Milwaukee Foam Wet Filter for M12 Vacuum
Model Number: 49-90-2015
The Milwaukee 49-90-2015 is a genuine OEM Foam Wet Filter for compatible Milwaukee M12 Vacuums — the replacement foam filter element that enables wet pick-up operation by protecting the motor from liquid ingestion during wet vacuuming tasks. The foam wet filter replaces the standard dry cartridge filter during liquid pick-up operations — while the dry filter captures fine dust, it would become saturated and block airflow when used for liquid pick-up, potentially allowing liquid to reach the motor. The foam wet filter allows liquids to pass through for collection in the vacuum tank while physically blocking liquid droplets from the airflow path that leads to the motor. Switching to the foam wet filter when transitioning from dry to wet vacuuming is essential for protecting the vacuum's motor from liquid damage during wet pick-up tasks including water, coolant, and other non-flammable liquids.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM foam wet filter ensures the correct foam density, dimensional fit, and sealing interface for the specific Milwaukee M12 vacuum model — a foam filter with incorrect dimensions would not seal correctly in the filter housing or would allow liquid bypass to the motor. Replace the foam wet filter when it is torn, deteriorated, or no longer provides an effective seal in the vacuum housing. Always verify your specific Milwaukee M12 vacuum model and serial number at milwaukeetool.com before ordering replacement filter components.
