Genuine Fein vacuum filters for Fein wet/dry dust extractors: three flat pleated HEPA filters, part numbers 31345012010, 31345059010 and 31345060010. Twin City Vacuum in Crystal, MN has sold and serviced vacuums and dust extractors since 1956.
Choosing Fein Vacuum Filters for Your Dust Extractor
Fein dust extractors are built for job-site and shop dust — drywall, concrete, sanding and cutting dust — that would clog an ordinary vacuum filter in minutes. The flat pleated HEPA filter is the main filter in the machine: it protects the motor and keeps fine particles out of the air you breathe.
The three filters here are for different Fein extractor models, so do not assume they are interchangeable. Match the part number on your current filter, or check the Compatible Models list on each product. The model number is on the label on the extractor housing.
Getting the most from a HEPA filter
Use the machine's filter cleaning function (where fitted) regularly during dusty work to keep airflow up.
Use a dust bag for fine dust; it keeps most of the load off the pleated filter.
For wet pickup, check your manual — some setups call for removing or protecting the filter.
Replace the filter when cleaning no longer restores suction, or if the pleats are torn or damaged.
A damaged HEPA filter on a dust extractor is a health issue, not just a performance one: it lets the finest, most harmful dust straight back into the room.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Fein vacuum filter do I need?
Fein uses different flat pleated HEPA filters for different extractor models. Match the part number on your current filter (31345012010, 31345059010 or 31345060010) or check the Compatible Models list on each product.
How often should I replace a Fein HEPA filter?
Replace it when filter cleaning no longer restores suction, or immediately if the pleats are torn or damaged.
Can I wash a Fein flat pleated HEPA filter?
Follow your owner's manual. Use the built-in filter cleaning function or tap it out, and never reinstall a wet or damaged filter.
Do I need a bag in my Fein dust extractor?
For fine dust such as drywall or concrete, a dust bag is strongly recommended. It keeps most of the dust off the HEPA filter and makes emptying cleaner.
