The Versamatic is a workhorse, and it stays one as long as the bag is right. This 10 pack of genuine Windsor three-layer filter bags - part 8.600-046.0, previously numbered 2003 - is the correct bag for Versamatic VSE, VS14 and VS18 uprights. Three-layer media holds fine dust that a single-ply bag lets through, which keeps exhaust air cleaner in occupied buildings and keeps grit out of the motor path.
Built for
Janitorial contractors and in-house building crews running Windsor Versamatic uprights, plus facilities using the compatible Betco SM1400T and Allstar Javelin 14 and 18 machines.
Use Cases
- Nightly office, school and healthcare vacuuming where exhaust dust is noticed
- Route work where a fast, clean bag change matters more than saving a few cents per bag
- Maintaining suction on carpet with heavy grit and fine soil loads
- Stocking a supply closet so a full bag never interrupts a shift
- Standardizing bag stock across Versamatic, Betco and Allstar machines

Frequently asked questions
Will these fit a Versamatic Plus or a Windsor Sensor?
No. This bag fits the Versamatic VSE, VS14 and VS18 family. The Versamatic Plus and the Sensor use a different bag, part 8.600-050.0. Ordering by machine name alone is the most common mix-up on these two.
How many bags come in the pack?
Ten bags per pack.
Is 2003 the same as 8.600-046.0?
Yes. Windsor renumbered the part; 2003 is the older reference and 8.600-046.0 is the current one for the same bag.
What does a three-layer bag get me over a cheap single-ply?
More fine-dust capture and more resistance to bursting. In occupied buildings that means less visible dust at the exhaust, and for the machine it means less fine grit reaching the motor.
Do these fit any non-Windsor machines?
Yes. The same bag is used by the Betco SM1400T and the Allstar Javelin 14 and 18, which lets a mixed fleet stock one bag.
