Circular Chain Cutters for Flexi-Rooter® | High-Impact Cleaning for Roots, Scale, and Pipe Wall Build-Up

The General Circular Carbide-Tipped Chains are high-performance cutting attachments designed for use with the Flexi-Rooter Flexible Shaft Drain Cleaner, delivering aggressive pipe wall cleaning and precision root cutting. These circular-style chain cutters are available in 3" and 4" sizes, offering the flexibility to tackle different line diameters with maximum surface contact and cutting force.

Each chain is embedded with rugged carbide-tipped links, allowing it to grind through tough scale, hardened deposits, and intruding roots in cast iron, clay, or other durable pipe materials. Built for high-speed use (up to 2200 RPM) on a 5/16” flexible shaft, these cutters are ideal for contractors needing efficient, repeatable performance in heavy-duty drain cleaning scenarios.
