Drain cleaning cable GEKO G73152, 6 mm diameter × 3 m length

Flexible drain cleaning cable GEKO G73152, 6 mm diameter × 3 m length is designed for manual clearing of domestic drains such as sinks, showers and washbasins. The compact steel cable with 6 mm thickness and 3 m working length is intended to be fed into narrow pipes to reach and dislodge hair, soap scum and small debris causing moderate blockages. This tool is intended for light maintenance and DIY use where a compact, easy-to-handle solution is required for routine drain care.

Advantages

The 6 mm diameter provides a balance between flexibility and stiffness, allowing the cable to negotiate bends while retaining pushability to reach clogs. A 3 m length covers typical domestic runs from fixtures to trap bends or short branch lines. The cable’s construction resists kinking and is suitable for repeated manual insertion and withdrawal. Its compact size makes it easy to store and transport for occasional household maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Clearing hair and soap residue from shower and bathtub drains
• Unblocking washbasin and bathroom sink waste pipes
• Removing small debris from kitchen sink traps and short drain runs
• Light maintenance tasks in apartments, cottages and rented properties

Key specifications

• Cable diameter: 6 mm
• Cable length: 3 m
• Material: flexible steel cable suitable for manual feeding
• Construction: designed to resist kinking and allow repeated use
• Application environment: indoor domestic drain lines (sinks, showers, basins)

How to use

Insert the cable end into the drain opening and feed it slowly while applying gentle forward pressure. When resistance is felt at the clog, rotate and push the cable to break up or hook the obstruction, then withdraw the cable while keeping slight tension to pull debris out. Repeat feeding and withdrawal as necessary until water drains freely. After use, clean the cable with water, dry thoroughly and store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

For safety and best results, use the cable for moderate blockages only; avoid forcing it into severely damaged or corroded pipes. Wear protective gloves and eye protection when working with drain cleaning tools. If a blockage cannot be cleared after several attempts, consult a professional plumber to avoid damaging the drain system.
