The Hoover WindTunnel Carriage Wheel (Wheel Only) is a replacement front wheel designed to restore smooth movement and proper maneuverability to your Hoover WindTunnel upright vacuum. Over time, carriage wheels can wear down, crack, or become uneven, leading to difficulty pushing the vacuum or causing it to drag on carpets and hard floors. Replacing the wheel ensures your upright glides properly and maintains optimal floor contact.

Crafted from durable molded plastic, this wheel is built to withstand repeated use on a variety of floor types. Its solid construction provides dependable rolling performance, helping maintain the vacuum’s balance and movement. Although this part is no longer manufactured by Hoover, remaining stock offers an excellent opportunity to repair and extend the life of your WindTunnel vacuum using a genuine-spec replacement.

This wheel directly replaces Hoover part #38521004 and fits several well-known WindTunnel upright models. Installation is straightforward—simply remove the worn wheel from the carriage assembly and snap or secure the new wheel into place, depending on your model’s design. Once installed, the wheel restores smooth maneuverability and prevents additional wear on the front support structure.
