Hand auger Flo 35670 — manual drain and soil auger, 1 piece

Flo 35670 is a manual hand auger supplied as a single piece for clearing blockages and probing drains or soil. The compact, hand-operated design provides a mechanical solution for light plumbing and gardening tasks where a simple, tool-free device is preferable. It is intended for targeted clearing and probing jobs in tight or shallow runs where powered equipment is unnecessary or impractical.

Advantages

The hand auger offers straightforward mechanical operation without batteries or power cords, allowing precise control when working in confined spaces. Its single-piece construction reduces setup time and simplifies transport and storage. The manual feed and rotation enable careful probing and gradual debris removal, which helps avoid damage to older pipes or delicate soil structures.

Suitable for

• Clearing small blockages in domestic drains and sinks
• Probing shallow soil for planting or root checks in gardens
• Minor plumbing maintenance in hard-to-reach areas
• Quick spot clearing where powered augers are unsuitable

Key specifications

• Type: manual hand auger
• Quantity: single-piece unit
• Operation: hand-crank / manual feed
• Suitable materials: typical domestic drain debris and soft soil
• Use case: light plumbing and gardening tasks

How to use

Insert the auger tip into the drain opening or the soil to the required depth, then rotate the handle by hand to feed the cable or shaft forward. Advance slowly while maintaining control to feel for obstructions; when resistance is encountered, rotate and withdraw slightly to catch or break up the blockage, then pull the auger back to remove debris. For soil probing, feed to the necessary depth and rotate to sample or loosen compacted material before withdrawing.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection. Avoid forcing the auger through rigid obstructions; if resistance is extreme, inspect the access point or consider professional assistance. After use, clean and dry the auger to prevent corrosion and store in a dry place.
