I was wanting to buy the dang thing at the supply house just cause. I was wondering if its even worth the money though.

I keep seeing it here when I'm wandering around the isles.

For $4.97 I'm just gonna buy it & try it to save on wasting tape & then having to pick up scraps of tape off the floor.

It looks groovy. :thumbup:

Picture of what Im talking about. They say you don't have to strip the wire just place in bend and pull.

Hows it work?

Some chain does the same thing.

Some chain does the same thing.

I've heard that but never tried it. So #12 jack chain is what you guys use? Have you lost any wires on a pull since you're not using tape?

I'm tempted to try the chain or southwire tool. I sure wouldn't miss taping up heads all the time.

the sharp cut "V" on this pull toy looks like a much better grab/bite on the wire than chain would be. I heard about chain before but have never tried it, so guessing.

I gotta grab one of these pull toys next time I'm at HD

I was thinking the same thing but I'd have to try them both to see.

if it doesn't work like I want, I'll turn it into a $5 roach clip to put into use between service calls :whistling2:

I used the rack-a-tiers one,It said works even on half inch wasn’t really that true we used it just for home runs 3/4 pipes with full boats.Worked really well almost cut head making time in half.The only downfall was that a full boat with ground you had to use this extension witch was always getting tangled up.This has plenty of room.If I has a HD with in 100 miles I would buy the sh** out of them.

It would be silly not to tape the wire. What if you need to pull it back a bit?

 

[Daniel Case]

Thats what im saying any snags either. I wouldnt risk losing a wire over a couple wraps of tape

didn't make HD today to get one, or anywhere. lol

that makes sense, maybe they didn't think about that when writing the product review?

I never thought about that either [too busy thinking about how many joints in a row I could get on it], I would have first time I had to pull back a little and hung up though :whistling2:

Sash Chain, $0.79 per foot. Works AMAZING

Sash chain is also a lot stronger than similar sized jack chain.

 

[Celtic]

So #12 jack chain is what you guys use?

:no:

jack chain is not going to work:

The way the links are built is not a good design for pulling...


Sash chain on the other hand:

..is much stronger and has V-notchs built right in :thumbsup:
