Auto Feed 100 ft x 3/8 in Drain Cleaner Machine - Powerful Portable

In this review of the Auto Feed 100 ft x 3/8 in Drain Cleaner Machine the bottom line is simple: this unit is for homeowners and light commercial users who need a portable, reliable sewer snake that handles 1 to 4 in pipes without hand-feeding. The biggest reason to buy is the combination of a long, flexible manganese steel cable and an automatic feed system that moves the cable forward and back with an air-activated foot switch, so you spend less time wrestling a line and more time clearing clogs.

Key Features

• 100 ft manganese steel cable: the long, 3/8 in cable resists breakage, rust and corrosion so it reaches farther and lasts through repeated jobs.
• Eight interchangeable cutters: included cutters such as expanding finish, C-cutter, drop head auger and spade cutter allow the machine to tackle hair, grease and small obstructions in 1 to 4 in pipes.
• 370W high-speed motor: the powerful motor delivers consistent torque for most household and light commercial clogs while a semi-enclosed drum lets you monitor remaining cable.
• Automatic feed control: CW/OFF/CCW control plus an air-activated foot switch lets the operator feed and retract cable hands-free for safer, faster work.
• Mobility and storage: shock-absorbing wheels, a detachable handle and a tool hook make it easier to move on stairs and store cutters and accessories.

Who It's For

This drain auger is best for homeowners, small business maintenance staff and light plumbing contractors who need a portable, powerful unit for sinks, toilets, floor drains and small sewer lines. The automatic feed is helpful for one-person jobs and the 100 ft cable reaches farther than most handheld snakes.

Those working on larger municipal mains or heavy commercial grease traps should look for industrial-grade machines with larger diameter cable and higher horsepower, as this model is optimized for 1 to 4 in lines and lighter professional use.
