THE FLEXSHAFT EFFECT
Regardless of the setting, whether it’s a home,
a restaurant or a business premises, one thing
is known for sure: every drainage system needs
occasional maintenance, either cleaning and/ or
unblocking and for that you want a quick,
but e icient solution that leaves the pipes
clean and free-flowing as if they were new.
FlexSha… For The Win
When RIDGID designed the new FlexSha‚
machine, one of the biggest goals was to
bring real added value to the professional
drain cleaners. A machine that would tackle
most so‚ blockages, clean pipe walls, do the
job in a short time and with minimal e ort or
set-up, allow the camera inside the pipe while
cleaning, would become a real value-bringer to
the professionals’ business.
And yes, Flexsha‚ proved to be nothing less than
just that, a value bringer.
One of the primary advantages of the two small
FlexSha‚ machines is portability. The K9-102 weighs
about 11 kg, while K9-204 weighs 17 kg – they are
easy to carry around just about anywhere. Besides,

STOCKSIGNS CONTINUES TO DELIVER FOR
KNIGHTS BROWN
A combination of excellent
customer service, specialist
support and an extensive portfolio
has meant that for another year -
Stocksigns remains the preferred
supplier of site and road safety
signage for Knights Brown. The
successful relationship recently
led to Stocksigns supplying a key
project in Gloucestershire to help
improve general safety.
Based in Ringwood in Hampshire,
Knights Brown has a broad portfolio spanning a number of sectors. As such,
the multidisciplinary construction company has a constant requirement for a
wide variety of temporary and permanent site and road safety signage. In 2014,
Knights Brown was approached by Stocksigns to o er its services. A‚ er an
initial agreement to supply some temporary site signage, the two companies
have since maintained a strong relationship over the last seven years. In fact,
Stocksigns has become Knights Brown’s go-to supplier for all its signage needs.
At a recent project, Stocksigns supplied products for use at the junction of
the A46 and A4173 in Pitchcombe, Gloucestershire. As part of Gloucestershire
County Council’s £150 million scheme to improve its highways, Knights Brown
installed a series of designated crossing points, widened the junction and raised
the level of the surrounding roads. Stocksigns provided a number of mounted
direction, speed limit and give way signs that helped to improve motorist and
pedestrian safety.

FlexSha‚ machines are powered by a widely used
18-volt battery-powered drills, so there’s no need to
deal with power cords. All machines come with two
chain knockers that expand as they rotate to clean
the entire circumference of a pipe.
The latest addition to the FlexSha‚ range is the
K9-306 featuring 38m of 10mm cable. It’s less playing
in the portability field, but more playing in the power
field – the machine weighs around 72 kg. K9-306 is
a heavy-duty machine equipped with an internal
universal motor powered with I-Clutch™ technology.
The i-Clutch protects the cable by stalling the motor
when you encounter a hard blockage. The drum is,
just like the other FlexSha‚ machines, fully enclosed
to keep the job site as clean as possible. The K9-306
aims a minimum set-up and clean up time. It has
a telescoping handle, multiple wheels and grab
points to make loading, unloading, transporting, and
storage of the machine easier.
FlexSha‚ is a new style of drain cleaner; all these
machines clean drains at high speed. What makes
FlexSha‚ specifically useful is that it utilises a very
flexible sha‚ that can not only bend, but also still
rotates. The fact it rotates within an outer sheath
makes it also safer and cleaner during operation, as
the hands don’t touch rotating cables and debris isn’t
thrown around while doing a clean-out.
FlexSha‚ can be advantageous to use over other
drain cleaning methods as they clean drains without
needing a water or power supply, which minimises
set-up time. Certainly, when you’re considering drain
cleaning jobs in confined spaces, very public or
hygienic areas and hard-to-reach jobs, FlexSha‚ is
your best option.
