Product Description

Traceable Duct Rodder with Copper or Steel Wire

High-conductivity cable installation tool designed for efficient cable installation and maintenance in conduit systems.

Overview

The Traceable Duct Rodder is engineered for efficient cable installation and maintenance in conduit systems. Equipped with copper or steel traceable wire, it ensures excellent electrical conductivity for detection and tracing during underground or enclosed duct installations. This essential tool improves installation accuracy and reduces conduit damage for telecommunications, power, and fiber optic line projects.

Product Definition

A duct rodder is a flexible rod used to guide cables through conduits, ducts, or pipes. The traceable version includes copper or steel wire integrated into the rod, allowing easy detection with compatible locators.

Flexible and strong rod material for long conduit runs
Copper or steel traceable wire for accurate detection
Smooth surface to minimize friction with cables

Key Features

Traceable Wire Integration: Copper or steel wire embedded along the rod enables electromagnetic detection for precise duct path tracing
Excellent Conductivity: High-quality copper or steel provides low resistance and reliable electrical tracing
Durable Rod Construction: Made from high-strength fiberglass or reinforced PVC, resistant to bending, twisting, and abrasion
Smooth, Low-Friction Surface: Minimizes damage to cables and conduits during installation
Lightweight & Easy to Handle: Portable for field use, reduces operator fatigue, suitable for long duct runs

Advantages

Accurate traceability with integrated wire for instant location detection
Wide application for fiber optic, telecom, and electrical cable installation
Durable and long-lasting, resistant to harsh environments and moisture
Reduced cable damage with smooth rod surface and reinforced structure
Easy integration with standard duct rodder traceable locators

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the rodder be used in long or curved ducts?

Yes, flexible design allows easy navigation through long, bent, or narrow ducts.

Which wire type is better, copper or steel?

Copper offers superior conductivity and tracing sensitivity; steel is stronger and more abrasion-resistant for longer runs.

How is the traceable wire detected?

Use an electromagnetic duct rodder locator compatible with the wire type.

Can the rod length be customized?

Yes, lengths from 30m to 100m or longer can be manufactured based on project needs.

Is the rod resistant to moisture and corrosion?

Yes, fiberglass or reinforced PVC rod with coated wire ensures durability in wet or corrosive environments.
