This is the replacement rear wheel for the Dyson DC07 bagless upright. The rear wheels carry the standing weight of the machine and do all the work when the vacuum is pulled backward over carpet, so they take more abuse than any other moving part outside the cleaner head. A cracked, seized or flat-spotted wheel turns an easy machine into one that drags, judders and pulls off line.
Built for
- DC07 owners whose machine has started to drag, judder or veer to one side
- Wheels seized by hair, thread or carpet fibre wound into the axle
- Machines that have been dropped or dragged up stairs and cracked a wheel
- Anyone refurbishing a used DC07 and putting the rolling gear right
Use cases
Two symptoms send people to this part. The first is a machine that no longer tracks straight: one wheel is turning freely and the other is not, so every backward pull steers the vacuum off line. The second is noise and marking - a wheel that has cracked or lost its tread drops the body closer to the floor and starts scuffing hard flooring. Both are worth fixing early, because a collapsed wheel puts load on the housing around it.

Fits
Distributors list this rear wheel for the Dyson DC07 bagless upright. Related DC07 rolling hardware, such as the rear wheel hub cap, is sold under its own part number and some hub caps are cross-listed to the DC14, DC17, DC27, DC28 and DC33. That cross-listing applies to the hub cap, not automatically to the wheel, so check the part against your own machine before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
My DC07 pulls to one side. Is a rear wheel the cause?
It is the most common cause. Tip the machine and spin each rear wheel by hand. If one turns freely and the other binds or is cracked, that is what is steering the vacuum off line.
Is the hub cap included?
No. Distributors list the DC07 rear wheel hub cap as a separate part with its own number. Order it separately if yours is missing or damaged.
My wheel is stiff rather than broken. Do I need a new one?
Not necessarily. Cut away hair and carpet thread wound into the axle first and re-check. If the wheel still binds, or the plastic is cracked or flat-spotted, replace it.
Should I replace both rear wheels at once?
It is worth considering on a high-hour machine. Both wheels have seen the same duty, and a new wheel paired with a badly worn one can still track unevenly.
Will this fit a DC14 or DC33?
Treat that as unconfirmed. Some DC07 rolling hardware, notably the hub cap, is cross-listed to later models, but that does not automatically extend to the wheel. Order by your own model number.
