Professional drain maintenance
The Ridgid 41697 is a 3/4 in diameter inner-core steel cable built for drum machines such as the K-750 and K-750R. It targets main drain lines from 4 in to 10 in inside diameter, making it suitable for plumbers and facility crews clearing lateral and primary runs. The 100 ft length provides reach for extended underground or vertical sections without coupling multiple shorter cables.
Upgrade from sectional or smaller cables
This drum-style cable replaces sectional rods or 1/2 in cables that lack the torsional stiffness for 10 in mains. The jump is worth it when the run exceeds the reach of a single sectional length or when the line diameter demands the 3/4 in cross-section to transmit torque through heavy roots or grease. The fixed 100 ft drum format also eliminates the time spent threading couplings on site.
Sustained heavy blockage clearing
Under continuous rotation the inner-core construction resists kinking while driving cutters through dense obstructions in 4 in to 10 in pipe. The steel cable maintains torque delivery over the full 100 ft during long pulls, reducing the risk of the cable binding or folding back in oversized mains. The coupling end stays secure on the drum machine through repeated forward and reverse cycles.

Questions about this item
What drum machine series does the 41697 cable couple to?
The cable end coupling fits Ridgid K-750 and K-750R drum machines.
How is the 3/4 in IC cable loaded onto a K-750 drum without kinking?
Feed the inner-core cable straight into the drum while rotating the drum slowly; forcing a bend creates permanent kinks that reduce torque transfer.
When should the 100 ft steel cable be replaced?
Replace the cable when the steel strands show broken wires, flattened sections or the inner core protrudes through the outer windings.
