The previous owners did absolutely nothing to rectify the situation aside from simply not using one of the bathrooms. So we've dug up the lines, in a slab foundation it's real fun, we've snaked them out repeatedly, tried to flush, used so many chemicals, and finally we thought we was at a good spot but nope a month later the shower was backing up again, ugh. Our grandson recommend using these crystals and I thought well it's only a few bucks so okay. My gosh it's the best thing we've done so far. I've used them about 4 times now and my drains have never ran so freely. I'm totally amazed at this product and can't stop telling anyone who will listen how great it is. After years of sediment build up from well water with no filtering or softener system the pipes were screaming for help. These crystals answered that call and told the plumber to hold his beer.

To get 100% you need reagent grade and will pay for it. So this is lye suitable for non-technical purposes. **Q: Is this cleaner harmful to plastic drain pipes?** A: In the short term probably not because there is no warning on the container about such a risk. Plus, when I make soap, I dissolve the lye in a plastic bucket, one that I have dedicated to lye solution for soapmaking. I have used the same bucket for a number of years, with no holes forming in it. It is possible that over a period of decades it might be affected. However, when I make lye solution for soapmaking, the solution sits in the same bucket for at least 30 minutes, sometimes longer, whereas drain cleaners are meant to go in and do their job, then get flushed away. So I believe it is highly likely that this drain cleaner will not harm plastic drain pipes. **Q: Will this product kill the good bacteria in the septic system?** A: It is likely that Roebic lye crystals will kill the good bacteria in a septic system. It would depend on how much lye you pour down the drain or toilet, and the size of your system, and possibly other factors. I am fairly certain I have read more than once that lye is not to be used in septic systems which rely on living organisms to break down sewage. If it is too late and you have used it and killed the living organisms, there is a product you can buy that is supposed to help recolonize or repopulate the system with good microorganisms. Rid-X is one such product. Good luck. **Q: How many cups are in this 60 ounce container?** A: According to my scale: 1 cup of Roebic lye crystals weighs 9.6 ounces (oz) 2 cup Roebic lye crystals weighs 19.2 ounces (oz) so 60 ounces (oz) should give you 6.25 cups. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is the stuff that tells the plumber to hold my beer *by F***D on November 1, 2025* This stuff is amazing We've been fighting the drain issues with our house ever since we bought it last year.

Ordinary liquid drain cleaners did nothing to clear it; neither did a 50 foot plumbing snake. So I bought this Roebic concentrated sodium hydroxide. I planned to drop a few teaspoons down the drain. Wearing no protective gear. Oops. I accidentally spilled a LOT MORE (quarter cup?) on the measuring spoon. And the drain. And the water in it. WHOOSH. YOWWWW -- as the geyser hit the back of my ungloved left hand. The world turned white. Worst pain I've ever felt, worse than getting hit by a car, worse than watching the 2016 election. The sodium hydroxide was boiling the fat under the skin. Fun fact 1: the "heat of solution" of sodium hydroxide is about 1000 calories per gram of NaOH. 600 calories turns a gram of water into steam, Right Now Only. Fun fact 2: A quarter cup of NaOH is more than 100 grams. Fun fact 3: Soap can be made with sodium hydroxide plus animal fat. I grabbed some lemon juice from the fridge, and poured that on my hand - over a different sink. Weak acid neutralises alkali - fizz instead of boiling. Followed by a few hours alternately drying and soaking my hand in a weak solution of salt and lemon juice. Followed by a couple of weeks of salve, absorbent medical pads, and Coban tape. An oversized cloth glove is better for holding pads in place over a hand than Coban. Two months later, the hand is painless, the loose skin is healed and not too ugly, and I could type the letters on the left side of this keyboard. And the drain stopped up again. Episode 2: I used the drain line cleanout port in the basement. I dressed "full moon suit" - a surplus cleanroom suit with an actual helmet and air hose! - and wore heavy gloves, and tall boots with the pants cuffs OVER the top of the boots. Newspaper covering all surfaces nearby. I /carefully/ and /slowly/ measured out spoonfuls of the recommended amount of Roebic into a small bowl (with a flat bottom so it wouldn't tip), then /slowly/ spooned that into the cleanout port. No eruption, very anticlimactic ... thank goodness. Now the drain runs fine, and we treat it often with weaker (and safer) drain cleaners. Roebic is the 900 pound gorilla of drain cleaners. You should treat it like the variety of gorilla with a flamethower and hand grenades. If you are very careful, Roebic will do an excellent job of clearing clogs that are resistant to everything else. Treat the whole bottle of concentrated firepower like belt of hand grenades in a bad war movie. My one bottle will probably last for life, and certainly will last until the plague ends, when it is safe to bring in a crew to dig up and replace the drain line. I hope the Roebic product is available for a long time, and that they have very good liability lawyers, and that all you other customers are more careful and responsible than I was. Skip episode one, start with episode two. ## Frequently Bought Together - Roebic HD-CRY-DO 2 Pounds Professional Strength Crystal Drain Opener, 100% Lye, Black - Roebic K-97 Main Line Cleaner: Exclusive Bacteria Digests Paper, Fats, and Grease in Sewer and Septic Systems - 32 Ounces, Liquid - Roebic FRK-1LB Foaming Root Killer: Clear Pipes, Stop New Growth, Safe for All Plumbing - 1lb, White, Granules --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/6228747-hd-cry-do-6-2-pound-heavy-duty-crystal-drain](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/6228747-hd-cry-do-6-2-pound-heavy-duty-crystal-drain) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
