RIDGID 16 Gallon 6.5 Peak HP Motor-On-Bottom Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum with Fine Dust Filter, Locking Hose and Accessories #MOB1600

OVERVIEW

RIDGID wet/dry vacs took an innovative approach to motor placements by designing a vacuum with the motor on the bottom – the RIDGID 16 Gallon Motor-On-Bottom Wet/Dry Vacuum. Not only does the design offer a modern, rugged look but the motor on the bottom was made with convenience in mind. With the motor untethered from the drum, emptying the drum contents is lighter and quicker, filter access is easier and a lower center of gravity provides stability. The 16 gallon shop vacuum also boasts incredible performance with noise reduction and unmatched mobility for pro, contractor and industrial use. The locking accessories, which includes hoses, wands and specialized attachments, connects with locking tabs to tightly attach parts for uninterrupted cleaning. Just click and go to take on a project mess anywhere. Plus, the motor-on-bottom shop vac features quieter operation with a Fine Dust Qwik Lock filter, a 7 ft. locking hose, top handle, a cord hanger, heavy-duty 2-piece drum construction and a quick-release handle. Pro Tip: Add a RIDGID filter (VF5000 – sold separately) to a RIDGID shop vac to maintain the power of the vac and extend vacuum life. Add a RIDGID dust bag (VF3502 – sold separately) to the shop vacuum to help keep the wet/dry vac drum clean and for quick pickups.
