3/16 In 100 ft Fiberglass Fish Tape
This fish tape reaches 100 ft and uses a 3/16 in fiberglass core rated at 500 lb tensile strength. It pulls wire from 24 AWG up to 10 AWG through conduit. The non-conductive material allows use around live circuits. Electricians and maintenance technicians choose it for long residential or commercial pulls.
Tuff-Grip Pro Rotating Case With Leader
The Tuff-Grip Pro case measures 12 in diameter and winds the tape on a rotating spindle that reduces kinking. A built-in leader attaches directly to the wire bundle for faster starts. The plastic housing resists impact on job sites and keeps the fiberglass clean between jobs.
Installation Notes And Common Issues
Feed the leader into the conduit first then push the tape steadily to avoid binding at bends. The fiberglass can splinter if pulled past its 500 lb limit or dragged across sharp metal edges. Inspect the tip before each use and replace the tape if the core shows fraying.

Questions about this item
How often will the 3/16 in fiberglass tape need replacing?
The fiberglass tape with structural glass core resists kinking and corrosion, so replacement is only needed if the tape is physically damaged or the 500 lb tensile strength is exceeded.
What limits continuous pulling with the 100 ft tape?
The 500 lb tensile strength and 10 AWG maximum wire capacity set the practical limit; exceeding either risks snapping the tape or jamming the leader.
Does the plastic Tuff-Grip Pro case get hot during all-day use?
The non-conductive fiberglass tape and plastic case do not generate heat; the rotating case design keeps winding effort low even during extended pulls.
