Kenmore Filter Cover Assembly x series It is the flexible attachmentThis replacement Kenmore filter cover assembly (Part #KC41KDENZV04) fits compatible Kenmore vacuums and arrives as a complete cover unit. It caps the filter compartment and presses the filter media against its seat to keep the air path sealed. Cracks, a broken latch, or missing clips let the assembly loosen, and a loose cover allows dust to escape the filter bay and reduce suction. A fresh assembly restores a secure closure and proper filtration.
