Ideal Industries 31-1800B-13 Woven Polyester Mule Tape Measuring Tape, Pro-Pull

The Ideal Industries 31-1800B-13 is a woven polyester fiber Mule Tape measuring tape built for electricians, cable installers, and low-voltage contractors who need a durable, low-stretch pull line with an integrated distance reference. Measuring 1300-ft in length and 1/2-Inch in width, this Pro-Pull tape is engineered to withstand the friction and tension loads of conduit and raceway pulls while providing accurate footage markings along its entire run. Its woven polyester construction resists abrasion and stretching far better than conventional fish tape, making it a preferred choice for pulling communication, data, and low-voltage cable through long conduit runs, cable trays, and underground ducts.

Key Features

  • Length & Width: 1300-ft x 1/2-Inch sizing provides ample length for long conduit and duct runs without splicing.
  • Durable Construction: Woven polyester fiber material resists abrasion, fraying, and stretch during high-tension pulls.
  • Pro-Pull Design: Purpose-built as a mule tape pulling line, offering reliable strength for cable and wire installation tasks.
  • Measuring Markings: Integrated footage markings along the tape length allow installers to measure conduit runs and cable lengths as they pull, eliminating the need for a separate measuring tool.
  • Lightweight Flexibility: Flat, low-profile woven tape construction feeds more easily through tight conduit bends and congested cable trays than rigid fish tape.
  • Job-Site Efficiency: Reduces the number of tools needed on site by combining a pulling line with distance measurement in a single product.

Technical Specifications

  • Length: 1300-ft

Ideal Industries 31-1800B-13 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How long is the Ideal 31-1800B-13 mule tape, and will one spool cover a long underground duct run without splicing?
One spool of the Ideal Pro-Pull 31-1800B-13 holds 1300 feet of 1/2 inch wide woven polyester tape, so a single run of that length pulls without a splice. Splicing a pull line is where most jams start, so for long conduit, duct bank, or cable tray runs the full 1300 feet is the point of this size.
2) Does the Ideal Pro-Pull mule tape have footage markings printed on it?
Yes. Footage markings run the full length of the 31-1800B-13, so you can read conduit run length or cable length as you pull instead of chasing a separate measuring wheel or tape. That is the practical reason to run it as a pre-installed line in empty conduit and ducts: the next crew knows exactly how far the run goes.
3) Should I use mule tape or steel fish tape for pulling cable through conduit?
Mule tape like the Ideal Pro-Pull 31-1800B-13 is the better choice on long runs and on bends. It is flat, woven polyester, low-stretch, and feeds through tight conduit sweeps and congested trays more easily than rigid fish tape, and it resists abrasion and fraying under tension. Steel fish tape is still the tool for pushing blind through a short empty raceway, since a flexible tape has to be blown, pushed with rod, or already in place. Use rods or fish tape to get a line in, then pull with the mule tape.
4) What is the correct part number and width for the 1300 foot Ideal Pro-Pull mule tape?
Order Ideal Industries 31-1800B-13. That part number is the 1300 foot by 1/2 inch woven polyester Pro-Pull mule tape. Width matters when you order, since 1/2 inch flat tape lies against the conduit wall and spreads load rather than cutting in the way a round rope does.
5) Will woven polyester mule tape stretch out on a hard pull?
The 31-1800B-13 is woven polyester fiber chosen specifically as a low-stretch line, and it resists abrasion and fraying under the friction and tension of conduit pulls far better than conventional fish tape. Low stretch is also what keeps the printed footage marks meaningful, since a line that elongates under load no longer reads true.
6) Is the Ideal 31-1800B-13 suitable for low-voltage, data, and communication cable installs?
That is its main use. The Pro-Pull tape is built for electricians, cable installers, and low-voltage contractors pulling communication, data, and low-voltage cable through conduit, raceway, cable tray, and underground duct, on both new construction and retrofit work.
