6" X 72" Aluminum Dig Tube Extension FF/FF FAQ

How do I know which connection my truck uses?

Look at the end of your current tube: flat flange (Vactor and Vac-Con style), Bandlock or Ringlock. Match the connection and the diameter.

Aluminum or HDPE?

HDPE tubes are non-conductive and resist corrosion and abrasion. Aluminum dig tubes come with a non-conductive poly cuff on the digging end, and aluminum extensions are flanged both ends.
