Eureka Sanitaire Curved Wan...

Product details
Part 261933 is the bent tool end fitted to the wand on Mighty Mite canisters in the 3670 series, badged under both the Eureka and Sanitaire names, and it is a confirmed match for the SC3683A, SC3683D, and SL3681A models in that lineup.
This piece absorbs more daily wear than almost anything else on the machine, since it is the section an operator actually grips and levers into tight corners on every single pass. Fatigue at the bend itself, or a split opening up at either connection point, lets air escape at the spot in the system farthest from the motor, and the result is deceptive to diagnose: the unit sounds exactly as strong as it always has while whatever tool sits on the end of it picks up almost nothing off the floor. Plenty of operators end up chasing the fault at the floor tool for a while before realizing the actual leak is sitting back at the wand the whole time.
Because the symptom mimics a weak floor tool so closely, it is worth testing suction directly at the tool end opening before swapping any attachment, since that quick check rules the wand in or out before time gets spent on the wrong part. Cupping a hand over the opening and feeling for a strong, even pull is usually enough to tell the difference in under a minute.
Install the new piece in the same position the old one occupied, connecting the hose on one side and your chosen attachment on the other, then confirm both connections seat snugly with a firm push rather than sitting loose. A loose-fitting connection bleeds air just as readily as a cracked one, so getting a tight seal matters as much as the part swap itself.
