Mine has brass (I think) ends just like advertised
Bought this yesterday after spotting my drain had blocked and I had a new swimming pool. I've used plumbers and the likes in the past when my drain has blocked (costing £hundreds) but I saw a YouTube video from a guy with the exact same problem as me. He bought drain rods and managed to unblock his drain in minutes, so I decided to give it a shot (the video is called How to unblock a kitchen sink drain, and is by a dude called mothballjim)The rods arrived today and they are exactly as advertised. I spent 5 minutes poking the drain with the pointy attachment to loosen things up, and then 5 more with the plunger end, and would you know it, it suddenly started to drain and the pool was gone within seconds. Saved me loads of money for this blockage and many future blockages.There is a lot of rod pieces so I used two pieces for each attachment, rather than unscrewing the attachment to change them.The rods feel sturdy and, as long as you don't twist them the wrong way when using them, they stay screwed up tight.Excellent and essential piece of kit for anyone with a drain that keeps blocking.

Worked well!
Easy to assemble and straight forward instructions. Worked like a treat! Tried everything to unblock the drain and this did the job, only thing I would is when using the plunger bit, the screw came loose but other than that great product.

Perfect for unblocking sewage drains/manholes
I bought this to unblock a manhole which led to a sewer system and have been really impressed with it.Firstly, the quality is great one of my main concerns was its flexibility I was a bit scared that it might break when I was using this to unblock the drains, but it held up really well and felt very strong and sturdy.I'm very happy with all the accessories that it came with, from the different heads and coming with multiple rods so you can extend it as far as you need it to up to 9 metres.Overall, this product worked a charm and I would highly recommend it, as it was suited for my needs and it just did the job.Hope you found my review helpful.

Good value, tough and easy to assemble.
Well made, robust pieces with secure srew fittings. Perhaps the manufacturer could emboss the correct way to rotate the item in use to prevent possible unscrewing and subsequent loss.

They untwist easily
They feel good quality tough made but they unscrew easily, could loose one down the drain if one was to poke it all the way around the bend.

Just the job (pun intended). Best £26 I've ever spent - ideal for blockages in straight pipes
Buying these drain rods was a last roll of the dice for solving a long running saga that started with a blocked toilet, but escalated to a much bigger problem, with our decking area smelling like a sewage treatment facility; not ideal as we sought refuge during COVID lockdown.I had tried all the obvious tricks courtesy of Google - plunging, various chemicals, vinegar/baking powder - am sure you've done the same. They are fine for superficial issues close to the toilet lid, but this was (if you'll pardon the pun) a much bigger job.Having exhausted the quick-fixes without success, my challenge was understanding how my drainage worked (not something I spent much time pondering, when everything was flowing away as normal ). If you have them, dig out the plans for your property and look for 'foul water drainage' which is what magically transports bathroom, utility and kitchen effluent away for someone else to worry about.Those plans gave me a chance of pinpointing the blockage. I found a hatch in my decking that I had never noticed, revealing the foul water exit from my/adjacent property. Whatever I flushed or purged, nothing came out, though my neighbours pipe was working. The stench was only getting worse, and attempts to somehow deploy my Karcher pressure washer were futile, so with pressure from my wife to admit defeat and call Dynarod, I bought these drain rods, which seemed a reasonable investment based on my level of expectation, which was pretty low.Knowing the pipe in question was straight and roughly 8m in length I thought these were worth a punt. Estimate the maximum length of the pipe in question and then add a metre as you need something to hold onto, and the entry will be below ground.These rods are bendy, but I wouldn't expect them to go round bends. I avoided using the plunger fitting as my biggest fear was making the issue ten times worst by getting that stuck deep into my drain system, instead I used the claw attachment assuming the blockage was wipes, fat or a big plug of unmentionables. It looked well designed for grabbing that kind of material.The drain hatch was very close to a fence but the rods were flexible enough to bend into the drain opening and I was then able to gradually attach and screw them in, extending into the pipe. I recommend wearing gloves, but this makes it a bit harder to screw them tight, but is absolutely essential, going anti-clockwise to lock; you then keep turning the rods in that direction as you push them in, sweeping up the pipe until you hopefully find the source of your problems.My hopes were fading after attaching the eighth of nine rods when I suddenly felt resistance; for any fisherman it was like getting a bite, but this wasn't something I wanted to serve up with chips for tea. I twisted clockwise (against the threads) and there was some give, gave it a pull (striking, to maintain the fishing analogy) and bingo, I unleashed the mother-load.As I whipped out the rods (carefully) I heard a big glugging sound followed by a massive plug of wipes and a river of brown mess accompanied by a smell I am still struggling to shake-off. Despite the offensive nature of the procession - that just kept coming - I was dancing in celebration.I would highly recommend these rods if you are reasonably certain of what you are dealing with, and the pipe in question doesn't have an angle above 45 degrees. They have been disinfected ready for future emergencies, though we'll be more careful what we put down the loo. The best £26 I have ever spent - just the job!!!
