Review: Quick fix for smoking blender - I ordered this 10 years ago, having had a Vitamix blender for 5 years at the time. I like to be prepared! Anyway, after continued daily use, I finally needed it today. There was an awful smoky burning smell coming from the existing drive socket but with the replacement in place it's all good to go again. It took about 10 minutes to do the job. Note that you need a blob of silicone sealant to finish the job. Review: Blended. - Original part , fits with no issues. ## Features - Check the condition of your socket drive every 3-4 months - Make sure the teeth are sharp and in good working order - Kit includes instructions - Allen wrench included ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0028Y4CVE | | Best Sellers Rank | 75,335 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 594 in Socket Sets | | Bit Compatibilities | Bolt, lag screws | | Brand | Vitamix | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 3,184 Reviews | | Drive System | Square | | Drive system | Square | | Finish | Unfinished | | Finish type | Unfinished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00703113008917 | | Included Components | Drive Socket Kit | | Item Length | 2 Inches | | Item Type Name | Drive Socket Kit | | Item Weight | 0.05 Pounds | | Item length | 2 Inches | | Manufacturer | Vitamix | | Material | Alloy Steel | | Model Number | 891 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Number of pieces | 1 | | Part Number | 891 | | Set Name | Drive Socket Kit | | UPC | 703113008917 252121000920 885415092273 003113008918 252121000197 885277979101 885527867226 088087745106 885554014389 781147160245 885415754638 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vitamix - **Finish type:** Unfinished - **Item length:** 2 Inches - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Number of pieces:** 1 ## Images ![Vitamix Drive Socket Kit, Metal - 891 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51vKwP+Vs6L.jpg) ![Vitamix Drive Socket Kit, Metal - 891 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51SEjM2F-UL.jpg) ![Vitamix Drive Socket Kit, Metal - 891 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Hsj1Ia3GL.jpg) ![Vitamix Drive Socket Kit, Metal - 891 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PLLtZxaPL.jpg) ![Vitamix Drive Socket Kit, Metal - 891 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71S2GCmf7UL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this the one that will fit on {is for} the "Vitamix Model 5000"??** A: I bought this part in 2005, and it fit my 5000 perfectly. After 14 years of heavy use and five kids, it has finally cracked and I just ordered a new one. We love our blender on steroids. **Q: Does this kit include a new screw to hold it in place?** A: Kit includes drive socket, set screw and allen wrench. Basically everything you need. One word of caution the set screw is slanted at an upward angle just like the original and be sure to start the set screw first but not too far just a turn or 2. Also make sure the socket is seated completely I had to slightly tap mine in it kind of snaps in place. **Q: Does this fit 5200** A: This does not fit!!!!!!! And it is not returnable either- do not buy for your 5200!!!!! **Q: hello, does it fit for vm0122 model?** A: My model Vitamix is VM0103 and it did fit mine. I researched it every which way and read on some sites that it will work with my model while other sites said that it will not work. I took a chance since it was not too expensive. It took a lot of nerve on my part to finally try it out and use my machine but when I did I was very happy! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick fix for smoking blender *by R***S on 26 January 2024* I ordered this 10 years ago, having had a Vitamix blender for 5 years at the time.

As soon as I bought this genuine one and fitted it everything was nice and quite. Runs like a sweetie now.. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vitamix Drive Socket Kit , Metal - 891 - Vitamix Wet Blade Assembly, Silver - Joyparts Replacement Parts Retainer Nut and Blade Removal Tool Wrench,Compatible with Vitamix Blenders --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/50795227-vitamix-drive-socket-kit-metal-891](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/50795227-vitamix-drive-socket-kit-metal-891) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-30*
