What are the main types of duct rodders, and how do I choose the right one for my project?

2025-08-16

The primary types of duct rodders are classified by their material and application. The most common and versatile type is the fiberglass duct rodder, which offers an excellent balance of flexibility and strength. When choosing, consider the following:

  • Diameter: A larger diameter (e.g., 10mm+) provides more rigidity and strength for long, straight runs and heavier cables, while a smaller diameter (e.g., 4.5-6mm) is more flexible and ideal for navigating tight bends in smaller conduits.

  • Length: Ensure the rodder length exceeds the longest section of conduit you need to navigate.

  • Material: While fiberglass is standard, other materials like steel and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) have specific applications. Our fiberglass rodders are designed with a high-quality polymer jacket for superior durability and wear resistance.
