As per an earlier review, I too have a 16 gallon Craftsman shop vac that utilizes a "red-stripe" filter. The vac is about 2 + years old so I was probably due for new filter. Even though the measurements of this replacement filter are slightly different than the Craftsman original filter, this replacement fit just fine, but did require that I use the original cap from the old filter instead of the one provided so it could be secured the the appropriate filter location on the vacuum. No problem - it fit just fine. I am very happy with this product and would definitely buy one again versus paying an outrageous amount to buy one from Sears.

This fits "OLDER" model Ridgid Vac's ( circa 1999). I had a hard time finding one locally so I checked Amazon and happened across this filter. Perfect fit.



I have noticed most folks that give negative reviews really don't do the proper research to actually understand what they are buying and end up blaming the site or seller for their own ignorance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fits Craftsman 16 gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum, January 20, 2011

I have a Craftsman, 16 gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum. It came with a flexible filter that's open on both top and bottom. A metal cap with a hole drilled through the center and a plastic nut also came with the unit. This filter slides over a plastic frame inside the vacuum designed to keep it in place. The metal cap secures the bottom of the filter and the hole fits over a threaded knob on the plastic frame. The nut secures this in place. That's how the original filter is used.

The replacement filter is open on one end, but already has a metal cap on the bottom. However, there's no hole in the middle. In addition, the new filter is longer than the original one from Sears.

At first I thought I'd need to drill a hole in the new filter so it could fit over the threaded knob on the vacuum. But it turns out the replacement filter fits snugly over the plastic frame and stays in place once it is pushed all the way on. Plus, since the new filter is longer than the original, the metal cap doesn't need a hole to fit over the threaded knob and remains secure without the plastic nut.

So, if you have a Craftsman Wet/Dry vacuum these reasonably priced replacement filters can work for you.
