Is this old Hoffman 9A serviceable?

Options

Hi All, This was completely clogged with gunk. I can't seem to remove the inside cage unit. Is this serviceable??

    it probably unscrews if you put a wrench on the hex on the cage unit.

    And if the insides need replacing, you can get kits from Barnes & Jones or Tunstall. No need to replace the entire trap.
