60m Cobra Reel (6mm/9mm)

The 60m Cobra Reel is a high-grade glass fibre rodding system designed for installing draw ropes and cables into ducts. Available in 6mm for medium-duty tasks or 9mm for heavy-duty rigidity, it features an abrasion-resistant sheath and a robust, freestanding steel frame.

Extended Push Rod Length: Provides sixty meters of continuous tracking capacity for mid-range structural pipe runs.
High Tensile Composite Matrix: Formulated to resist kinking or snapping when being pushed around sharp plastic junction profiles.
Integrated Cage Friction Brake: Features an adjustable mechanical lock to control reel spinning and prevent bird-nesting accidents.
Weatherized Brass End Fittings: Machined with industry-standard threads to anchor sondes and pulling eyes securely.

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.

Can we hire this unit for short-term projects?

Yes, the 60m 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 diameter options are available for this 60m reel?

This 60m reel configuration is available in either 6mm or 9mm rod diameters to balance the required structural flexibility against pushing rigidity in the duct.

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.

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 60m 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.

What type of frame does the reel utilize?

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

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.

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.
