Riccar B013-1000 Short Nylon Standard Brush Strip for R10/R17 Metal Agitators

Riccar B013-1000 Short Nylon Standard Brush Strip for R10/R17 Metal Agitators

The Riccar / Simplicity / CleanMax B013-1000 Short Nylon Brush Strip is a replacement brush strip for select ultra-lightweight upright vacuums with compatible metal agitator brush rolls. This short nylon brush strip is the standard brush strip option for compatible Riccar R10, R17, Simplicity, CleanMax, and related ULW metal agitator applications.

Replacing worn brush strips can help restore carpet agitation, floor contact, and debris pickup without replacing the complete metal brush roll when the agitator itself is still in good condition. This brush strip is commonly referenced for RSL5, F3700, ZM600, and ULW metal agitator applications.

Product Details

Fitment Note

Please verify your vacuum model number, original brush strip length, and metal agitator style before ordering. Riccar, Simplicity, and CleanMax ultra-lightweight vacuums may use different brush strips depending on the agitator design and production version. This listing is for B013-1000, the short nylon standard brush strip for compatible ULW metal agitators.

Installation Note

Always unplug the vacuum before servicing. Inspect the metal agitator, brush strip channels, long brush strips, end caps, bearings, belt, baseplate, and nozzle area while replacing brush strips. If the roller brush is bent, cracked, noisy, or difficult to spin, the complete agitator assembly may need to be replaced.
