Product details
Part 17382 is the flat belt listed for Hoover's Dial and Concept Power Drive uprights, and it is the belt that turns the brush roll from the motor shaft on those machines.
Because the belt is the only link between motor and roller, wear here shows up as a roller that slows or stalls while the motor sound stays the same. Carpet stops lifting and the vacuum starts gliding over dirt instead of pulling it up. Stretched rubber, glazing on the belt's inner face, and a burning smell are the usual signs that it needs replacing rather than the roller itself.
Flat belts on upright vacuums are a wear item rather than a defect, so an owner who runs the machine often should expect to change one from time to time. Keeping a spare on hand avoids losing cleaning time to a part that costs little and takes a few minutes to swap once the cover is open.
- Part: 17382, flat drive belt
- Fits: Hoover Dial and Concept, Power Drive models
- Function: drives the brush roll from the motor shaft
- Tip: spin the roller by hand once the cover is off to confirm it turns freely before fitting the new belt
Verify your machine is one of the Power Drive Dial or Concept uprights before ordering, since Hoover used more than one belt style across those lines.
