GENERAL PIPE CLEANERS introduces the Super-Vee® power drain cleaning machine for top plumbing and drain cleaning pros. Their “go-to” machine for small line stoppages. The easy-to-use, hand-held Super-Vee easily unclogs sink, shower, toilet, and laundry lines up to 3” in diameter. It’s so rugged that many last for 10, 20, or even 30 years without replacement. It’s that reliable. The chuck also automatically adjusts to 1/4” through 3/8” diameter cables. And General’s quick-change cartridges let you easily switch or clean cables without delay or mess. Flexicore cables are left hand coiled over a wire rope core—then heat-treated. General’s legendary design gives cables outstanding strength—without sacrificing flexibility. And Flexicore is so tough, it carries a one-year warranty against breakage. For additional information, contact the Drain Brains® at www.drainbrain.com/super-vee.
