While professional plumbers typically have a wide assortment of tools and gadgets at their disposal in their service vehicles, the average homeowner may get by with just the basics.

This is because knowledge (and replacement components) are more important than high-tech equipment and complicated methods for most plumbing issues in the average home. However, a few specialized tools are required for even the most basic plumbing work. The most well-known plumbing tools are at the top of the list.

Sink Auger

The best tool for dismantling and removing obstructions from bathtub and sink drains is a sink auger (also known as a drum auger or canister auger). Just don’t flush it down the toilet with it; for that, you’ll need a closet auger or toilet auger.

An auger for a sink is essentially a long, bendable cable made of stainless steel that ends in a corkscrew. In order to clear a blockage, a cable is retracted from its storage drum and fed into the drain. By inserting the cable into the drain and turning the handle, the rotating drum snakes the cable over and bends in the drain pipe, allowing the cable tip to penetrate obstructions and draw them out. The drum has a handle and a thumbscrew that locks the cable to the canister.

Closet Or Toilet Auger

For unclogging water closets and bathrooms, there is the toilet auger. An auger meant for a sink cannot be used in a toilet, and vice versa; these two augers have vastly different designs. The long, curved metal rod of a toilet auger allows it to fit into the opening at the base of the bowl. A rubber sleeve wraps around the kink to avoid scratching the toilet’s porcelain. As soon as the device is in position, the clog can be pushed aside by rotating the auger cable forward.

Plunger Cup (Sink and Tub Plunger)

A cup plunger is one of the most widely used household plumbing tools. Rubber cup-shaped with a wooden handle removes obstructions from plumbing fixtures like sinks, baths, and showers. A flange plunger, specifically designed for toilets, should be used instead (previous slide). However, the flange can be tucked within the cup, allowing the plunger to function as a regular cup plunger.

Plumber’s Tape

Using a plumber’s tape on threaded plumbing connections is necessary for maintaining watertight conditions. Thin and white plumber’s tape is commonly referred to as Teflon tape despite not really being manufactured from Teflon-brand material. It acts as a sealant to prevent leaks and as a lubricant to facilitate threading. This PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) product has a smooth, silky feel and comes in convenient, portable rolls.

Channel-Type Pliers

Channellock is a popular brand name for the type of pliers known as channel pliers, which are also called slip-joint pliers. They function similarly to standard adjustable pliers, but their extended adjustment sections and slanted jaws make securing a hold on pipes and other plumbing components of varying sizes easier. As a result of their length, the handles can be used to exert a great deal of pressure and twisting force. They’re ideal for holding onto thick steel tubing or carefully turning the massive plastic bolts on your sink’s drain. This is the one specialized plumbing instrument you absolutely must have.

Pipe Wrench Adjustable

The standard metal plumbing tool is an adjustable pipe wrench. It provides incredible leverage and grip. Its sharp serrated teeth are designed to dig into round objects (such as pipes) with increasing pressure as the wrench is turned.

Pipe wrenches leave teeth marks and are not recommended for removing shiny fixtures or small or fragile pipes, such as copper water pipes. Common applications for pipe wrenches include working with galvanized steel and iron pipe and rough-finished, industrial-strength fixtures like outdoor sinks and hydrants.

Tubing Cutter

The tubing cutter is a must-have plumbing tool when working with copper pipe. Tubing cutters make clean, square cuts in copper considerably more easily than with a hacksaw. With a twist of the handle, you may switch between the tool’s tiny cutting wheel and its flat pressure wheel, both of which are used to shape metal. Attach the tool’s clamp on the pipe, then revolve it clockwise around the pipe while tightening the knob every two or three revolutions. The material is slowly sliced through by the cutting wheels.

Use the de-burring tool (a triangular metal piece) attached to the body of the tube cutter to get rid of the burr on the inside of the pipe after you’ve cut.

A plumber requires various tools for plumbing installation, tap repair, and other repairs. The plumber relies on these tools to do a good job, so it’s crucial that they be used correctly and handled with care to prevent breakage. After use, they should be stored in a designated location. Many tools, such as clamps, pliers, saws, hammers, pipe threaders, pipe benders, etc., fall into the category of “holding tools.”
