Best way for the plumbers to carry the flex shaft on a service call
Finally, there is an affordable and nice looking option to keep your flex shaft sealed while also being able to operate it. The Flexible Shaft Carrier is here to make your tasks less messy without fearing dripping dirt all over your customer’s home.
The Flexible Shaft Carrier is made from high quality industrial grade plastic so it is very lightweight (1.4kg or roughly 3 lbs.) so you can easily carry it around using the handle integrated in the carrier.
The Flexible Shaft Carrier is suitable for both left and right handed users since it is equipped with shaft exit in both ends of the carrier. Both ends are also equipped with a washer, so the drill end of the shaft won’t get lost inside the carrier, staying neatly just outside it for easy use.
For optimal performance and durability of your flexible shaft, it's essential to extend the shaft as much as possible during use. A tightly coiled shaft underperforms due to friction against its sleeve, even if well-lubricated. Extending the shaft maximizes torque and enhances the lifespan of the shaft.
Oh, and the spacious, round back of the carrier is ready for your company’s logo sticker. Let your brand shine and make your colleagues envy your setup even more.
