Discuss New cable thread/pull rod kit ? in the Electrical Tools and Products area at ElectriciansForums.net
The self seeking magnetic heads on the SuperRods have saved the day occasionally when you can only access a long distance apart, for instance either side of a wall through existing downlight positions, saves cutting new access points and making good, the finger trap for cable pulling is also tremendously useful, sometimes you do need a very flexible rod, it's hard to get it just right between stiff and floppy, keep it clean.

Oval conduit does the job well, also good fishing rod with an old metal coat hanger unwound and taped to it squeezing the hanger bit with plyers to make more of a hookI've still not found anything better than an old mini trunking lid

(I'm about to try B&Q brass bead chain with the standard cable eye. I'll post the results if they work!)
Agree, Out of all the Carp I have accumulated over the past 20 years my Rods are used every week/Another one for Super rod here.
I've been using them for 10 years or so.
It's a bit like Triggers broom though, in that time I've replaced the accessory kit, half the yellow rods and the flexible rod at least once.
I've accumulated a few bits for it as well.
It's great stuff and has been one of my best tool tart purchases.
This was the one I had in mind - says chrome plated brass?Just quickly checked to see if this was brass or brass plated
It's the latter.
