Specifications

Three types of Rod
Condux offers three types of duct rod: Cobra®, Python®, and Mini-Cobra®. Each has a glass reinforced composite core jacketed in rugged plastic coating to ensure long life. All three have excellent flexural strength, compressive strength, fatigue resistance, and memory. They also have favorable electrical and thermal properties that make them safe for use in cable-occupied duct. They are suitable for pulling back winch line or small diameter cable.



COBRA®:
Cobra is our highest quality rod, Cobra Rod
designed for heavy-duty applications. It gets its extra strength from a unique construction process that ensures greater rigidity and strength, enabling it to endure the additional force required for long duct runs with multiple bends and sweeps. A braided wrap of reinforcing fibers increases its rigidity and helps bond the core with the outer plastic coating. The coating is made from a polymer blend for greater toughness and superior abrasion resistance to ensure extra long life. Includes one male and one female end fitting, and a tapered head.

PYTHON®: Our Python rod is best suited forPython Rod
less demanding applications. It has strength properties similar to our Cobra rod, but is more flexible. Also, like the Cobra, it has a heavy-duty outer plastic coating to resist abrasions and reduce wear. Includes one male and one female end fitting, and a tapered head.


MINI-COBRA®: Our Mini-Cobra rod includesMini-Cobra Rod
our 3/16" (5 mm) and 1/4" (6 mm) diameter rods used primarily for smaller duct sizes and shorter runs. The rod has the same flexibility and strength features of our Python rod and comes wound in 16" (406 mm) and 24" (610 mm) cages in 50' (25 m) to 600' (200 m) lengths. Includes two male end fittings and two tapered heads.
