Tornado Strike Foam 9 K62862193

Foam 9 (part# K62862193) is the last of the nine numbered acoustic foams that pack the motor compartment of the Tornado Strike TV190-W10-U. Like the rest, it is cut for one position and is not interchangeable with the others.

Compatible Models for the Foam 9

• Tornado Strike Cordless Upright Vacuum — Model TV190-W10-U

This is a Strike-only component: Tacony’s parts records list the Tornado Strike TV190-W10-U as the single machine that takes part# K62862193, so there is no cross-model substitution to worry about when you order it.

What the Foam 9 does

The nine foams together are what let a commercial dual-motor upright run in an occupied building without drawing complaints. They absorb motor noise inside the housing, damp the panels so they do not resonate, and hold the suction motor steady so vibration does not travel into the body of the machine.

Signs the Foam 9 needs replacing

Inspect any time the rear cover is off. Replace foam that has hardened, crumbled at the edges, stopped springing back, or been contaminated with oil, damp or heavy dust. A machine that has got gradually louder over a year with no other change is usually telling you the foam set has aged out.

Fitting the Foam 9

Battery out first. Photograph the arrangement, replace the foam into its own space without folding it, and check nothing overlaps a vent or presses against the motor body. Start every cover screw by hand and tighten to snug, so the foams are held in place rather than crushed.

Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing Tornado equipment since 1956. You can browse the rest of the machine on our Tornado Strike parts pages, and the manufacturer publishes specifications at tornadovac.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the quickest way to tell if a foam is finished?

Press it. If it does not spring back, it has lost its structure and is no longer absorbing sound — regardless of whether it looks intact.

Can I buy the nine foams as a kit?

Tacony sells them individually rather than as a set, which does at least mean you can replace only what has failed. Call 763-535-0770 if you want to order several together.

Do the foams need replacing on a schedule?

No fixed schedule. Hours, heat and dust decide it, so the practical approach is to inspect them whenever the machine is open and replace what has aged.
