The Shop-Vac 12 gal 5.5 peak hp wet/dry utility vacuum features the SVX2 motor technology. This new motor has more power and longer motor life when compared to the Shop-Vac standard 5.5 peak hp motor. Use this vacuum to clean up your workspace, basement or garage. The hose attaches to the rear blower port allowing you to blow the dirt out of hard to reach places.

*Tank capacity refers to actual tank volume, and does not reflect capacity available during operation. **"Peak Horsepower" (PHP) is a term used in the wet-dry vacuum industry for consumer comparison purposes. It does not denote the operational horsepower of a wet-dry vacuum but rather the horsepower output of a motor, including the motor's inertial contribution, achieved in laboratory testing. In actual use, Shop-Vac motors do not operate at the peak horsepower shown.
