The Klein Tools 56003 is a 125-foot, 1/8-inch wide high-strength spring steel fish tape for long conduit runs in commercial and residential applications. The tape is stiff for long runs and suited to heavy-duty wire pulls. Laser-etched descending 1-foot increment markings assist conduit depth measurement and tape payout tracking. A full-grip style handle with raised finger grips and a uniquely sloped design optimizes hand position for quick hand-over-hand rewinds. Polypropylene case and handle provide maximum shock and impact resistance. Succeeded by the 56333. No longer in production.
Is the 56003 still available?
The 56003 has been discontinued. The closest current replacement is the 56333 (1/8-inch x 120-foot steel tape), which covers the same application with a 5-foot shorter run length.
What replaced the 56003?
The 56333 at 120 feet is the current standard for mid-length steel tape pulls. For longer runs, the 56334 (240 ft) is the next step up.
Does the 5-foot difference between 125 ft and 120 ft matter in practice?
For the vast majority of conduit runs, no — 5 feet is within normal tape reserve margin. If you specifically require 125 feet of reach, confirm the 56333's 120-foot length is sufficient before purchasing.
