About the Shark HV382

The Shark Rocket HV382 is a lightweight corded stick with a single brush roll in the cleaner head. The brush roll agitates carpet and sweeps hard floors; flattened bristles and wrapped hair are what most owners replace.

Step-by-Step: Replacing the Shark HV382 Brush Roll

1
Power off and unplug
Switch off and unplug the HV382 before working on the head.
2
Open the brush-roll cover
Release the cover/end cap on the underside of the cleaner head.
3
Remove and clear
Lift the roll out and cut away all wound hair from the bar and the housing channel.
4
Fit the new roll
Seat the new bar into its drive and end seats.
5
Close and test
Refit the cover, plug in and confirm the roll spins.

⚠ Common mistakes on the HV382

The HV382 mistake is replacing the roll when it just needs the wound hair cut from the bar and end caps. The second is forcing the cover instead of releasing it correctly.

✓ OEM vs aftermarket for the HV382

A genuine Shark roll guarantees the right bristles and fit; aftermarket bars are cheaper and fine when the listing names HV382 (and the HV300 Rocket family). Clear the housing before fitting a new bar so it runs true.

🔁 How often to replace
