In July I started looking for a replacement filter for my ShopVac portable Wet/Dry 15 litre vacuum cleaner, which I bought at Sears in Canada. Three months later, I am still looking. Sears has not been any help at all. The Model no. shown on my manual is 113.296010C and the part number is 9-97210 (Purple Stripe) paper filter. The numbers may be different for you, but the pictures of model no. 9-17776 very closely resemble my shopvac.
U can try Sears Canada part nr 090 397 311 10, but I coulkd not obtain it in the store in Kelowna.
But, found that the RIDGID VF3500 filter fits and works great!! Much more freely available as well at Home Depot etc.
I use knee high panty hose! I buy them by the cheap box and then just peel them off and throw them away when they get too nasty! I have found filters at Sears previous to my cheap trick though! :)
I just seen where you can order filters from shopvac Canada http://www.shopvac.ca/ If you still can't find it then contact them; I'm sure they will be able to help.

In a pinch a discarded flannel pajama sleeve can be employed as a filter on your shop-vac. grab up an end and twist it together and fasten with a piece of wire. the open part slips over the cage of the vacuum and fastens with a large flat rubber band. I'll try to find a source for a filter for you and will get back to you.
go to this site: look in their index for shop vac I'm sure you'll find something for your vacuum. http://www.totalvac.com/parts
