The Klein Tools 56011 is a 50-foot nylon composite fish tape designed for flexibility and easy navigation through conduit runs. The non-conductive nylon tape slides easily over existing wires and through multiple bends. Lightweight and strong, the nylon composite tape resists harsh elements and is strength-rated up to 200 pulling pounds. The 13-inch case diameter allows 15 percent more tape to be reeled in per revolution compared to a standard 12-inch case. Made in the USA. This product is no longer in production.
Is the 56011 nylon fish tape still available?
The 56011 (50 ft nylon) has been discontinued. Klein no longer offers a nylon fish tape. The closest current equivalent is the 50375 (high-flex polyester, 75 ft), which provides a similar lightweight, flexible, non-conductive construction in a longer length.
What replaced the 56011?
The 50375 (high-flex polyester, 3-strand braided, 75 ft) is the current lightweight flexible tape. Polyester at 75 feet offers greater reach than the 56011 at 50 feet with similar flexibility and non-conductive properties.
Why was nylon replaced with polyester in the current lineup?
Braided polyester provides better durability and consistent flexibility across temperature ranges compared to solid-extruded nylon. Klein's current high-flex polyester line delivers improved kink resistance and smoother feeding characteristics.
