Drain Rod Spring Cable GEKO G73157 — 10 mm diameter, 20 m length, pack of 5

GEKO G73157 drain rod spring cable is a flexible cleaning cable designed for clearing blockages from pipes and drains. The cable has a 10 mm diameter and a 20 m working length, and this pack contains five identical cables for repeated or multiple-site use. Its spring-style construction enables navigation through bends and offsets in household and light commercial plumbing lines to dislodge hair, grease, sediment and small mechanical obstructions.

Advantages

The spring construction offers a balance of flexibility and stiffness to push through curved sections while transmitting rotational force from a manual or powered feed. A 10 mm diameter provides a slim profile suitable for standard domestic drainpipes and traps, while the 20 m length covers long runs and reaches deeper blockages. Supplied as a set of five, the pack reduces downtime by allowing quick replacement of worn cables or simultaneous servicing of multiple fixtures. The design is compatible with common drain rod holders and basic hand reels used in household maintenance.

Suitable for

• Clearing sink, shower and bathtub drains in residential properties
• Removing hair and small debris from bathroom and kitchen traps
• Light commercial plumbing maintenance for restaurants, small offices and retail
• General preventive maintenance to keep sewer branches and branch lines free-flowing

Key specifications

• Cable diameter: 10 mm
• Cable length: 20 m
• Construction: spring-style flexible steel cable
• Quantity: pack of 5 cables
• Intended use: manual or compatible powered drain rod systems

How to use

Feed the cable into the drain or pipe while applying gentle forward pressure; rotate the cable to help the spring profile cut through or entangle the obstruction. Withdraw periodically to clear accumulated debris from the cable, and repeat insertion as needed until normal flow is restored. For best results, secure the cable in a compatible hand reel or rod holder when applying sustained rotation or when using a low-speed powered drive. After use, clean and dry the cable before storage to reduce corrosion and extend service life.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when handling used cables. Avoid excessive force with powered tools to prevent cable damage or pipe lining harm. Choose the 10 mm diameter spring cable for standard household drains and consider thicker cables for larger sewers or heavier commercial blockages.
