Hey everybody! I’m Lauren with Ohio
Power Tool and today on Power Tool Rundown we’re gonna be taking a look at
the Milwaukee M18 Powered Angler Fish Tape. To jump right into things, here are two kits
that we have in this line: this 120-foot 2873A-22 kit here to my left…and the
240-foot 2873B-22 kit on my right.
Milwaukee also offers a bare tool option,
or power base, for this tool. If you already have M18 batteries lying around and you just
want to purchase your cartridge separately, the 2873-20 bare tool might be the option for you. Milwaukee carries a 120- or 240-foot
steel cartridge, like in these kits here, or if you need a non-conductive cartridge,
the 100-foot 48 – 44 – 5195 is also an option. All of the cartridges are easy to install–you
just open up the quick change latches, place your cartridge inside, close the latches,
snap on your battery, then you’re good to go! These angler fish tapes also feature a unique
Auto-Run Powered Feed and Retract, which requires little effort and cuts down on fatigue on
day-to-day jobs.
The tape automatically retracts so that you have less mess and a clean job site.
The cartridge’s design makes for smoother feeding and retracting, and there is also a variable
speed trigger so that you have complete control. The power base is able to pull up
to 200-feet around 360 degree bends, and is compatible with 3 interchangeable drums–up
to 240-foot steel or 100-foot non-conductive. The durable power base is compatible with
all M18 batteries, and both this and the replacement cartridges make for a long-lasting
solution that will work for years to come. So to sum it all up for you, here’s the rundown: -The Fish Tape automatically retracts
into the drum for a cleaner jobsite -Automatic feed pushes through bends faster
-Variable speed trigger allows for maximum control -Durable powered base and replaceable
drums deliver the longest lasting solution -Quick-change latches allow easy drum swap out
-It’s compatible with all M18 Batteries -Also compatible with 3 Interchangeable
Drums up to 240’ Steel & 100’ Non-Conductive That’s all we have for today!
