Hence, choosing the right drain cleaner will save you valuable time and cost. There are many various types of drain cleaners available on the market which are ideal for both commercial and residential use. In this article, we will recommend some of the RIDGID’s range of drain cleaning solutions for commercial as well as residential uses.
Drain Cleaners for Commercial Use:
1. FlexShaft Machine

These machines can be operated simply by a cordless power drill (any branded power drill, sold separately), providing a truly portable solution that can be used anywhere on the jobsite. To clear all the circumference of the pipe quickly and efficiently, the machines employ powerful chain knockers to expand their diameter to fit the pipe. An inspection camera can also be used on these FlexShaft Machines to oversee the entire cleaning process and inspect the results afterward. FlexShaft Machines are available in two models: K9-204, a large and durable FlexShaft Machine that can be used for 2”- 4” large pipelines; The K9-102, a lightweight and portable FlexShaft Machine that can be used for 1-1/4” – 2” pipeline. |

The cable features a quick-change coupling system that allows quick connection and disconnection of tools such as the cable cutter heads. The machine also features an AUTOFEED version that allows the cable to be automatically fed and removed from the drum. A manual cable feeding option is also available at a lower cost.
