Hole Plug A018-1414

The hole plug (part# A018-1414) is a molded plug that fills and seals an unused opening in the housing of the Tornado Roam 97300 commercial upright vacuum.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, a hole plug caps an opening in the body or housing — a mounting hole, access port, or molding hole not used in this configuration. Seated in place, it keeps the housing airtight and finished so airflow is not lost through an open hole and dust and debris cannot enter the cavity behind it, giving the machine a clean, complete exterior.

Replace the hole plug if it is missing, cracked, or no longer seating tightly, or if you notice reduced suction, whistling air, or dust collecting where an open hole has been left exposed. A missing plug is easy to overlook but can bleed airflow and let grit into the housing. It is an inexpensive part that restores a proper seal.
