The industry’s most powerful wet/dry vacs are now giving pros more to love: the Ridgid® NXT line of 6-, 12-, 14- and 16-gallon models recently underwent an ergonomic makeover, with enhanced features designed to make jobsite cleanup even easier.
Redesigned features include a front-to-back top carry handle for more comfortable grab-and-go maneuverability. The vacs have added comfort-grip side handles for extra ease in lifting, carrying or emptying the vac. A new drum key and side latches that create a tighter lid-to-drum seal to securely keep dirt, dust and debris inside the vac. A larger on/off switch allows for easier operation with gloved hands. The built-in cord wrap helps to more neatly store the cord for transport.
All of the vacs also include a new ultra-flexible locking hose that won’t pull loose and is 4x more durable than a standard hose. The 12-, 14- and 16-gallon models include an updated utility nozzle that delivers a 77% increase in pickup power.
Each NXT Vac is still backed by the RIDGID Full Lifetime Warranty and comes with popular industry-leading features, like Scroll Noise Reduction®, a patented sound reduction technology that provides quiet operation by precisely controlling the flow of air through the vac. The QwikLock® Filter Fastening System allows for quick and easy filter installation and removal without tools or fasteners. The 12, 14 and 16 gallon NXT vacs are also OSHA/HEPA compliant when used as a system with Ridgid VF6500RT OSHA Table 1 and HEPA Compatible Filtration Kits.
