Streamline Steel Fish Tape

The Gardner Bender FTS-50B is a 50-foot steel fish tape built for electricians pulling wire through conduit. Its flat profile measures .125-inch wide by .6-inch thick and handles up to 500 pounds of pulling strength. The tape operates at a maximum of 120 volts and comes in a white finish.

Shatterproof Reel With Trigger Winder

A shatterproof housing protects the tape from job-site impacts while four viewing windows show the remaining length. Form-fitting finger grips inside the reel give a secure hold during rewind. An exclusive trigger mechanism maintains constant tension and wipes excess lubricant off the tape as it retracts.

50-Foot Refillable Length

The 50.00-inch tape is wound directly into the housing without retaining clips or sticky residue. When the steel tape wears out, the reel disassembles quickly for a straightforward refill. This length suits standard residential and light-commercial conduit runs.

Questions about this item

How much pulling force can the 50 ft steel tape handle?

The flat steel tape is rated for up to 500 pounds of maximum strength, so it can handle heavy wire pulls without stretching or breaking.

What are the exact tape dimensions that determine conduit fit?

The tape measures .125 in. wide by .6 in. thick, giving a slim profile that fits standard conduit bends while staying rigid enough to push through.

How do you replace the tape without losing the trigger tension?

The reel disassembles quickly; wind the new tape directly into the housing, engage the trigger assembly, and it will maintain constant tension and wipe lubricant automatically.
