Southwire58279840 1/8 in. 240 ft. Steel Fish Tape

Exactly as described and worked perfectly. The hook on the end kept getting caught in the roof of the gas station that I was wiring so I had to straighten out the end but other than that no problems whatsoever.

Got the 125 foot haven’t had any problems with it getting tangled have had it unwound all the way multiple times already and winds back up without getting seized or popping once yet definitely recommend if you don’t wanna chop up 170$ for a Klein or ideal fish tape lot cheaper to replace if the apprentice kinks it too

I used this for two hdmi cable pulls through pre installed paths. I’m not a contractor and never did this before and both pulls were successful. Though I was able to get the job done this item is a classic you get what you pay for. It was VERY difficult to unravel and I was constantly having to ravel and unravel to get the amount of line I wanted as the line kept getting off the track. I would not recommend this if you’re going to be performing cable pulls on an ongoing basis but if you’re like me and just needed to do a couple of easy pulls and wanted a cheaper do it yourself alternative to a professional it will do the job for you.

As advertised

If you are going to be installing electric wiring, especially in old work, you probably will need a fish tape. If I was a pro I would have a fiberglass one, but for my occasional use this metal type is fine,

I ignored the other negative reviews. I figured it was people who just plain didn't know how to use the tool. Sigh, I was wrong. This thing is junk. And, after applying the "fix", guess what? You unspool, spool it 2 or three more times and you gotta open it up again. Move on if you're thinking of getting this.

Hard to reel back in.

Works like a charm! Another great product from Southwire! Fishing wires was easy with this product. Pulled 120’ of wire through 1 1/2” conduit like a breeze.
