MD Mini Hand Turbine Brush
$58.99
Product details
Part 473 is MD's mini hand turbine, an air-driven beater brush 6-1/4 inches wide. It has no motor and needs no electrical connection: the airflow the vacuum pulls through the hose spins the turbine, which drives the brush roll. That is what makes it usable on a plain suction hose, where a motorized power head has no power source at all.
MD builds the housing as a clamshell that opens so you can pull out hair and thread that wrap the brush roll, which is the failure that stops most small turbine heads. The head also pivots forward and backward to hold its angle on stairs and cushions. MD lists it as working on central vacuums, canister vacuums and uprights.
- Part: MD mini hand turbine, part 473
- Width: 6-1/4 inches
- Drive: air driven, no electrical connection required
- Service: clamshell housing opens to clear a jammed brush roll
Stairs, upholstery and vehicle interiors are where a head this size earns its place, since a full-width power brush is awkward to hold at those angles.
