The Worx TriVac WG512
- Power: The Worx TriVac WG512 can force 600 cubic feet of air per minute (CFM) from its nozzle at a maximum speed of 75 MPH.
- Power delivery: As it is a corded model, the blower needs to be plugged in to a power source in order for the 12 Amp motor to operate. Please note that some manufacturers don’t include the cord with the unit. If this is the case, or if you’re looking to buy a backup, please use our gauge calculator to ensure you’re buying the right cord for your blower.
- Cord Lock Mechanism: This unit has a handy 'cord lock' feature, which prevents it from being unplugged during use.

- Speed Settings: Featuring 2 speed settings, the TriVac WG512 offers users flexibility in adjusting airflow.
- Vacuum: As a blower vac, the TriVac WG512 handily vacuums unwanted material into a storage bag for easy disposal (11.2 gallon bag included).
- Mulching: Its impressive mulching ratio of 16:1 allows this mulcher to compress 16 bags of leaves and debris into just one bag of mulch. The unit uses a metal impeller.
- Noise: The TriVac WG512's noise level is rated at 79 dB, which is standard for electric handheld blowers.
- TriVac: This Worx blower is called a TriVac, which is one of the names Worx gives to its power tools that function as a 3-in-1 leaf blower, vacuum, and mulcher.

Questions & Answers
How come the CFM is higher than most models but the blowing speed is so low? (Asked June 11, 2020)
CFM and MPH are 2 really different metrics. CFM is pretty much fixed, while MPH can be influenced by the diameter of the output. Think about blowing through a straw or blowing with your mouth wide open. An approximate same volume/amount of air (CFM) will exit your mouth in both cases, but that air will exit at higher speed through the straw (because the output diameter is lower). Read our article dedicated to CFM and MPH to learn more.
