6-gallon cordless wet/dry vacuum
The MILWAUKEE M18 FUEL 6 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum brings cordless cleanup to job sites and workshops. It runs on M18 REDLITHIUM battery packs for mobility without a power cord. The POWERSTATE brushless motor delivers suction that outperforms 3.5 peak HP corded vacuums. It handles wet spills and dry debris such as drywall dust and metal shavings.
Sustained cleaning on MAX POWER MODE
MAX POWER MODE delivers up to 31 minutes of continuous cleaning time per charge. The brushless motor maintains consistent suction through heavy debris without the fade common in universal motors. Reinforced casters and crush-resistant hose construction survive daily impacts that damage standard wheels and hoses. Durability at touchpoints keeps the vacuum running longer under rough conditions.
M18 system flexibility and battery limits
Interchangeable motor heads, tanks, and carts attach via a foot pedal to change capacity or mobility for different tasks. The vacuum is part of the M18 cordless ecosystem, so it shares batteries with other M18 tools. Runtime depends on the battery pack used and the selected power mode. Users needing longer continuous operation must plan for additional charged packs.
