Full details

The Super Rod Cable Jack (SRJK) is designed for electricians and installers who need a portable and adaptable solution for managing cable spools, particularly for smaller domestic jobs. Its key benefit is the ability to create a lightweight, free-rotating cable spooler, either independently or integrated with existing 44mm cable rod tubes. A caveat is that the cable reel itself is not supplied with the unit. The Cable Jack offers a sturdy yet portable method for handling spools, ensuring smooth unwinding.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight the Super Rod Cable Jack can hold?

The Super Rod Cable Jack is designed to hold cable rolls weighing up to 35kg.

Does the Super Rod Cable Jack come with a cable reel?

No, the cable reel or cable roll is not supplied with the Super Rod Cable Jack.

What size cable rod tube is compatible?

The unit is designed to work with standard 44mm cable rod tubes.

Can I use the Cable Jack without a cable rod tube?

Yes, the Cable Jack can be used independently by screwing the legs directly into the collars, which then support the cable roll.

What are the legs made of?

The included legs are made of durable fiberglass and are 335mm in length.

How many collars are included?

The Super Rod Cable Jack includes two aluminum collars.

Is this suitable for large commercial projects?

The Cable Jack is primarily intended for smaller domestic tasks due to its weight capacity and design. For larger projects, heavier-duty spooling equipment may be required.

Troubleshooting

Spool does not rotate freely

Ensure the legs are screwed in securely and are lifting the cable roll sufficiently off the ground. Check that the cable roll is centered on the tube and not binding against the collars.

Unit feels unstable

Verify all four legs are firmly attached and properly seated. Ensure the ground surface is level. For 'A' frame setups, confirm the cable rod tube is securely connected to the collars.

Collars do not fit a 44mm tube

Double-check the diameter of your cable rod tube. The collars are specifically designed for 44mm tubes. Ensure there are no obstructions within the collar opening.
