Drain Cleaning Spiral Cable AWTools AWTOOLS SPIRALA 10 mm x 4 m for Manual Drain Rod

AWTools SPIRALA drain cleaning spiral with a 10 mm diameter and 4 m length is a flexible, manually operated cable designed for clearing blockages in small-diameter pipes and household drains. The spiral cable is intended for use with hand-operated drain rods and manual drain-cleaning tools, providing a mechanical solution for removing hair, grease and compacted debris from sinks, tubs, shower drains and short stretches of domestic plumbing.

Advantages

The 10 mm spiral profile balances flexibility and stiffness to pass through bends in narrow pipes while providing enough rigidity to transmit manual rotation and push force. At 4 m length the cable reaches common blockage locations in sinks and washbasins without the need for power tools. The simple construction requires minimal maintenance and can be coiled for compact storage. It is compatible with standard manual drain rods and hand crank drain cleaners intended for domestic use.

Suitable for

• Clearing hair and organic debris from bathroom sink and shower drains
• Removing grease and small blockages in kitchen sink traps and short pipe runs
• Maintenance of small-diameter domestic drainage systems
• Use with hand-operated drain rods and manual drain-cleaning tools

Key specifications

• Cable diameter: 10 mm
• Cable length: 4 m
• Construction: flexible spiral metal cable suitable for manual operation
• Intended pipe size: small-diameter household drains and fittings
• Compatibility: designed for use with manual drain rods and hand-operated drain cleaners

How to use

Insert the spiral cable into the blocked drain while keeping a firm grip on the manual rod or handle. Rotate the cable clockwise or counterclockwise and gently feed it forward until resistance from the obstruction is felt. Continue rotating to engage and either pull the debris back out or break it up enough to push it through the pipe. Withdraw the cable slowly to avoid splatter and wipe it clean after use. Follow any instructions provided with the manual rod or drain-cleaning tool used together with the spiral.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate gloves and eye protection when operating the spiral cable. Avoid forcing the cable into very tight or rigid pipe bends to prevent damage to the cable or fittings. For persistent or deep blockages beyond the cable length or in larger-diameter sewer lines, consult a professional service or use a powered drain-cleaning machine designed for those conditions.
