Ridgid VF-4000 Standard Vacuum Paper Filter ( 72947 )

HIGHLIGHTS:

The RIDGID VF4000 is the essential 1-layer replacement filter designed for high-efficiency daily cleanup. Engineered for versatility, this standard paper filter is optimized to capture everyday dirt and debris, such as sawdust from the workshop or typical grime found in basements, garages, and vehicles. Its 1-layer pleated design provides a large surface area for maximum airflow and reliable filtration performance.

Maintenance is effortless thanks to the patented Qwik Lock™ Filter Fastening System. This innovative design allows the filter to simply snap on or off the vacuum without the need for tools or hardware, making cleaning and replacement faster than ever. For added value and longevity, the filter media is washable and reusable—simply rinse with water and dry completely to restore its suction power.

It is fully compatible with RIDGID 6 Gallon, 12 Gallon, and 16 Gallon models, as well as most other RIDGID wet/dry vacuums ranging from 5 to 20 gallons.
