hand tube: Connect the assembled extension to the appropriate Festool cleaning hand tube or compatible accessory.

- Disconnect the tubes: Separate the sections carefully without twisting or forcing the connections excessively.
- Clean the sections: Remove accumulated debris and wipe the tube surfaces as necessary.
- Store properly: Keep the sections together or place them in the designated holder on a compatible Festool extractor.
