DeWalt 1004771-43 — genuine DeWalt replacement latch for DXV-series wet / dry vacuums. This snap-style latch secures the vacuum canister/lid and replaces worn or broken closure hardware so the tank seals and the vacuum operates normally.

Compatibility: commonly listed for DXV20S ,  DXV30SA , DXV30SPTA ,  DXV38S , DXV38SC and DXV50SPTA. Check the part reference on your parts diagram to confirm fit for your exact model.

What you’ll get: the original DeWalt-numbered latch (1004771-43) manufactured to the same fit and form as the factory part — a small snap / clip replacement intended to press into the housing where the lid locks. It’s a straightforward swap if your old latch has broken; remove the damaged snap and press the new latch into the same location until it seats.

If your model number matches one of the DXV listings above, this part is the direct DeWalt replacement to restore a secure lid connection and get the vacuum back in service.
