Polivac Wombat Inner Cloth Bag (Wire) – Reusable Vacuum Bag (PW001)

Guarantee absolute motor protection and extend the lifespan of your commercial backpack with the heavy-duty Polivac Wombat Inner Cloth Bag (PW001). In high-traffic commercial contract cleaning, standard disposable paper bags are highly prone to tearing when subjected to sharp debris and heavy industrial dust. If a paper bag bursts inside your machine, the vacuum motor is instantly flooded with dirt, causing catastrophic failure. This premium reusable vacuum bag serves as an indispensable secondary filtration layer. Worn internally and attached directly to the bag ring, it acts as an indestructible barrier, safely catching massive volumes of heavy debris and ensuring your expensive vacuum motor remains perfectly protected from dust bypass.

Engineered exclusively for the legendary Polivac Wombat backpack vacuum, this specialized commercial vacuum bag features a heavy-duty cloth fabric construction reinforced with an internal wire frame. The wire structure ensures the bag holds its shape, preventing it from collapsing inward and suffocating the vacuum's cyclonic airflow as it fills with dirt. This allows the machine to maintain 100% of its aggressive, factory-level suction power throughout your entire cleaning shift. Highly cost-effective and fully washable, the PW001 Inner Bag is an essential, eco-friendly maintenance component for professional janitors and tradespeople looking to minimize ongoing consumable costs.

Who Is This Polivac Inner Cloth Bag Ideal For?

The PW001 Cloth Bag delivers heavy-duty filtration and shape-retaining wire construction. It is highly recommended for:

  • Commercial Cleaning Contractors: Drastically cutting equipment running costs by utilizing a highly durable, reusable vacuum bag to protect their Polivac Wombat fleet instead of relying purely on fragile paper bags.
  • Construction & Tradespeople: Relying on the heavy-duty cloth fabric to safely catch sharp wood splinters, heavy plaster rubble, and screws that would instantly shred a standard disposable commercial vacuum bag.
  • School & Facility Janitors: Keeping a spare, clean inner cloth bag on hand so they can rapidly swap bags during a busy shift, ensuring the vacuum always operates at peak suction performance.
  • Appliance Repair Technicians: Sourcing highly reliable, exact-fit cloth bags to professionally refurbish clients' Polivac Wombat backpacks, ensuring the motors are fully protected before returning them to service.

Key Features and Performance Benefits:

  • Heavy-Duty Cloth Fabric: Vastly superior durability compared to paper. The thick cloth material safely contains sharp, heavy debris without tearing or bursting under massive suction pressure.
  • Internal Wire Reinforcement: Features a rigid wire frame that holds the bag open. This stops the cloth from collapsing over the motor intake, ensuring your vacuum maintains maximum suction power.
  • Massive Cost Savings: Because it is 100% reusable, you empty the dirt into the bin and put the bag straight back into the machine. This drastically reduces the ongoing expense of buying disposable paper bags.
  • Washable & Hygienic: When the microscopic pores of the cloth eventually become clogged with fine dust, you can simply hand-wash the bag in warm water, air-dry it, and restore it to brand-new condition.
  • Exact Drop-In Fitment: Precision-engineered as a flawless replacement specifically for the Polivac Wombat commercial backpack vacuum cleaner.

Technical Specifications & Compatibility:

  • Part Number: PW001
  • Material: Heavy-Duty Reusable Cloth (with Wire structure)
  • Package Quantity: 1x Individual Reusable Bag
  • Function: Acts as the primary inner filter/dust collection bag.
  • Compatible Machine: Specifically suits the Polivac Wombat Backpack Vacuum.

What is the difference between the 'Inner' and 'Outer' bag on the Polivac Wombat?

The Polivac Wombat uses a dual-bag system. This 'Inner' bag (PW001) sits inside the machine and has a wire frame to hold its shape; it catches the actual dirt. The 'Outer' bag (PW002) slips over the outside of the machine's filter cage to provide a final layer of dust protection before the air hits the motor.

Can I use a paper bag inside this cloth bag?

Yes! In fact, it is highly recommended. Using a disposable paper bag inside this heavy-duty cloth bag provides double the filtration, makes emptying the vacuum completely mess-free, and keeps the cloth bag cleaner for longer.

What is the 'Wire' for in this bag?

The wire acts as a skeleton or frame. When the vacuum turns on, massive suction is generated. Without the wire, the cloth bag would collapse inward and choke the motor. The wire holds the bag open, ensuring perfect airflow.

Will this fit my Pacvac Superpro 700 backpack vacuum?

No. The Pacvac Superpro uses a completely different style of cloth bag with a large plastic collar ring. This specific PW001 bag is engineered explicitly for the internal dimensions of the Polivac Wombat.

How does it attach inside the vacuum?

The top of this cloth bag attaches securely to the separate Polivac Wombat Bag Ring (PW005), which then seats down onto the rubber lip of the vacuum canister to create an airtight seal.

Can I wash this cloth bag?

Yes, absolutely. Over time, the microscopic pores in the cloth will become clogged with fine dust, which reduces your vacuum's suction. You should regularly hand-wash the bag in warm water. You MUST let it air-dry completely before putting it back in the vacuum.

Will this fix my vacuum if it has lost suction?

If your vacuum has lost suction, the most common cause is a cloth bag that is completely 'caked' with fine dust, acting like a brick wall. Shaking it out or washing it will usually restore suction instantly.

Will this tear if I vacuum up glass or screws?

Unlike paper bags which burst instantly, the heavy-duty cloth fabric is incredibly tough and highly tear-resistant. It can safely contain sharp debris like broken glass, wood splinters, or nails without bursting.

How do I empty it?

You simply turn off the vacuum, lift the lid, grab the bag ring, and lift the entire cloth bag out. Hold it over a large rubbish bin, turn it upside down, and give it a firm shake to dislodge the dirt.

Why does my vacuum smell bad?

If your vacuum smells like 'wet dog' or stale dust, the cloth bag has likely absorbed moisture and bacteria from food or pet hair. Washing the cloth bag thoroughly with mild detergent will eliminate the foul odor.

Can I use this bag for wet vacuuming?

Absolutely NOT. Cloth bags are strictly for dry dust and debris. Vacuuming water into a cloth bag will instantly turn the dust into thick mud, ruining the bag and permanently destroying your electrical vacuum motor.

Do you offer trade pricing for commercial cleaners?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for commercial cleaning contractors, appliance repair technicians, and facility managers. Contact us to establish your trade account.
