Whether it's for construction or domestic Audio Video set up, cable rods are an essential part of electrical cable management. Cable rods typically work by affixing the end of a cable to the rod in order to channel or guide it through a narrow space or hole. For dragging cabling through crawl spaces, ceiling ducts and wall cavities and retrieving cables from difficult to reach places, the RS range of cable rods provides a safe and practical solution and features products from well-known brands such as CK, Hellermann Tyton, Schneider Electric, and our own RS Pro.
