Hi,

Just wandering what to use to get an armoured through a new duct which has been installed prior to me being on site without a pull rope.
Longest run is about 30 meters with probably 2 bends and is about 3 inch diameter but is the flexible type with ridges.
Will rods go that far and round bends especially with it being the ridged type of duct?
I have seen the continuous rod on a reel that bt etc use, is this my only option to hire one and are they flexible enough etc to go round bends of this size etc?

Thanks
 
How about combining some of the ideas.
Get a mouse from a pet shop and tie some thin fishing line to it. Bung it down one end of the ducting and the fire compressed air at it until it come out the other side. Then use fishing line to pull through a tougher line (of any sort) then you can attach you cable to this.
