Product Description
Milwaukee 5 ft. Low Flex Fish Stick
Model Number: 48-22-4149
The Milwaukee 48-22-4149 is a 5 ft. Low Flex Fish Stick — a stiffer-compound flexible fiberglass rod for fishing wire, cable, and pull strings through finished wall cavities, ceiling spaces, and the confined routing paths of low-voltage, electrical, and data installation work where the routing path requires more column strength for longer horizontal pushing runs than the more flexible high-flex and mid-flex versions provide. The 5 ft. base section connects to additional 5 ft. sections through the system's quick-connect coupling for building longer continuous fish stick lengths for deeper cavity routing. The low flex designation indicates the stiffest compound in Milwaukee's fish stick lineup — providing the most column strength for pushing through longer horizontal conduit runs and wall cavities where more flexible rods would bow and buckle under the push force needed to advance the rod to the far end of the cavity without adequate axial rigidity to transmit the push force efficiently.
The low flex fish stick is the right choice for routing paths with longer horizontal runs where the fish stick must be pushed rather than guided — the higher column stiffness maintains enough rod straightness to transmit push force from the near end through to the tip without the rod folding back on itself that occurs with flexible rods in long horizontal applications. Milwaukee's fish stick system's tip accessories thread onto the leading section for magnetic retrieval, glow-tip visibility, and other fishing assistance methods. Available in mid flex and high flex for applications requiring more bending compliance through tight corners and obstacles.
