HellermannTyton Cable Scout Basic Set 897-90000

The Cable Scout Basic Set stands out by combining ten fiberglass-reinforced rods into a single 6-metre routing system that threads through suspended ceilings, wall cavities, and underfloor spaces without snagging. Unlike single-purpose fish tapes, the mixed flexibility of six medium-flex and four flexible rods lets you navigate tight bends while maintaining push strength.

Highlights

• 10 rods, each 60 cm long, 4 mm diameter, screw together to form a 6 m run
• Rods made of non-conductive fiberglass reinforced plastic (GRP), tensile strength 80 kg
• Includes hook, ring, flexi lead (15 cm), and gender changer (M/F)
• Five cable grips cover diameters 6–9, 9–12, 12–15, 15–18, and 18–21 mm
• Robust storage bag keeps the set organised

In daily use

Assemble the rods as needed, attach the appropriate end piece, and push through the cavity. The threaded M5 connections stay secure under load, and the cable grips pull cables back without damage. The set is compatible with other Cable Scout accessories, so you can extend it later.
