This is a spring-loaded dust extractor latch designed to clamp the extractor's top (motor head) to its bottom (dirt container). It is a single replacement clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen one of these clamps cracks or loses spring tension, the head doesn't seat tight against the container. That means air leaks at the seam, weaker suction at the hose, and a head that can shift when you roll or lift the extractor. Replacing the clamp restores the closure without replacing any larger assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFestool spare parts are model-specific.
