THE REAM-A-MATIC – HOW IT WORKS
The Ream-A-Matic uses a flexible shaft, which is available in different lengths
and diameters to fit the size of the tube to be cleaned. As the shaft rotates
inside its watertight nylon casing, the unit feeds water through the casing to the
cleaning tool. While the operator feeds the rotating shaft assembly through the
tube, the water flow flushes out deposits as they are loosened. A solenoid valve
automatically activates the water flow only when the machine is running.
Three models of the Ream-A-Matic are described in this manual: RAM-4,
RAM-4X and RAM-PTC.
The RAM-4 with a
/
"-1" (6.4-25.4mm) I.D. It is a compact, self-contained, roll-anywhere unit which

permits operation in tight quarters.
The RAM-4X is a heavy-duty version of the RAM-4, equipped with a 1 HP
(0.75 kW) electric motor, it is designed for cleaning tubes over 1" (25.4mm) I.D.
It requires a
/
" (12.7mm) heavy-duty flexible shaft. The RAM-4X can also be

used for dry applications.
The RAM-PTC Port-A-Ram is a lightweight Ream-A-Matic machine that can
be hand carried, making it ideal for personnel who will use the equipment in
multiple locations. It operates essentially the same as the RAM-4 and performs
the same job. The Port-A-Ram is direct drive so it rotates the cleaning tool at
1,700 rpm.
