Simplicity Tandem Air Upright Brush Roll

This brush roll is designed specifically for the Simplicity Tandem Air series. It is compatible with models R40, R40.2, R40P, R40P.2, R40P.4, R40P.6, RAD, RADP, S40, S40.2, S40P, S40P.2, X9, and G9.

This replacement features a durable aluminum and steel construction, which offers significantly more longevity and resistance to wear than standard plastic alternatives. This ensures the brush roll maintains its structural integrity under the high-speed rotation required for deep carpet cleaning.

The gold bristles are engineered specifically for effective carpet agitation. They are stiff enough to lift embedded dirt and debris from deep within carpet fibers, helping to restore your vacuum's grooming performance.

Replacing a brush roll is a standard maintenance task for most upright vacuums. While the exact process varies slightly by model, it generally involves removing the base plate screws to access the roller, sliding the old one out, and securing the new one in place.

You should consider replacing the brush roll if you notice the bristles are worn down, frayed, or if the roller no longer spins freely. A worn brush roll significantly reduces suction efficiency and carpet cleaning effectiveness, so replacing it when damage is visible helps extend the life of your vacuum.
