Fish Tape, Fiberglass Wire Puller with Spiral Steel Leader, Optimized Housing and Handle, 15 m, Klein Tools 56350

I managed to get this at an unbelievable price. I think for what I paid, I'm incredibly happy with it. I think I would have had a very hard time justifying this at full price; I think you could if you work with a lot of conduit. But I don't really, it's a nice-to-have for me.

Having got this originally to install a dashcam, I've found many other uses for it since. It's a well-designed, professional tool. There's plenty of length, so it can be used for many different applications. It's tough, and seems capable to withstanding heavy use. No complaints at all. Highly recommended.

This is a really good quality flexible fish tape tool. The quality of the tool is truly impressive and the orange colour doesn’t look too bad either. 👍 I used this to fish some electrical wire through some PVC conduit tubing and it worked great.

Very easy to use. Tip is excellent. It’s a little flimsy, like you can send it up conduit and so on as long as there is nothing else in the conduit. Great for new installs. But if you’re installing into a duct that already has a lot of cables it gets stuck on everything. It’s very good though I just wish it was stiffer. 8/10 for me

I ordered this for my partner who is an electrical engineer. He has bought so many fishing tools in the past , all of which have snapped or lost the cables attached . This sounded perfect. The outer shell is sturdy and robust and the fibreglass fish is easy to use. I haven't used this myself , I'm just relaying what my partner has told me about it. He's used it a few times the last few weeks , he said it's the best fish he's ever had and his brother in the same occupation has already asked where he got it after using it on a job. The fibreglass is more versatile and less rigid than previous types used. I think the price on first glance seems expensive , but put into perspective , this costs about £48 more than what my partner has paid in the past and this does the job , fast , effectively and with no breakage . I'm happy to recommend it.

Can't imagine running cables in a house without one of these, Klein make quality tools so you know you've bought something for life here

Although expensive for what it is, it works exactly as described. A nice easy mechanism of threading the lead and retracting it once the wire or cable is attached. Nice and flexible to go round corners, and a good length of tape to thread between floors and along walls. So far I have only used this once to fit an extension in the garage through the cavity rather than over the plasterboard, and it made the job easy and looked better.

Materials: Thick & Robust Plastic housing & handle. 15m Fiberglass Wire Puller. Spiral Steel Leader. Impressions: Very easy to pull out the steel string. Very robust shell, with optimized design for less friction. Large (18cm) spiral steel leader, that easily goes through crowded areas. Etched markings in 0.3m help get more accurate measurements. This is a great Fish tape tooling as its suitable for both professionals and beginners, it's so simple to use that you just can't get it wrong. What you need to do is position the spiral steel leader into the tubing/hole and simply start unwinding the wire puller in 15 cm increments. Thanks to the robust casing and comfortable carry handle it's easy to operate with it. It's also made of robust plastic shell on the outside, whereas the wire puller itself has a 18cm steel leader that easily goes through crowded areas and the fiber fiberglass body of the wire itself is covered in plastic/silicone material helps maintain a straight shape and can handle pressure easily. I like the fact that there isn't any spring incorporated in the design, as this way it's less tiring on the hands while unwinding the string. As for its price of £147.74, it can be said that its a bit off-putting, however the "Klein Tools" brand is baes in the US, Illinois and has been on the store since 1857. It is well known for its quality products that don't disappoint, and after trying out their this Fish tape, i can confirm that this is a tool that has been built to last!

This has all the advantages of metal coil type fish tape but doesn't rust and is non-conductive. The last few metal coils I have had I got about a year out of them before I could no longer move the tape in and out of the case. No such issues with this product - it continues to feed perfectly. My only complaint is the very high price for what it is. If you need a reliable product of this type and are willing to get juiced on price then this is an excellent choice.
