General Pipe Cleaners, division of General Wire Spring Company

General Pipe Cleaners, a division of General Wire Spring Co., has been synonymous with innovation in the drain cleaning industry. Known for our unwavering commitment to quality and performance, we’ve continually evolved our product line to meet the ever-changing needs of professionals, ensuring that the toughest jobs get done right. Our journey began in 1930 when Abe Silverman, a visionary entrepreneur, founded General Wire Spring Company. Recognizing a need in the market, Abe soon shifted focus to drain cleaning equipment, revolutionizing the industry with the introduction of the Flexicore cable in the 1940s. This groundbreaking invention, featuring a unique blend of strength and flexibility, set a new standard for drain cleaning cables and remains a cornerstone of our product line to this day.
