<div dir="auto">There are specialty companies that sell heavy duty vacuum parts. Car washes, for instance, repair their vacuums all the time.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I have a newer Sears shop vac but opted to fix my old one as well because it's a far better form factor, being based on a 20-gallon steel drum. The new vacuums are excessively wide and take up valuable floor space. And while I always thought the old one was loud, now that I have both working, the old one has more power (same exact replacement motor) and the new one is louder. </div><div dir='auto'><br></div>

This part has failed in my 20+ year old husky shop vac. It sits on the outside of the motor and has fan type blades in the middle (kinda like a vented brake rotor in appearance). </div>
