Find the Perfect Drain Machines for Your Business

16th Jul 2019

After the first drain cleaning machines were manufactured in the 1930s, the drain cleaning profession has changed dramatically. Instead of dealing with the arduous task of digging up clogged drain lines, service technicians could now feed a cable into a clogged line and easily remove the obstruction. Nearly 100 years later, drain machines are still the workhorses of most drain cleaning businesses.

Even though these machines are now standard for everything from sink clogs to tree roots in mainlines, they are not all created equal. When your business is choosing a professional grade drain cleaner, you need to deal with a manufacturer you can trust. At Duracable Manufacturing, all of our drain machines are constructed here in the USA from the highest-quality materials. We also offer an unrivaled warranty on the frames and motors on all of our machines.

We produce nine machine models across three distinct product lines: sink machines, sled machines, and upright machines. Below is a short summary of each of our models.

To keep that cable stored and your workplace clean, our duracable polyethylene reels can hold enough cable for any job.
