Power-Vee™ works great in tight spaces!

When working under sinks or in other awkward places, General’s Power-Vee is like having an extra hand.  Just squeeze the feed lever and the automatic feed grips the cable and drives it into the line.
The Power-Vee feeds and retrieves cables at up to 16 feet per minute and can handle 1/4" through 3/8" cables without any need for adjustment.
