Those are called mechanics fingers. Don't know why, I was a mechanic for years
and never used them on anything I worked on... I can see where they'd be
useful in grabbing clumps of stuff like hair or maybe a rag.

Aloha Lee,
Had one more thought. I don't know if you have
one, but there are devices called grabbers that
are great for removing hair and other solid junk
from a drain if it isn't down past the elbow. It
looks like a long flexible spring. At one end is
a button that you press that makes a claw-like
thing open on the other end. You can then grab
the junk, let go of the button, and pull the clog out.
