Blockage Removal Kit - Cast Iron Pipes - 150mm (6") to 200mm (8")

For the big jobs.

This kit will not replace your high pressure water jet for the removal of sand deposits, but if you are looking at this option then you are probably interested in grinding up tree roots, remove cement, tile grout, stones and other hard blockages.

This kit is not suitable for PVC, but will be perfect for cement, vitrified clay, cast iron, and similar pipework that is made from hard materials.

This kit only comes with a 12mm (1/2") cable. Anything thinner than this will struggle with torque limitation over longer distances. You will need a more powerful drill than the smaller diameter kits, so please get in touch with us if you need a recommendation.

Safe to use in a confined space with limited access, and the chemical resistant sleeve that houses the shaft will protect your hands while the shaft rotates inside.

The chains that come with the kit are our most aggressive chains. They have a crown drill head which has a 25mm (1”) opening diameter, meant for cutting in a forward direction.

Not only do they obliterate blockages, but they can also tackle mild lime scale buildup and tuberculation in pipes.

Each chain consists of three individual stainless steel chains, with robust hard metal tips fused to the outer edge. The chains are easily adjustable and mount to the flexible shaft with set screws.

If you are in the pipe rehabilitation trade, you will be familiar with the challenges of extracting a failed liner. This kit will grind up a failed liner faster than chemical softeners, and you can mount a sewer camera behind the chains to see what you are doing in real time. We recommend complimenting these tools with our Croco Bore for reinstatement tasks.

The kit includes:

• Flexible shaft
• Heat and chemical resistant sleeve
• Friction bearings to prevent dirt from entering the space between the sleeve and the shaft.
• Rotator shaft socket to connect the flexible shaft to your power drill
• X-Tip Sewer Cleaning Chain (with drill head) - 150mm (6")
• X-Tip Sewer Cleaning Chain (with drill head) - 200mm (8")

Product pictures may vary in color and design depending on the size and diameter that you order

Please lubricate your shaft before using it. Aviation law prohibits us from delivering products which could be considered flammable so we send the shafts without lubricant in the sleeve.

Before you order the longest length possible, consider this:

Most experienced users order the kit with a short shaft for everyday use and supplement it with a secondary shaft and connector. The advantage to this is that on a day-to-day basis, you carry less with you into your workspace, then if you need extra length you can fetch your secondary shaft from your vehicle and connect it to the one you are working with. A second advantage to having two separate shafts is that should you accidentally kink the one you are working with then you have a backup available immediately.
