Detailed Description
The RIDGID K9-102+ FlexShaft Machine is engineered to help pros clear small-diameter lines quickly and cleanly—common in kitchens, bathrooms, and tight residential runs. Inside the protective nylon sheath, the ¼″ (6 mm) flexible shaft spins at high speed to power chain knockers that scour the pipe edge to edge. This mechanical action breaks down grease, hardened scale, soap, and light roots without harsh chemicals.
Productivity increases the moment you arrive. The enclosed drum helps control debris during operation and speeds cleanup when the job is done. The “plus” upgrades on this model—quick-access perimeter latches, an improved cable clamp, and on-board hex key storage—mean faster prep and fewer trips to the truck for small tools. Because the cable remains within the sheath, it also reduces the risk of mess around fixtures and finishes.
A major advantage of the FlexShaft platform is camera compatibility. Technicians can run an inspection camera while cleaning to guide the process, verify removal, and capture before/after documentation for homeowners, property managers, or insurers. This visibility lowers guesswork, saves passes, and supports accurate recommendations for repair or maintenance.
With 50′ (15.2 m) of reach, the K9-102+ can service most household branch lines and laterals. Its compact, lightweight build is easy to carry into apartments, condominiums, and tight mechanical spaces. For recurring service plans or preventive maintenance programs, the tool’s quick setup and enclosed design let you complete more stops with professional, low-mess results.
In summary, the RIDGID K9-102+ FlexShaft Machine delivers small-line efficiency, camera-verified cleaning, and a jobsite-friendly enclosure. The key benefit is faster, cleaner service with proof of performance—ideal for pros who value speed, precision, and customer confidence.
