I've used the swivel nut cuff, and even if you cut off the extra length of the claw nozzle below the ring that snaps into the cuff, it rubs on the hose and doesn't swivel easily, and it's fairly easy to pull the claw nozzle out of the cuff. If you don't cut the claw nozzle at all, it goes so far into the hose that it won't swivel.

Been using these for years:


If you push really hard they snap right into place, the one your using looks different than I use.
Like ourtown mentioned I do the same way.
The problem with those is if you have to take the swivel part out it’s a bear.. have to heat up the grey part to make it expand a bit and then pry out the clear plastic piece

I never take them apart, just replace them. I couldn't imagine trying to get that clear swivel part out, cause they are a little difficult to get in, I put the clear swivel part in first using a second swivel to help with that, then install the vac nozzle.
