150m Cobra Reel (6mm/9mm)

The 150m Cobra Reel is a long-reach glass fibre rodding system designed for extensive duct runs and complex utility installations. Available in 6mm “Midi” or 9mm “Medi” diameters, it features a radially reinforced core, a high-density protective sheath, and a heavy-duty steel frame with integrated wheels for easy mobility.

Mainline Transmission Reach Profiling: Features a comprehensive hundred-and-fifty-meter rod length built for cross-country civil infrastructure tracking.
Anti-Torsional Rod Balancing: Formulated to resist spiraling inside wide-diameter industrial pipelines during deep insertion.
Dual Axial Bearing Hub: Uses a heavy-duty central bearing mechanism to ensure smooth, low-effort rod dispensing.
Tough Sealed Termination Ends: Fixed with rugged crimped connectors to ensure the internal continuity wire never breaks away.

FAQs

What diameter options are available for this 150m reel?

This extended 150m reel configuration is available in either 6mm or 9mm rod diameters to suit various pipe sizes and balance flexibility against necessary pushing rigidity.

Does the reel feature a mechanism to prevent unwanted uncoiling?

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

Can we hire this unit for short-term projects?

Yes, the 150m Cobra Reel is available for flexible short-term or long-term hire, offering a practical, cost-effective tool for extensive temporary duct rodding or line tracing contracts.

What fittings are attached to the ends of the rod?

The rod ends feature securely crimped brass threaded guide tips, allowing operators to easily screw on pulling eyes, clevises, or transmitting sondes for deep utility tracking.

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

A 6mm rod offers better elasticity for navigating structural bends in medium-sized conduits, while a 9mm rod provides the high column strength needed to prevent buckling over a full 150m push.

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.

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 150m 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.

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.

What type of frame does the reel utilize?

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