A vacuum motor is a wear part, and on a machine that runs every shift it is the component most likely to end a machine life prematurely if a replacement is hard to source. The Sandia 10-0346-COM is the genuine Sandia D.P. series replacement vacuum motor, supplied complete with its gasket. Building service contractors and in-house maintenance departments order it when suction has dropped off, when the motor has become loud or hot, or when carbon brushes have simply reached the end of a long service life.
Best for these jobs
- Repowering a Sandia D.P. machine that has lost suction rather than replacing the whole unit.
- Planned rebuilds where the motor is swapped alongside filters and gaskets on a service interval.
- Fleet maintenance shops that keep motors on the shelf to avoid downtime on a route.
- Restoring a used machine to full airflow before it goes back into service.

The warranty does not cover damage from improper or missing maintenance, misapplication, misuse, tampering, or substitution of provided parts.
Frequently asked questions
What does D.P. mean in the Sandia part name?
D.P. is Sandia shorthand for the dual purpose machine line, which includes equipment such as the D-P Hipster hip vacuum. Because Sandia has built several generations of these machines, we recommend confirming the part against your machine model and serial number before ordering.
Does the motor include a gasket?
Yes. The COM suffix means the motor is supplied complete with its gasket. That gasket matters, because a leaking motor-to-housing seal loses suction even when the motor itself is perfect.
How can I be sure this is the right motor for my machine?
Send us the model number and serial number from the machine data plate and we will check it against the Sandia parts list for your unit before the order ships.
Is a drop in suction always the motor?
No, and it pays to check the easy causes first. A full or unsealed filter bag, a cracked hose, a loose cuff or a worn lid gasket will all imitate a failing motor. If the machine still will not build lift with the inlet sealed, the motor is the likely cause.
What warranty covers this part?
Sandia publishes a 2-year warranty on vacuum motors, subject to the exclusions listed in the warranty section above.
Discount Cleaning Products is an authorized Sandia dealer, and we stock genuine Sandia OEM parts rather than look-alike substitutes, so the fit, the electrical rating and the warranty all stay intact. Our US-based team works with these machines every day and can help you match a part number to your model and serial number before you order. If you are rebuilding a machine, ask us about the related wear items that are usually worth replacing at the same time.
