Our Flexible Shaft Set includes a flexible shaft, chemical and heat-resistant sleeve and two friction bearings. It is designed to deliver rotary motion reliably, operating at speeds from 500 to 3,500 RPM. The sleeve reduces strain on the pipe walls and protects the shaft during operation.
Each shaft is built using layered spring-grade wire wound in alternating directions to balance flexibility, torque delivery, and durability. Precision-machined drive ends and brass friction bearings help prevent overheating and protect against debris ingress.
Available Shaft Diameters
Choosing the right shaft diameter affects torque and flexibility. Use this guide to select the best fit for your application:
| Shaft Diameter | Imperial Size | Outer Diameter (with Sleeve) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6mm | 1/4″ | 10mm (0.395″) | Tight residential lines and multiple bends; light blockages |
| 8mm | 5/16″ | 12mm (0.477″) | Mid-size drains; balance of bendability and torque |
| 10mm | 3/8″ | 15mm (0.593″) | Pipes with moderate bends; torque close to 12mm shaft |
| 12mm | 1/2″ | 18mm (0.711″) | Large lines or tough blockages; highest torque, least flexible |
Available Lengths
We offer standard lengths of 2m, 5m, 10m, 15m, 20m, and 30m. Custom lengths available on request.
| Metric Length | Imperial Length | Suggested Use |
|---|---|---|
| 5m | 16.4 ft | Short runs with maximum torque |
| 10m | 32.8 ft | Versatile for most residential clogs |
| 15m | 49.2 ft | Multi-floor stacks or longer lines |
| 20m | 65.6 ft | Matches average blockage and clean-out distances |
| 30m | 98.4 ft | Commercial or deep mainlines where reach is critical |
Longer shafts experience some torque loss. For flexibility and convenience, consider using two shorter shafts with a shaft to shaft connector that is ideal for combining different diameters to match bend navigation with torque requirements.
Please Note:
- Always lubricate the shaft before first use. Due to aviation restrictions, shafts are shipped dry.
- Shaft shrinkage may occur (approx. 75mm at ends) during first use. Trim ends and reattach tools if needed.
- Compatible with a variety of tools like chains, brushes, carbide heads, and retrieval hooks can be swapped quickly.
