The Teletube heavy-duty closet auger from General Pipe Cleaners clears stoppages beyond the toilet bowl without needing to pull the bowl. The Teletube carries three extra feet of Flexicore cable telescoped inside the guide tube. The user pushes the button for extra cable length when needed. The strength and durability of the Flexicore cable inside makes the difference. Flexicore comprises two layers of tempered spring steel coiled tightly over a core of 49-strand wire rope for resistance to kinking. The design is guaranteed against breakage for a full year – including damage to the cable, as well as other components.
