ave you ever struggled to route cable under floors and behind skirting? Super Rod are delighted to announce the addition of the Gekko Gripper to their The Gripper was designed by Manchester joiner Dave Reddy.


Dave commented on how the product works, "I designed the Gekko Gripper to make electricians' and plumbers' lives easier when installing pipes and cables through floor voids because at times this can be a problematic task. You simply fit your cables into the gripper, take the larger magnet and place on top of the floor board, position the smaller magnet underneath and simply pull across to the other side using the thumb grip, then simply snap the magnets together and pull to feed the cable through".Malcolm Duncan, MD of Super Rod also commented on the development, "I first met with Dave towards the end of last year. I couldn't believe such a simple looking product could be as effective, but it really is.
