Simplicity and Riccar Nylon...

Product details
Part A328-0100B is a nylon axle washer used across the Riccar and Simplicity upright lines, and Powr-Flite, a fellow Tacony brand, carries the identical washer under its own Riccar Simplicity listing. Mounted where the wheel meets the body, this washer absorbs the sideways push and friction of the spinning wheel, keeping those two harder surfaces from grinding directly against each other. Nylon does that job better than metal here since it glides silently against plastic and never needs a drop of grease.
It is a five-minute swap once the wheel comes off, and most people replace it at the same time as the wheel or the axle pin rather than as a standalone repair, since a washer that has split or gone thin usually shows up as looseness at the wheel or a new noise while it rolls. Because Riccar and Simplicity reuse this hardware across many different upright chassis, do not assume A328-0100B fits by model name alone. Pull up the exploded parts diagram for your specific machine and match the part before you order.
- Material: nylon

Because this washer rarely fails on its own, most people replace it while a wheel or axle pin is already off rather than as a dedicated repair by itself. If you are unsure which axle washer your unit takes, cross-reference A328-0100B against the parts breakdown for your specific model before checkout.
