Ridgid Corded Drills: Models, Specs, and Pricing

Ridgid's corded drill selection at Home Depot is limited since most of their focus has shifted to the 18V Octane cordless platform. The R7111 is the standout corded model, a 1/2-inch spade-handle mud mixer drill designed for heavy mixing and large-diameter boring. It's a specialty tool, not a general-purpose drill.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Ridgid LSA cover corded tools?

Yes. The Lifetime Service Agreement covers both corded and cordless Ridgid tools sold at Home Depot. Register at ridgid.com within 90 days of purchase with your receipt.

Can I use the R7111 as a regular drill?

Technically yes, but it's not designed for it. The spade handle and low max RPM (550) make it slow and awkward for standard drilling. It's built for high-torque mixing and boring. For general drilling, buy a standard drill and use the R7111 for what it's designed for.

Specs come from manufacturer data sheets. Prices were verified at Home Depot, Lowe's, and Amazon in April 2026. We don't run a testing lab. All claims trace back to publicly available data. Full methodology.
