100m Cobra Reel (6mm/9mm)

The 100m Cobra Reel is an industrial-grade glass fibre rodding system designed for long-distance cable and draw rope installation. Available in 6mm and 9mm diameters, it features a high-tensile reinforced core and a rugged steel frame for heavy-duty utility and telecommunications work.

Long Range Infrastructure Mapping: Pushes easily through full hundred-meter municipal pipeline sections without requiring midpoint access pits.
High Strength Pushing Core: Utilizes an optimised rod thickness to maintain rigidity across long, dark conduit paths.
Heavy Duty Steel Transport Cart: Fitted with a balanced frame assembly to make site movement over rough mud simpler.
Dual Frequency Signal Coupling: Conducts multi-frequency tracing profiles perfectly to enable distinct signal isolation over long distances.

FAQs

What material is the rod constructed from?

The rod features a high-tensile fiberglass core coated with a tough, low-friction polypropylene sheathing that resists abrasion, moisture, and chemical exposure on site.

What diameter options are available for this 100m reel?

This 100m reel configuration is available in either 6mm or 9mm rod diameters to balance the required structural flexibility against pushing rigidity in long ducts.

How should the Cobra Reel be maintained after field use?

Wipe dirt and mud off the rod as it is rewound, check the fiberglass sheathing for deep cuts, and ensure the brass end fittings remain clean.

Can it be used to trace the exact path of a non-metallic pipe?

Yes, if you choose a traceable version with internal copper wires, you can connect a transmitter to the terminal to trace the entire rod length.

What is the primary function of a 100m Cobra Reel?

A Cobra Reel is a continuous flexible fiberglass rod used to push pulling lines, sondes, or inspection cameras through underground ducts, conduits, and pipe networks.

Does the reel feature a mechanism to prevent unwanted uncoiling?

Yes, the steel frame includes an integrated brake or friction latch system to control the feed speed and prevent the fiberglass rod from springing out.

What type of frame does the reel utilize?

It is mounted in a rugged, freestanding steel frame with wheels that allows for stable upright manual deployment, neat rewinding, and secure transport around the jobsite.

Can we hire this unit for short-term projects?

Yes, the 100m Cobra Reel is available for flexible short-term or long-term hire, providing a practical tool for temporary duct rodding or line tracing contracts.

What fittings are attached to the ends of the rod?

The rod ends are fitted with brass threaded guide tips, allowing you to easily screw on pulling eyes, clevises, or transmitting sondes for utility tracking.

How does a 6mm rod differ from a 9mm rod in performance?

A 6mm rod offers better flexibility for navigating moderate bends in standard ducts, while a 9mm rod provides higher stiffness to prevent buckling over longer distances.
