I bought a set of Lockrods, along with various accessories and attachments, recently, and would like to mention one or two improvements that would be of benefit. Firstly, the tongue on the male end, and corresponding socket on the female end meet-up at the same time as the screw threads do, making them awkward to assemble. I would suggest extending the tongue by about 2 - 3 millimetres to allow the tongue and socket to engage before the screw threads meet-up. Second point is the screw parts are knurled and will eventually wear smooth. Also they would be difficult to grip covered in slime after removal from a pipe, I would recommend the brass fittings be made from hexagonal stock, allowing the connections to be tightened and undone with a suitable spanner. I have a number of tools which, although apparently not made by you, appear quite useful. One such tool is a crank handle allowing the user to twist the rods. My suggestion is a sliding "T" bar, with the tommy bar about 25 - 30 cm in length, allowing two-handed operation, and the sliding "T" enabling adjustment of the leverage.

FROM A DIY POINT OF VIEW THEY WORK WELL ALTHOUGH THE LOCKING SCREWS CAN BE STIFF. THEY DO NOT COME WITH A DRAIN BRUSH .DOES ANYONE KNOW IF YOU CAN GET ONE AND FROM WHERE ??

Excellent piece of kit. Used to unblock a drain recently. Really quick and easy to put together and work well, making the job quick and easy! Would definitely recommend - fantastic bit of kit and excellent value.

Reviews & Awards

This LockRod system from Silverline has positive locating square ends and locking rings. Instead of screwing each rod into the socket of the preceding set you simply turn the locking rings in to secure them. They are brilliant, and they are also very bendy, so you can get them around tightish bends.
