Polyester Electric Fish Tape Cable Puller (Catalogue Item 1 Of 2)
A polyester-based fish tape for pulling cable through conduit, wall cavities and floor ducts. The tape is 3 mm in diameter and comes in 10 m, 20 m and 30 m lengths, supplied with a flexible steel leader and interchangeable terminals and eyelet. The polyester material is non-conductive and resists corrosion, making it suitable for use in occupied ducts and damp environments. Colour is white as standard and can be changed. The buyer's brand can be printed to order.
- Polyester body is non-conductive, so it can be used safely in ducts with live conductors
- Resists corrosion, so it performs reliably in damp risers and outdoor conduit
- Available in 10 m, 20 m and 30 m lengths, covering both short and long runs
- Flexible steel leader starts the run, and interchangeable terminals and eyelet allow for different cable types
- Colour and printed brand are customisable, which supports own-label and private-label programmes
Where It Is Used
- Pulling cable through occupied conduit where live conductors are present
- Running new circuits through damp or outdoor conduit where steel tapes would corrode
- Working in residential and light commercial buildings with tight bends and multiple turns
- Field use by maintenance electricians who need a durable, non-conductive tape in their toolkit
- Stocking a single product line that covers multiple job types with different length needs
Who It Is For
- Electrical wholesalers and importers stocking electrician hand tools
- Retail and hardware chains that need a full length range under one own-brand SKU
- Electrical contractors doing power, telecom and data cabling
- Maintenance teams in buildings with existing live wiring
- OEM and private-label buyers who want their own brand printed on the product
Problems It Solves
- Steel fish tapes cannot safely enter ducts with live conductors; polyester does not conduct
- Steel tapes corrode in damp environments and bind inside conduit; polyester resists corrosion
- A fixed head limits the type of cable that can be pulled; interchangeable terminals and eyelet solve this
- Buyers who stock only one length may miss out on jobs; three lengths cover most common runs
- Wholesalers need a single product that can be branded and mixed in containers; this fits that need
Technical Features
- Round tape profile, so it rotates freely inside conduit without catching on edges
- Polyester construction rated as non-conductive for use in occupied ducts and panel boxes
- Tape diameter 3 mm
- Bending radius of 1-1/2 in
- Model codes run P1000 to P3000 in 10 m, 20 m and 30 m lengths

Compared With The Alternatives
| Compared With | How This Product Differs |
|---|---|
| Steel fish tape | Steel is stiffer for long straight runs, but it conducts and corrodes. Polyester is the choice when the duct is occupied or damp. |
| Fiberglass cable puller | Fiberglass rods are stiffer and better for pushing through straight pipe. Polyester tape coils into a case and handles bends more easily. |
| Nylon cable puller | Nylon is more flexible and easier to handle in tight bends. Polyester has similar non-conductive properties but may be more resistant to certain environmental conditions. |
Use Guide
- Feed the steel leader into the conduit first, letting the polyester tape follow it through the bend
- Fit the terminal or eyelet that matches the cable being pulled before starting, not during the run
- Keep the pull within the 200 lb rating; if the run binds, clear the obstruction instead of increasing force
- Do not force the tape past its 1-1/2 in bending radius at the entry point
- Wipe and re-coil the tape into its case after each use to prevent grit from scoring the surface
Polyester Electric Fish Tape Cable Puller FAQ
Is this fish tape safe to use in conduit that already has live cable in it?
Yes. The polyester body is non-conductive, which makes it suitable for use in occupied ducts and panel boxes. Normal site isolation practices still apply.
What lengths are available?
10 m, 20 m and 30 m. The model codes are P1000, P2000 and P3000.
Can we have it in our own colour and brand?
Yes. White is standard, and both the colour and the printed brand can be changed for own-label orders. Send us the colour reference and artwork for confirmation.
What comes in the box besides the tape?
A flexible steel leader, plus interchangeable terminals and an eyelet, so the head can be adapted to different cable types.
Can we mix this with other products in one container?
Yes. This product can be mixed with other items from the range, including enclosures, protection devices and solar lights, in a single container for distributors and importers.
How do we get exact dimensions and a datasheet before ordering?
Dimensions and a full datasheet are confirmed on enquiry. We can provide them before you place your order.
