Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityDuct rodding reels and powered rodding machines qualify for the Annual Investment Allowance, so a cash or HP purchase can be deducted from taxable profit in the year of purchase. Lease payments are deductible in full as they're paid. Replacement rods, which wear and occasionally snap during use, are a running cost and are treated separately from the capital equipment on the finance agreement.
Duct rodding equipment is bought by telecoms, utility and civils contractors that need to clear, survey or install a way through underground ducting before cable can be blown or pulled through it. As with other duct-build equipment, purchases are typically tied to a specific framework or rollout contract with a network operator, water company or highways authority, and contractors commonly size and finance their rodding fleet to the duration of the current programme rather than for indefinite future use. Manual rod reels remain in use alongside powered rodding machines, and the choice between them is usually driven by duct length and ground conditions on a given job rather than by one replacing the other outright.
