Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit is providing a flexible yet sturdy solution for pulling wires under floorboards, through ceiling ducts, trunking, and wall cavities, with a caveat of its 3.3m extended length which may be insufficient for very long runs. The kit includes 10 fibreglass rods, a flexible connector, a brass hook, and a plastic storage case, making it a compact and versatile tool for various cable installation tasks.

FAQs

What is the total extended length of the cable rods?

When all 10 rods are connected, the kit provides an extended length of 3.3 meters.

Can this kit be used for electrical wiring?

Yes, the fibreglass rods are non-conductive, making them safe for use around electrical wiring.

What is included in the kit?

The kit contains 10x 12-inch fibreglass rods, 1x flexible acrylic connection, 1x brass hook, and 1x plastic storage case.

How do I clean the rods?

Wipe the rods with a dry cloth after use to remove any dust or debris. Store them in the provided case.

Is the length sufficient for long cable runs?

The 3.3m length is suitable for most common residential tasks. For very long runs, you may need a longer cable retrieval system.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 12-month limited warranty.

Can I buy additional rods separately?

Information on purchasing additional rods separately is not provided with the product details. Please check with the retailer.

Troubleshooting

Rods are difficult to screw together

Ensure threads are clean and free of debris. Screw them together gently but firmly.

Cable gets stuck or snagged

Try gently wiggling the rods, or retracting and re-inserting. Ensure the path is clear of obstructions or sharp bends if possible. Use the flexible connector if navigating a tight corner.

Rod connection becomes loose during use

Gently tighten the connection. If the thread is damaged, consider using a different rod segment.

Hook attachment doesn't securely grip the cable

Try to create a loop in the cable or wrap the hook around a more substantial part of the cable. Ensure the hook is securely attached to the rod.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Non-conductive material for safe electrical work.
  • Flexible rods navigate tight bends and obstacles effectively.
  • Compact and portable for easy storage and transport.
  • Includes essential accessories like a hook for pulling cables.
  • Good value for basic cable routing tasks.

Cons

  • 3.3m maximum length may not be sufficient for all jobs.
  • Fibreglass rods can be brittle if bent too sharply.
  • Connections between rods might occasionally loosen under heavy strain.
  • Limited to basic cable pulling, not for complex installations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To assemble, simply screw the fibreglass rods together end-to-end. Attach the brass hook or the flexible acrylic connector to the desired end. The flexible connector allows for smoother navigation around tight corners.

Compatibility: This kit is compatible with most standard cables and wires that can fit through typical domestic conduits and wall cavities. The brass hook is designed to snag onto cable loops or insulation.

Care: After use, disconnect the rods and clean them with a dry cloth. Store the components back in the provided plastic case to prevent damage and keep them organised. Avoid excessive force or bending the rods beyond their natural flex to prevent breakage.
