Product Overview

The Simplicity 7000 Series Roller Brush Metal Non‑Clutch #D012‑0500B is a replacement agitator designed specifically for Simplicity upright vacuums in the 7000 line that use a non‑clutch (always-engaged) brush roll. Its all-metal core and robust design make it ideal for homes with pets, long hair, or heavy daily vacuuming. Built for durability, this brush meets OEM tolerances and is offered through Authorized Dealer Ace Vacuums (in store and online) to ensure genuine quality.

Key Features

• All‑metal shaft and construction for enhanced strength and longevity

• Precise OEM dimensions matching Simplicity factory specs

• Non‑clutch design (always rotating) to suit models without brush on/off switch

• Red backing with gold nylon bristles (≈10.3 mm length) for deep carpet penetration

• Dual ball bearings for smooth rotation

• Direct-fit replacement — no modification needed

• Balanced construction to minimize vibration and noise

• Compatible with belt and pulley systems of the 7000 series models

• Backed by Ace Vacuums’ guarantee of authenticity

What Makes This Model Stand Out

• Many roller brushes on the market use plastic or hybrid constructions; the #D012‑0500B uses a fully metallic core which resists bending and wear over time.

• Because it is non‑clutch, it eliminates mechanical clutch parts that could fail or require maintenance (for machines designed for non‑clutch operation).

• It maintains OEM tolerances for balance and runout, contributing to quieter operation, less drag on the belt, and longer motor life.

• Sourced through Authorized Dealer Ace Vacuums, so quality is assured and warranty support is straightforward.
