Evik smart rodder
Ready to take any “job site” challenge
Evik is one of the innovative European production leaders in cable laying equipment and solutions with more than 50 years of expertise with a deep understanding of the professional’s needs.
Fiberglass Duct Rodder (FDR) is a time&labor-saving solution for underground cable laying and ideal for complementary objectives such as cleaning the duct or locating paths and obstacles. Due to the above, FDR is a necessary and important tool on cable installations of power, telecommunication, fiber optics cables and more.
By understanding this importance and necessity, Evik provides the industry with two versions of fiberglass rod: one of an exceptional bending radius offering the most advanced mechanical flexibility and another of an outstanding thrust ability which can overcome even the toughest forces during cable laying.
Furthermore, Evik designed and developed an ergonomic metallic reel transforming FDR into FSR (Fiberglass Smart Rodder), facilitating even more the work of the professional while respecting their safety and increasing efficiency.
The expertly designed frame asymmetry facilitates working the FSR in either vertical or horizontal position – covering many different work conditions.
The position of the wheels and handle create the ideal angle and body posture, making lifting, carrying and laying down not only easy but safer for the professional, respecting the harsh conditions of working on a “job site”.
The two rod-out guides provide the possibility of choosing working direction, without moving the FSR to offer maximum adaptability at the “job site’s” environment.
The exceptionally robust and ergonomic two-handle metallic brake facilitates the usage and protects the professional’s hands from injury.
Additional grips (e.x brake and frame handle) offer more comfortable handling.
However, Evik goes even further by developing extra supportive accessories for the professional’s work:
Repair kit – expertly designed for Evik FSR, includes spare parts, manuals, repair guide; upgrading a professional tool into a Repair It Yourself (RIY), saving time and money, two factors very important on the “job site”.
Length meter – easy to apply, by replacing the rod out guide, offers a cost-effective solution for detecting obstacles.
All the above developments prove how important Evik considers the safety and comfort of the professional as well as the efficiency on the “job site” operations.
Evik innovations has transformed a simple tool, into a smart tool which is ready to take any “job site” challenge.
