Protective covers made of protective material to prevent twisting and kinking of associated apparatus used for clearing obstructions in pipes or other cavities (the apparatus also commonly referred to as drain snakes) are disclosed. The cover bodies encircle the apparatus with an entry opening, closest point to the where the apparatus is coming from when the apparatus is moving toward the drain, and an exit opening, where the apparatus leaves the protective cover and moves toward or into the part being cleaned, which could be a drain, pipe or other part that material flows through. The entry and exit openings could be a section of the protective cover or they could be a separate attachable part. The protective cover body may have a handle, and may be rigid or flexible, with an option to have accordion like flexibility.
