iRobot RCA-Y1 – Plus.Parts® Replacement Rubber Brush Set

The iRobot RCA-Y1 is built on iRobot’s Roomba Combo platform, a family of robots that combines vacuum and mop capability in a single device designed for homes with a mix of hard floors and carpet. The dual rubber brush system is central to how Roomba Combo robots clean: two interlocking rollers, shaped to flex and counter-rotate, pull debris up from floor level while the inward-facing angle keeps material moving toward the suction port rather than pushing it aside. It is a design that works well on low-pile carpet and hard surfaces alike, and it handles pet hair with less tangle than bristle brushes because the smooth rubber surface does not catch fibres in the same way. Over time, however, the rubber compound changes: the rollers harden from heat exposure and floor friction, the flex that allows them to stay in contact with irregular surfaces reduces, and the pickup efficiency on textured floors drops before the brushes visually appear worn.

This replacement set provides a new pair of dual multi-surface rubber brushes, containing Plus.Parts® components designed as a direct-fit alternative to the original iRobot Roomba Combo brushes. The brushes fit the RCA-Y1’s roller housing without modification, and the installation is the same hands-on swap as the original brushes, simple and straightforward to confirm. A fresh pair restores the floor-contact flexibility and counter-rotation efficiency that the dual-brush design depends on.

The rubber compound in this pair is formulated to stay flexible through a full replacement interval. Any question about compatibility or your order goes to a real person on the team who will respond directly.
