Description
Zoom on the Worx TriVac WG512
The Worx TriVac WG512 is a corded electric handheld blower that is a good match for homeowners with a small outdoor space such as a patio, driveway, or yard under about a quarter acre.
It is rated for a max air volume of 600 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 75 MPH. In practice, it can shift small amounts of leaves and light debris on yard sections, patios, or walkways.
Equipped with a 12-amp motor, this corded blower can operate indefinitely while connected to electricity, but the cord length defines the area it can reach. Keep in mind that the power cord may not be included with the blower. If you require one, or want a spare, use our gauge calculator to determine the correct cord specifications. A cord lock ensures the TriVac WG512 stays connected during operation, minimizing accidental disconnections.
Users can customize airflow intensity with the 2 speed settings of the Worx TriVac WG512, offering power versatility for any job.
This blower weighs 8.6 lbs and its handheld form makes one-handed operation straightforward.
Not only a blower, the TriVac WG512 also functions as a leaf vacuum, letting you gather leaves effortlessly (11.2 gallon bag included). While vacuuming, the mulching ratio of 16:1 enables the unit to transform 16 bags of waste into one bag of mulch. The unit uses a metal impeller.

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.
