FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of the rods?

The rods are constructed with durable materials capable of supporting up to 250kg of weight.

How do I connect the rods?

The rods feature screw-in threads. Simply align the threads of two rods and twist them together until securely fastened.

What types of cables can this kit handle?

The kit is versatile and can handle various types of cables, including electrical wires, data cables, and network cables. The included Super Grips accommodate diameters from 6mm to 15mm.

Can I use the rods in tight bends?

Yes, the kit includes flexible rods like the Glo-rod and Flexi Leads designed to navigate tighter bends. However, extremely sharp or complex bends may require careful manipulation or alternative routing.

Is there a specific rod for dark or hard-to-see areas?

Yes, the kit includes a 5mm Glo-rod which is designed to be illuminated for better visibility in dark or confined spaces.

What is the purpose of the Gender Changer attachment?

The Gender Changer is used to convert the male thread on one rod end to a female thread, allowing for different connection possibilities or to attach accessories that have male threads.

How should I store the kit?

The kit comes with a dedicated storage case. It is recommended to clean and dry all components before storing them in the case to protect them and maintain organization.

Troubleshooting

Rod sections are difficult to screw together

Ensure threads are clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary, but avoid over-lubrication.

Attachment not securely connected

Verify that the threads on both the rod end and the attachment are clean and undamaged. Hand-tighten firmly.

Rod gets stuck during a pull

Try gently twisting the rod back and forth. If possible, use a different attachment (e.g., a more flexible lead) or a combination of rods to navigate the obstruction. Assess the route for sharp bends or blockages.

Magnet attachment has weak holding power

Ensure the magnet surface is clean and free of metal shavings or debris. The magnet's strength is designed for common tools and small cables; it may not hold heavier objects.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides significant reach (16 meters) for challenging installations.
  • Wide variety of attachments covers most common cable access needs.
  • Durable construction ensures longevity and safety under load.
  • Modular rod design enhances portability and storage.
  • Reduces the need for disruptive drilling and repairs by enabling efficient routing.

Cons

  • The large number of accessories may require dedicated organization.
  • Requires user experience to select the optimal rod and attachment for specific jobs.
  • GRP rods may be less flexible than some alternative materials in extremely tight bends.
  • Storage case, while convenient, can be bulky.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Assemble the desired rod length by screwing the individual 1-meter rod sections together. Ensure each connection is secure by hand-tightening.
  2. Select the appropriate attachment for your task (e.g., Hook for pulling, Magnet for retrieval).
  3. Screw the chosen attachment onto the end of the assembled rod.
  4. Carefully push or pull the rod through the access point, adding sections as needed to reach the target.

Compatibility:

This kit is designed for general cable access and routing. The various rod diameters and attachment types ensure compatibility with a wide range of cable sizes and conduit types. Always ensure the attachment fits through the intended pathway.

Care:

  • After use, clean all rods and attachments with a damp cloth to remove debris.
  • Dry components thoroughly before storing to prevent corrosion or damage.
  • Store all parts in the provided case to protect them and maintain organization.
  • Periodically inspect rods for cracks or damage, and attachments for wear.
