Part of the NXT accessory swap & lock attachment system - an upgraded ecosystem of customizable wet dry vac accessory tools with swappable shoes. The NXT Dual utility nozzle fits 1-7/8 in. and 2-1/2 in. hoses and wands, so you can use it with most RIDGID shop vacs. The utility nozzle cleans debris on medium surface areas in your home, garage, basement, and workshop.

The utility nozzle has an improved rocking design for better debris pickup of small pebbles, dust, leaves, and more. Pair with the RIDGID NXT utility nozzle shoe kit (SK0900, sold separately) to suit your needs. Attach a shoe by placing one at a 45-degree angle against the nozzle and click to lock in place. RIDGID NXT Dual accessories are versatile and designed for general-purpose cleaning, improved productivity with wide-range compatibility.

    Nice attachment head
    We had the older version of this before they made it locking. In size, they are near identical, the older version is more a thin trapezoidish shape than this squared corner, rectangular style. We have a 16gallon wet/dry Ridgid, this will fit on the nozzle/hose but doesn’t lock on. It works as intended, we use this head to suck up piles of sawdust and smaller wood chips pieces, and it works great for this application. It’s a great head for piles of differing debris. It also fits on our NXT generation battery operated Ridgid vacuum nozzle/hose (it was intended for) and locks on. We recommend.

    Really love these new attachments from rigid! The brush attachment the can go over this attachment is really useful for my epoxy garage floors to prevent scratching. I also like the size of this smaller head vs the bigger wide brush attachment as it has much better suction.

    You NEED this!
    One little tool you never new you needed so much. I picked this up for a very specific project that required a smaller nozzle for my Rigid shop vac. What I found was that I use this little fitting like seventy percent of the time instead of my eight inch sweeper. This accessory will amaze you with its versatility and range of uses. The locking collar is a long needed improvement that stops the annoying twist and drop. Helpful Hint: Superglue some rare earth magnets to the front face for magnetic attachment to any tool where you need dust control.

    Floor nozzle for shop vacuum
    This floor nozzle attachment for my older Ryobi shop vacuum is great! The end of the nozzle clicks right into the tab at the end of my extension wand. Because it snaps in, the nozzle attaches securely so it won't slide off when you're using it. The nozzle is a much better way to vacuum a flat surface than using the open end of the hose or extension wand. It even looks good and is a nice upgrade to my Ryobi shop vacuum.

    I just got this shop nozzle.
    I just got this rigid Shop vacuum nozzle. and like I expected, it works great. I love the locking system. It has on it. It fits on my older rigid Shop vacuum hoses The flexible hose, and the straight hose. I mainly use this connection to pick up the sawdust in my shop. With the locking system it has , it doesn’t get bumped off as easy the ones without it . I took more pictures of the locking system. It has on these because you know how good the ridge vacuum works.

    Can't Go Wrong with Ridgid!
    This nozzle is just slightly smaller than my original nozzle that has finally gotten worn out flat. I like the new locking mechanism which appears to be slightly easier to align and lock than the previous version. Both short sides of the nozzle are curved, which helps keep the nozzle from suctioning to a smooth floor surface. I've been using Ridgid tools and items for many years, and they haven't disappointed!

    Very nice, clean Rigid Shop Vac nozzle attachment
    I tried this Rigid shop vacuum nozzle attachment this weekend in my barn. It locks in quite nicely, in fact better than the one that came with our shop vacuum. Cleans up bits of hay and dirt on the barn floor easily. It stays on the hose firmly and is easy to attach and detach from the hose or the long handled extension. It is very easy to clean too.

    great shop vac attachment for general use
    This is a great shop vac attachment for general use. Suction will depend on your vacuum, but it works great with it's matching Ridgid vac. I do not have the locking hose attachments yet so I cannot comment on that feature, but it's nice to know it works regardless of the hose. Ridgid is my go-to brand for power tools because of their quality and lifetime LSA warranty. I'm happy to add this to my arsenal.

    NXT Dual Locking Utility Nozzle Vacuum Accessory
    The RIDGID 1-7/8 in. to 2-1/2 in. NXT Dual Locking Utility Nozzle Vacuum Accessory for Wet Dry Vacs arrived in very good time and was well packaged. This is a new product to the USA, very cool. It is cleverly designed to work with both standard hose sizes in the RIDGID shopvac lineup. So what this means, is that whichever shopvac I have out at the moment, the big one or the smaller one, this nozzle fits. I am impressed, that certainly makes life easier. Good job.

    Rigid vacuum attachment
    This is a handy. How little attachment networks great with my rigid wet vac. Was very easy to install. It only takes a minute to install or remove. You just remove it from its package. Push it onto the hose and twist to lock. It is well made and very solid. It should last a long time and do the job well. It is a little smaller than might other attachments.So it makes it easier to get into tight places for cleaning. If you have a rigid vacuum, this would be a very handy edition to your vacuum.
