Eureka Rear Axle Clip - 140...

Product details
Part 53111 is the rear axle retaining clip for Eureka and Sanitaire 1400 and 2000 series uprights, sold five to a pack. It is the small retaining clip that locks the rear axle into its mounting bracket and keeps the wheel assembly from sliding out of position.
These clips are easy to lose during a wheel or axle job, since they pop off with a light snap and can go flying across the shop floor. Without one in place, the axle can work its way loose as the machine rolls, which shows up as a rear wheel that sits crooked or a faint clicking as the axle shifts side to side. Buying a five-pack means you always have a spare on hand for the next repair rather than hunting for one that rolled under a bench.
- Part: 53111 rear axle clip, 5 per pack
- Fits: Eureka and Sanitaire 2118B, 2122A, 2124A, 2134A, C2094B, C2194A, C4046B, S635A, SC679J, SL635A, SL635B

The clip presses onto the axle by hand or with light pressure from pliers, no other tools needed. Keep the vacuum unplugged and tipped back on a stable surface while you work at the rear wheels.
Rear axle service is one of the more common repairs on machines that spend years on the same commercial route, since the constant rolling and turning at the rear wears the mounting points long before the motor or switch shows any trouble. Keeping a few spare clips in a parts drawer means a lost clip never turns into a wait for a replacement part.
