16 Gallon 5.0 Peak HP NXT Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum with Filter, Locking Hose and Accessories

HD1640

The RIDGID 16 Gallon 5.0 Peak Horsepower Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum is for large, heavy-duty projects and offers maximum capacity while resisting dents, rust, and corrosion. This vac includes shop vac attachments to customize to the job - 2 extension wands to extend reach and utility nozzle to clean large areas. These attachments are 2-1/2 in. diameter and features locking technology for a snug fit while cleaning. Onboard storage provides spots for the 20 ft. cord and the included attachments while the comfort grip handles help carry drum for easy lifting. Also, this wet dry vac can quickly transform into a blower by using the hose in the blower port - perfect for removing leaves and other outdoor material from walkways, porches, and decks. When picking up waterborne debris, the built-in drain at the bottom easily dispels the liquid so no lifting the filled vac. Included standard filter (VF4000) captures general dust and debris. Pro Tip: RIDGID recommends changing filter frequently to maintain the power of the vac and extend vacuum life - other filtration types sold separately. Add a dust collection bag (sold separately) to the vac to help with quick cleanup and disposal.
