Large Wheel Axle B010-2800C

Fitting 30 models across 5 Tacony brands — Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity, CleanMax and Powr-Flite — the Rear Wheel Axle (part# B010-2800C) is a genuine OEM replacement built to the original specification. Made by Tacony, the B010-2800C is used across Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity, CleanMax and Powr-Flite models — see the full Compatible Models list below.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, the rear axle positions the rear wheels and gives them the bearing surface they turn on. A straight, smooth axle lets the rear of the nozzle roll freely and keeps the head sitting level, which maintains even brushroll and squeegee contact through the stroke.

Replace the rear axle if it is bent, scored, or worn at the wheel seat, or if the rear wheels wobble or bind. The result of a bad axle is the same as a worn wheel — dragging, thumping, and uneven wear — so it is best replaced alongside the wheel it carries.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the large wheel axle do?

The large wheel axle (part# B010-2800C) is the shaft the machine’s large rear wheels rotate on, carrying the rolling load at the back of the unit. It gives the big wheels a solid, true axis so the machine tracks straight.

What are the signs the large wheel axle is worn?

If a rear wheel wobbles, drags, or sits at an angle, the large wheel axle is likely bent or worn. Fitting a fresh B010-2800C squares the wheel back up and smooths the roll.

Is the large wheel axle the same as the front wheel axle?

No — this is the heavier axle for the large rear wheels, separate from the front wheel axle (B010-0001E) at the nozzle’s leading edge. Match B010-2800C to the large rear wheels.

Which vacuums use the large wheel axle (part# B010-2800C)?

It fits the Tornado Roam 97300 and 97300C — see the Compatible Models list above for every compatible machine.
