A bare wet/dry vacuum is a tank and a motor until you put tools on it. This is the factory Koblenz accessory kit that turns an AI-series industrial vacuum into a working machine, and it is the part number most buyers need alongside a machine-only unit such as the AI-1660P N. It is also what a supervisor orders when the crew has lost the crevice tool, cracked a wand, or worn the lip off the squeegee tool halfway through a wet season.
The kit covers both sides of the job. Dry pickup gets a hard floor tool, a carpet tool, a dusting tool and a crevice tool; wet pickup gets the squeegee floor tool. The 10-foot hose and two wands are common to both.
Built for
- Outfitting a machine-only vacuum. Machine-only part numbers are sold bare so fleet buyers are not paying twice for accessories. This kit is the companion purchase that makes a first machine usable out of the crate.
- Replacing worn or missing attachments. Squeegee lips wear, wands get stepped on and crevice tools disappear. Buying the complete kit is often the shorter path than chasing four individual part numbers.
- Keeping a spare set on the truck. Restoration and BSC crews that run several machines commonly stock a second kit so a damaged tool never idles a vacuum mid-route.
Fit matters more than it looks like it should. The hose in this kit is the 1-1/2 inch diameter the AI-series machines are built around, and generic hardware-store attachments in 1-1/4 inch or 2-1/2 inch sizes will either leak air at the cuff or refuse to seat at all. Air leaked at a connection is water lift you paid for and did not get, which is why crews that try to mix fitments usually come back to the factory kit.
The two-wand design also earns its keep. Run both wands for full-height floor work and drop to one when you are working a stairwell, a vehicle interior or under fixed shelving where a full-length wand cannot get an angle.

Frequently asked questions
Which vacuums does this kit fit?
It is the factory accessory kit for Koblenz AI-series industrial wet/dry vacuums, including the AI-1660P N and AI-1960P N, which use a 1-1/2 inch hose connection.
What exactly is included?
A 10-foot 1-1/2 inch hose, two plastic wands, a carpet tool, a hard floor tool, a squeegee floor tool, a dusting tool and a crevice tool.
Do I need this if I bought a machine-only vacuum?
Yes. Machine-only part numbers ship without any accessories, so a hose and tools have to be purchased separately.
Can I use a standard shop vacuum hose instead?
It is not recommended. Common consumer hose sizes are 1-1/4 inch or 2-1/2 inch and will not seat correctly on a 1-1/2 inch connection, which leaks air and reduces water lift.
Is the squeegee tool for wet pickup only?
The squeegee floor tool is intended for liquid recovery. Use the hard floor and carpet tools for dry pickup.
