This flexible tool was designed exclusively for the trade and DIY enthusiasts.
The Cable Tongue is designed for pulling cables through walls, above ceilings, below floors and anywhere else a cable needs to go.
IT’S FLAT
There are 100’s of tools on the market designed for pulling cables, none of which are flat. Have you ever tried to pull cables past insulation in a wall? The Tongue is flat, and therefore it will keep a straight path up a wall.
STRONG AND FLEXIBLE
The Tongue can be stored straight or coiled. It is a specially designed plastic that you can bend and twist it into the shape you need.
PERFECT DIMENSIONS
The right length for 99% of walls, the right thickness meaning it is strong yet flexible and the right width allowing the Tongue to slide through walls and not veer off in another direction.
When you receive your new Cable Tongue, it will be tightly coiled for shipping. Some people prefer to keep the tongue like this for storage in a tool bag but most professionals choose to coil the Tongue back on itself in a large loop and tape. This will mean the tongue is still coiled but is more manageable. Another option for Cable Tongue storage is in a van roof tube. This keeps the tongue completely straight.
Example of use: If the Tongue is being used to pull cables through a partition wall (insulation filled plaster board wall with vertical braces), then you will need a hole where the Tongue will enter the wall and an exit hole. Simply push the Tongue into the entry hole and the Tongue will slide past any insulation or obstructions in the wall due to its unique smooth, flat shape. Once the Tongue has exposed itself at the exit hole, you will now need to tape your cables onto the rear of the Tongue. You can now pull your cables through making sure that you guide the cables through smoothly, eliminating any damaged cables.
