Klein Tools 56400 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What rods come in the Klein Tools 56400 fish and glow rod kit, and how long is the full run?
Eight fiberglass rods that couple to 33 feet total. You get two 48-inch Low-Flex rods at 1/4-inch diameter, two 18-inch and two 60-inch Mid-Flex glow rods at 3/16-inch, and two 72-inch Hi-Flex glow rods at 5/32-inch. Six of the eight glow. The thick Low-Flex sections push straight runs without buckling; the thin Hi-Flex 72-inch rods bend around corners and into tight cavity turns. Mix the sections to match the pull instead of fighting one stiffness the whole way.
2) What attachments are included with the Klein 56400 kit, and do I have to buy tips separately?
Seven tips ship in the kit: whisk, Double-S hook, magnet, chain, bullet nose, single hook, and twin hook. Nothing else to buy to start pulling. The Double-S hook rotates so wire captures inside its prongs, which is what you want on a heavy or multi-conductor pull that keeps slipping off a plain hook. The magnet and chain are for dropping and retrieving through insulated walls; the bullet nose is for pushing through insulation without snagging.
3) Will the attachments from this kit fit fish rods I already own from Klein?
The tips fit all Klein Splinter Guard fish and glow rods, so if your existing rods are Splinter Guard series the seven attachments in the 56400 kit thread onto them. Rod connectors are stainless steel. Klein-branded rods outside the Splinter Guard line are a different question and the kit does not claim to cover them.
4) Do the glow rods need a UV light or a charger to work?
No charger, no UV torch. The luminescent rods on the Klein 56400 kit recharge in most available light, so ordinary work light or a flashlight pass is enough before you feed them into a dark ceiling or wall cavity. Six of the eight rods in the kit are glow rods; the two 48-inch Low-Flex rods are not.
5) Will the Klein 56400 bag hold longer rods I buy later, and does it have room for tips?
The bag adjusts to take 4-foot, 5-foot, and 6-foot rods, so a 6-foot section you add later still stows. Two exterior zipper pockets hold shorter rods, leaders, and attachments so tips are not loose in the main compartment. Bag body is 1680d fabric with a reinforced bottom and a heavy-duty zipper. Packed, the kit measures 76 x 5 x 3.5 inches and weighs 3.2 pounds, so it rides in a van rack or over a shoulder rather than in a tool tote.
6) Can I buy a single replacement rod if I snap one, or do I have to replace the whole kit?
Individual rods are replaceable. Klein lists 56517, 56516, 56515, 56514, 56513, and 56512 as the replacement parts for the 56400 kit, so a broken 72-inch Hi-Flex or a lost 18-inch section is a one-piece order, not a new kit. That matters for a facilities or MRO crew standardizing on one rod system across techs.
7) What is the thinnest rod in the Klein 56400 kit for getting around a tight corner?
The two 72-inch Hi-Flex rods at 5/32-inch diameter are the thinnest and the most flexible in the set, which is what you run at the turn. Put the 1/4-inch Low-Flex 48-inch rods at the push end for rigidity and finish with the 5/32-inch Hi-Flex at the obstruction. The 3/16-inch Mid-Flex rods, in 18-inch and 60-inch lengths, are the working middle for a moderate bend or a short jog between studs.
8) Do I still get fiberglass splinters in my hands with these rods?
The rods carry a Splinter Guard protective coating over the fiberglass specifically to keep splinters out of your hands. That is the practical difference from bare fiberglass rods, which shed after a season of being dragged over joists and steel studs. Worth knowing if your crew works bare-handed on long pulls.
9) Which Klein accessories extend this fish rod kit for longer or harder pulls?
Klein lists 56511, 56324, 56325, 56430, 56418, 56415, 56409, 56406, and 56312 as accessories that go with the 56400 kit. Add them when 33 feet of coupled rod will not reach or when a pull needs a tip the seven included ones do not cover. Since the attachments interchange across the whole Splinter Guard line, accessories bought for one kit carry over to the next.
