Milwaukee® Introduces M18 FUEL™ 4-Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum with PACKOUT™ Compatibility and VACLINK™ Wireless Dust Control
MILWAUKEE, WI – Milwaukee Tool continues to evolve jobsite cleanup performance and productivity with the introduction of their M18 FUEL™ 4 Gallon Wet/Dry vacuum with PACKOUT™ compatibility and VACLINK™. Designed for the jobsite, the new vacuum delivers increased suction, streamlined debris disposal, and enhanced accessibility.
The M18 FUEL™ 4 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum delivers more suction and increased cleaning capability through Milwaukee’s POWERSTATE™ brushless motor and REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence. The system produces 70 CFM and 60 inches of suction, providing the performance needed to tackle demanding cleanup applications. When paired with the M18™ REDLITHIUM™ FORGE™ HD12.0 battery pack, the vacuum delivers up to 47 minutes of runtime in max run-time mode and up to 32 minutes in max power mode on a single charge.
Designed to improve workflow on the jobsite, the vacuum features a removable sliding tank, which enables fast, convenient debris disposal without removing the unit from a PACKOUT™ stack. This design minimizes downtime and eliminates the inconvenience commonly associated with traditional wet/dry vacuums. All key controls and features are accessible from outside the tool, creating a more efficient and user-friendly experience.
This new vacuum also features VACLINK™ Wireless Dust Control, enabling seamless communication between compatible tools and vacuums. With the included VACLINK™ Wireless Dust Control remote, users can activate the vacuum directly from the hose end, reducing wasted runtime and improving cleanup efficiency.
Milwaukee is committed to improving productivity by providing performance-driven and trade-focused solutions, so users can perform an entire day's work on one battery system. The M18™ FUEL™ 4 Gallon Wet/Dry vacuum with PACKOUT™ compatibility and VACLINK™ is fully compatible with the entire M18™ line, now offering more than 300 solutions.
M18 FUEL™ is engineered for the most demanding tradesmen in the world. Delivering unrivaled performance, all M18 FUEL™ products feature three Milwaukee®-exclusive innovations—The POWERSTATE™ Brushless Motor, REDLITHIUM™ Battery Pack and REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence Hardware and Software—that deliver unmatched power, run-time and durability on the jobsite. Simply put, M18 FUEL™ tools are the most powerful 18V cordless tools in their class.
