The rugged, new, improved Handy-Stand turns General’s popular and reliable hand-held drain cleaners into practical countertop or floor machines.

Ergonomically balanced for maximum stability, the lightweight portable Handy-Stand fits the Super-Vee, Power-Vee and Handylectric. All three models are ideal for unclogging sinks, tubs and laundry drains.

The convenient Handy-Stand can be positioned either horizontally or vertically for optimal job site flexibility. Additional features include:

·      Convenient portable work stand for work in awkward places.

·      Balanced carrier makes it easier to get to and from the job.

·      Four-point base for increased stability.

·      Power cord holder for fewer work obstructions.

·      Lift handle that doubles as a spare cable cartridge holder.

General's Super-Vee power drain cleaner easily unclogs sink, shower, toilet and laundry drainlines ranging up to 3 inches in diameter. A slide-action chuck built into the front hand grip engages and releases the cable with a quick push or pull, even while the cable is rotating. The chuck automatically adjusts to take any diameter cable from 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch.  

The Power-Vee automatic feed drain cleaner has a simplified feeding system that's lighter and is easier to operate. It’s like having an extra hand in tight and awkward places. Just squeeze the lever and the cable feeds at a rate of up to 16 feet per minute.  The power cable feed can quickly adjust to take any diameter cable from 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch without requiring the use of tools or additional parts.

Both the Super-Vee and Power-Vee feature quick-change cable cartridges for fast cable changing or cleaning. Powered by a 3.2 amp variable-speed motor, both tools carry up to 50 feet of 1/4 inch and 5/16 inch and 35 feet of 3/8 inch Flexicore cable.  

Flexicore cables are made of heavy-gauge wire that is coiled tightly around 49-strand aircraft-type wire rope and heat treated. It has unequalled strength and the right amount of flexibility. Flexicore is so tough it carries a one-year warranty against defect or breakage. 

General Pipe Cleaners is a leading manufacturer of high quality drain cleaning equipment since 1930. General serves drain cleaning professionals and plumbing contractors - as well as facilities managers, the rental industry and the hardware/home center market. The Toughest Tools Down The Line.
