SEBO Bag Housing Locking Ca...

Product details
SEBO 5722SG is the yellow locking catch for the bag compartment, listed for the AUTOMATIC X4 and the AUTOMATIC X5. It appears at item 31 on the exploded view of these two uprights, next to the locking rod and return spring that operate with it, and its whole purpose is to keep the bag door pulled tight while the machine runs.
Over a set of bags that door gets opened and closed a few hundred times, and every cycle passes through this one catch. Age takes it two ways. The engagement hook wears down, or the sprung arm gives up its tension, and from then on the door either releases itself unexpectedly or never quite pulls level onto front cover seal 5454. Both endings share a consequence worth understanding: the compartment starts drawing air in around the edge of the door instead of through the hose, and the missing airflow reads as weak pickup at the floor with nothing obviously wrong at the machine. A new catch drops into the original mounting, and the way to confirm the repair is by feel — a positive click, then a door that lies flush the whole way round.

Of all the finishes this latch was produced in, yellow is the one that shows. A catch in another colour would hold the door perfectly well, but it will announce itself against yellow mouldings, which is reason enough to match. Since the bag is generally out while the work is done, filter bag pack 5093AM and service box 5828AM are natural additions to the same order. Search phrasing that lands here runs from the number itself to a SEBO yellow bag housing catch or an AUTOMATIC X5 bag door latch. Ships in 2–5 business days.
