    "Mule tape" can be found at electrical supply houses. It is used to measure conduit lengths and then to pull in wire (phone, electrical, fiber optic...) You will notice there are "foot" marks on the tape. Hope this helps and thanks for twomtips Tuesdays

      Thanks for the clarification.

      Yes, it pulls in wire too. How useful. Thanks for that!

    Mule tape was originally designed to thread through pipes to count length distance etc.
    Most AMAZING use, in my opinion, and WHY I bought some is because an outdoorsman posted a TH-cam video on building a tree platform with one man only.
    It looked so easy and was about seven feet high!
    Look for it!

    Mule tape is available in a variety of lengths, tensile strength and material. My earliest exposure was pulling fiberoptic through inner-duct (corrugated tubing) of which is was pre-deployed within by the manufacturer.

    Good video brother. I love some mule tape. I keep couple hundred feet in the truck and several hanks laying around. I got a buddy who's an electrician. They throw a lot away after big jobs. Good place to check if ya need more

    Mule tape is handy stuff. Great for hammock suspensions, especially using a becket hitch. I think it's pretty low-stretch, because when I use it on my hammock it's never any lower the next day.

    • @instinctsurvivalist

      True. The amount of stretch is a relative term. Over a long period of time, a 20' piece will be slightly longer depending upon how much it has already been used. It could be 1"-5" and the increase is ever so slight over a short span of time. I will have to research the becket hitch. Thanks as always.

      Saw the video on the Becket on Ultimate Hang. GOOD STUFF! Thanks again.

      Yeah it's very easy and really handy. The mule tape makes it easy to undo because it's made to be slick for pulling wires and stuff through conduit. Some other types of cordage/webbing aren't as easy to undo once they've been loaded.

    Good points on the gloves. They do help. I carry all kinds of strings and ropes. Even got some yarn i carry cause y not it makes birds nest knots

      GREAT thought on the yarn. I have cotton string in my jeep for the exact same reason.

    Mule tape is used to pull wire through conduit and long pipes. Sold in electrical section. Use RIT dye to change i from white to green, black, brown whatever you want!

    I was told the original use of mule tape was to pull fiber optic cable through the underground conduit pipes some were a 1/4 mile long.

    • @instinctsurvivalist

      Exactly. Pulling wire or cable is the exact use of it.

    Plumbing - it's slippery for fishing conduit

      Nice and good point. It does have a slippery feel to it. Thanks for watching.
