Product Description
A 10-metre cable rod set for pulling cables through walls, ceilings and conduit — built from ten 1-metre sections you connect together for reach, or use singly in tight spots.
What's in the box
- 10x 1m fibreglass composite rods
- Cable hook, mini eye and ring attachments
- Coiled steel 190mm flexi-lead (for bending round corners inside cavities)
- 5mm adaptor, so the set also works with rods from other brands
Why the details matter
The rods are 5mm thick — a middle ground between rigidity (so you can push the rod through a cavity without it buckling) and flexibility (so it can flex round joists and bends). Thinner rods bend more easily but can be harder to control over longer runs; thicker rods are stiffer but less forgiving in tight spaces.
The connectors are triple-bonded steel, built to handle the torsion and pulling force you put through the joints when routing rods through a cavity or conduit run. The rod surface has a high-sheen finish specifically to stop it snagging or splintering as you push it past insulation, cable ties or rough conduit edges — the slimline connectors are shaped the same way, so the join itself doesn't catch.
For CCTV work, this is the kind of tool you reach for when running camera cable from a DVR/NVR position through a wall or loft space, rather than surface-trunking every run.

Frequently Asked Questions
What comes with the CABLE-ROD-10m-5mm set?
Ten 1m rods, a cable hook, mini eye and ring, a coiled steel 190mm flexi-lead, and a 5mm adaptor so it also works with other brands' rods.
Why 5mm rods rather than a thicker or thinner size?
5mm is described as the balance point between rigidity, so the rod pushes through without buckling, and flexibility, so it can flex round bends and joists.
Can I use this set with cable rods I already own?
Yes — it includes a 5mm adaptor specifically so the rods can be used with other brands' equipment.
Will the rods snag on insulation or conduit edges?
The rods have a high-sheen fibreglass composite finish and slimline connectors, both designed to minimise snagging and splintering as you push them through.
