Flex shaft

Flex shaft drain cleaning is a technique used to remove blockages and debris from pipes and drains using a flexible shaft with a rotating cutting head. It is an effective method for tackling tough clogs and obstructions.

How Does Flex Shaft Drain Cleaning Work?

In flex shaft drain cleaning, a flexible cable, commonly referred to as a “snake,” is inserted into the pipe or drain. The cable is typically made of high-strength steel and has a flexible yet sturdy construction. It is connected to a motorized machine that rotates the cable and the cutting head at high speeds.
