Slow-draining or clogged drains are easy to clear with a drain auger, otherwise known as a drain or plumbing snake. A plumbing snake , also called a drain snake, or drain auger, is a thin, flexible metal cable coiled into a protective drum and is designed to be put deep into a drain to pull out a clog. A professional snake or auger can push or "punch" a clog through to loosen it. While you may need to call in a plumber for stubborn clogs, most clogs due to soft debris can be snagged and removed by a drain snake. With this simple, low-cost device that you can store in a sink cabinet, you'll save time and money by not having a plumber clear your clogged drain. Use a drain snake when your sink , shower, or tub drain is draining slowly or is not draining at all due to soft clogs located up to 15 to 25 feet down the line. Snaking or augering a drain can often solve water drainage problems that cannot be cured by chemicals, plunging, or by using a plastic hair snake. Drain snakes cannot pick up heavy items such as rings, nor can they cut through obstructions in drainage pipes. A snake's cable can be up to 25 feet long. The end of the cable has a corkscrew-type spring that removes clogs in drains.
