Here’s something I hadn’t though of before, but apparently the pros know all about: wire pulling lubricants. Rather than just pulling harder — my up-till-now preferred method of coaxing wire through conduit — pros apply a little lubricant to help the wire on its way. According to an A/V installer friend of ours, Klein makes one of the installers’ faves.
Why is it that so many manufacturers seem to equate “small” with “cheap?” Thankfully Klein doesn’t follow that line of thinking: These are some truly comfortable and easy-to-use screwdrivers — even if they are small.
