Bumper B352-0200

The Bumper (part# B352-0200) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part fitted across ten backpack vacuum models in the Tornado and CleanMax ranges. It is the moulded bumper on the body of the machine that takes the knocks — door frames, desk legs, stair nosings — so the housing itself does not.

When to replace it: the bumper has torn, split or been knocked off its mounting; it has gone hard and brittle with age so it cracks instead of absorbing a knock; or it is missing entirely and the housing underneath has started to scuff and mark. On a machine that works a route all day, the bumper is the cheapest part on the vacuum and the one standing between a hard corner and a cracked body shell.

It is a quick change on the bench — the bumper comes away from its mounting and the new one seats in the same place, with no motor or filter work involved. If the housing under it is already cracked, replace the bumper and inspect the shell at the same time; a bumper will not hold a split housing together.

Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing Tacony equipment since 1956. The full parts breakdown for these machines, with the schematic and every part on it, is on our Tornado Pac-Vac Aircomfort parts page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Bumper do on a backpack vacuum?

It is the moulded bumper on the machine body that absorbs impacts against door frames, furniture and stair nosings so the housing shell does not take the damage. On a machine used on a daily cleaning route it is the part that keeps the body cosmetically and structurally sound.

How do I know if my Bumper needs replacing?

Replace it when it is torn, split, hardened and cracking with age, knocked off its mounting, or missing altogether. Scuffs and marks appearing on the housing itself are the sign it is no longer doing its job.

What models is the Bumper (part# B352-0200) compatible with?
