Product details
Riccar and Simplicity both list part B338-5414 as the crevice tool for the Prima and Wonder canisters, one nozzle serving the machine under either badge.
Compatibility runs across the family rather than one model. On the Riccar side that covers PRIMA.2, PRIMAP.2, PRIMA.4SS, PRIMAP.CPN, PRIMAP.FSN and PRIMAP.TAD along with the R50 canisters, and on the Simplicity side WONDER.2, WONDERP.2, WONDER.4SS, WONDERP.CPN, WONDERP.FSN and WONDERP.TAD. If your machine is one of those, this is the nozzle listed for it.
The tapered slot narrows the airpath so everything the canister makes arrives at one small opening. That is the only way to lift grit out of a baseboard corner, a sofa seam, a sliding door track or the tight gap next to a vehicle seat, where a wide nozzle rides over the top of the problem. It is the least-used tool in most caddies and the one nothing else stands in for.
Replace it when the base cracks. A split near the neck draws stray air in behind the tip, and the tool goes soft even though the hose and bag are clear, which is the argument for keeping narrow tools clipped in the caddy rather than loose in a closet where they get stood on. There is nothing serviceable inside a single molded nozzle once it splits, so a cracked one is replaced rather than repaired, and at this end of the parts list that is a small purchase.
