Goodway Introduces New Heavy-Duty Tube Cleaner
Goodway Tools Corporation has developed a new Heavy-Duty Ream-A-Matic, Model RAM-2, for cleaning tubes in heat exchangers, condensers, and absorption units. This new model is sturdier for a longer life, and designed to accommodate a new, improved heavy-duty flexible shaft. An optional watertight footswitch is also available.
The Model RAM-2 incorporates a 110V electric motor that turns a flexible shaft inside a watertight casing. It has an adjustable valve and connects to a standard hose that supplies water through the casing to be ejected at the rotating cutting/buffing tool or a nylon or steel brush. This keeps the tool/brush clean at all times and flushes out loosened deposits.
The flexible shaft can be supplied in any length up to 100 feet and to clean tubes from 5/16-inch to 1-inch in diameter.
Self-contained Ream-A-Matic can be handled easily by one man, cleaning from one end only, with little space required.
