Replacement glide for the Westpak AW57 carpet wand, 2 inch tube with a 14 inch (35.5 cm), 4-jet S-bend head. Made by Westpak.
The 2 x 14 inch AW57 wand is no longer listed on our store. This glide is for owners of existing wands.
What a Glide Does
A glide fits over the wand head so the head slides across the carpet instead of dragging on it. The wand pushes and pulls more easily, the edges of the head are kept off the pile, and the head itself is protected from wear. Most operators notice it most on long days and on dense or cut-pile carpet, where an unglided head grabs.
Important: Match the Glide to Your Wand
This glide is made for the 2 x 14 inch AW57. CCW also lists a glide for the other AW57 size, and they are not interchangeable:
- This glide: Westpak AW57 wand, 2 x 14 inch, 4 jet (SKU AW57-2X14)
- Glide for the Westpak AW57 1.5 x 12 inch low-profile wand (SKU AW57-1.5X12-GLIDE)
Measure the head width before ordering: the 1.5 x 12 inch AW57 has a 30.5 cm (12 inch) head, the 2 x 14 inch a 35.5 cm (14 inch) head. Glides made for the 2-jet CMP AW29 are not interchangeable with either AW57.
Ordered In for You
This glide is not held in stock. We order it in when you place your order, so ask us for the current lead time if you need it by a set date.
Fitting and Care
- Fit the glide to a clean, dry head so debris is not trapped between glide and head.
- Check it sits evenly across the full width before the first job. A glide that rides high at one end changes how the head meets the carpet.
- Rinse it with the wand at the end of the day. Built-up residue on the glide drags just like an unglided head.
- Replace it when the underside is worn through, cracked or no longer sits flat.
