5/16" dia. Tempered Steel Rods: These rods are for heavy duty use and will not break. They are made of high strength, premium tempered steel for maximum durability and strength. They can also be coupled to the 1/4" rods to create a more flexible length to get through offsets then use these heavy duty rods for the straight section of chimney.

7/8" dia. Hollow Aluminum Rods
7/8" dia. Hollow Aluminum Rods: These rods work great for power sweeping or tile breaking from the top. They are extremely lightweight and super durable. They are designed to be used in conjunction with our 13/16" nylon rods or steel rods for tile breaking and chain whipping. If working from the top down in a flue or duct that has an offset, use the solid nylon or steel rods first then add these lightweight aluminum rods. This will allow you to get through the offset.
