The Pro-Ject VC-S Self-Adhesive Strip Grey is a genuine replacement velvet strip for the full-size vacuum arm on Pro-Ject VC-S record cleaning machines. The vacuum arm relies on a self-adhesive velvet strip to create a tight seal across the record groove area, drawing dissolved debris away from the vinyl surface as the machine rotates the record. Over time the velvet pile compresses and wears, reducing suction efficiency and cleaning performance.
This grey strip is the thicker-profile replacement designed primarily for the VC-S MK II, and is compatible with all VC-S models. It is a simple peel-and-apply consumable: remove the worn strip from the arm, clean the surface, and press on a fresh one. Keeping a spare strip to hand ensures your VC-S is always ready to deliver a thorough clean.
Note: this strip is for the standard full-size (12-inch) VC-S vacuum arm. It is not compatible with the shorter arm supplied with the VC 7-inch Kit, which requires its own dedicated replacement strips.
