Calcetín de tiro de cable Extralink EX.16002 azul amarillo fibra óptica 4,5 mm

The Extralink EX.16002 Cable puller-feeder is a fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) rod system with a 4.5 mm diameter ideal for guided cable pulling and feeding in network and telecom installations. The rod is supplied on a powder-coated blue rack with a manual brake and an integrated guiding eyelet. The FRP filament is covered with a yellow PE sheath for protection and improved sliding, and the system includes a fitted guiding head for easy entry of cables through ducts and conduits.

Advantages

The 4.5 mm fibreglass rod offers a balance of flexibility and tensile strength, resisting bending and tearing during installation. The yellow PE coating improves visibility and sliding performance inside conduits while protecting the glass-fibre core. The powder-coated blue stand stores and transports the rod conveniently and features a manual brake to control unrolling. The integrated guiding head and eyelet simplify alignment and reduce the risk of snags during pulls.

Suitable for

• Pulling and feeding network and telecommunication cables through ducts and conduits
• Indoor and outdoor cable installations where visibility and abrasion resistance are required
• Professional installation work by network technicians and cabling crews
• Maintenance tasks that require controlled unrolling and retraction of pulling rod

Key specifications

• Rod material: fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) glass fibre core
• Rod diameter: 4.5 mm
• Rod sheath: yellow PE protective coating for improved sliding
• Length: 100 m on rack (unwinding system)
• Rack finish: powder-coated blue with manual brake mechanism
• Features: guiding head at rod end and guiding eyelet on rack

How to use

Mount the rack in a stable position and release the manual brake to allow controlled unrolling of the fibreglass rod. Feed the guiding head into the duct or conduit and push the rod forward while maintaining steady, even pressure. Guide the cable behind the head so it follows the rod through the pathway. Use the brake to stop or slow unrolling as needed and retract the rod by rewinding it onto the rack after completion. Inspect the rod and sheath for damage before each use and avoid sharp bends that exceed the rod's bending tolerance.

Recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment (gloves and eye protection) when handling FRP rods. Avoid excessive force or repeated sharp kinks; store the rack in a dry place to prevent contamination of the PE sheath. For long runs or complex bends, use intermediate guides or a lubricant compatible with PE to reduce friction and ease cable feeding.
