The Jameson 15-316-150 Mini Duct Hunter Rodder is designed for locating and mapping underground ducts and pipes, featuring a 150 ft. fiberglass rod with an integrated copper trace wire. Its 3/16 in. diameter supports precise navigation through 1/2 in. to 1-1/2 in. conduit, making it suitable for confined pathways while enabling non-invasive tracing across utility and fiber installations.

Built for accurate detection, the rodder incorporates a 22 AWG copper trace wire that radiates a signal to the surface when energized, allowing compatibility with standard receivers for tracing pipes through walls, floors, and underground routes. It's designed for easy handling and transport, while the fiberglass construction resists rust in plumbing environments. With the ability to trace sewer laterals up to 4 in. in diameter and detect depths up to 10 ft., this rodding reel assists with mapping and identification in fiber optic cable installations and micro-duct applications where tracer wire is not present. A 2.5 in. bend radius allows smooth movement through tight turns, and the included accessory kit supports immediate deployment.

Compact dimensions of 22 in. x 17 in. x 7 in. support portability, while the lightweight frame with handle improves ease of transport between job sites. Designed for smaller conduit systems and detailed tracing work, the The Jameson 15-316-150 Mini Duct Hunter Rodder combines control, visibility, and efficient handling.
