The Jonard Tools MRS-24 MagneTriever® makes the finding part a magnet's job. Drop the 10 ft ball chain down the cavity from the hole in the top plate, with the 3\/4 in stop ring keeping the end from disappearing into the wall; pull the baseboard, drill the bottom hole, and feed in the 24 in flexible magnetic retriever, bent into a Z or an S, sweeping it back and forth until its neodymium magnets catch the chain. Bring the chain to the hole, grab it with the expandable retriever hook, which reaches up to 18 in, tie a pull string to the eyelet on the chain's end, and use the string to pull the cable through so the chain never carries the load. The retriever, the MRS-RH20 hook, the MRS-BC10 chain, and a storage pouch make up the kit.

The FTS-240 steel tape and FTF-1125 fiberglass tape cover the long conduit runs; the MagneTriever is for the top-to-bottom drop inside a finished wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to Know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFind the stud bay before you drill the top plate, and drill the top hole over the bay the outlet is in; the chain only goes where gravity takes it, so a hole over the wrong bay or over a fire block puts the chain where the retriever can't reach. Let the chain hang free and jiggle it if it hangs up on insulation, and keep a finger on the stop ring so it stays at the top hole. Bend the retriever to suit the cavity, flatter for a shallow wall, deeper for a 2 by 6, and sweep slowly; the magnets grab the chain from a few inches, and a fast sweep flicks it off. Once the chain is out, tie the pull string to the eyelet with a knot that will pass the holes and pull the cable with the string, since the chain is a locator, not a pulling line, and a chain stretched under a cable's load is a chain that breaks in the wall. The eyelet connects to most light wires directly for a short, easy pull. Neodymium magnets are strong, so keep the retriever away from cards, phones, and magnetic media, and keep fingers out from between the magnet and anything steel. Cut the power to any circuit in the wall before you start; the chain and the retriever are both conductive. The retriever length is 24 in and the hook reaches 18 in, which covers a standard wall from the bottom hole; a taller reach is a longer retriever, and the baseboard hole should be low so the two can meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\t\u003cthead\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003e\n\t\t\t\tSpec\n\t\t\t\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003e\n\t\t\t\tDetail\n\t\t\t\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\t\u003ctbody\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tModel\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tMRS-24\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tManufacturer\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tJonard Tools\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tType\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tMagnetic wire fishing kit\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tRetriever Length\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\t24 in (60.96 cm), flexible\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tMagnet Type\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tNeodymium\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tBall Chain\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tMRS-BC10, 10 ft, with eyelet\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tStop Ring\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\t3\/4 in\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tRetriever Hook\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tMRS-RH20, expandable, reach up to 18 in\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tKit Includes\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\t24 in flexible magnetic retriever, MRS-RH20 expandable retriever hook, MRS-BC10 ball chain with 3\/4 in stop ring, storage pouch\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tDesign\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tPatented\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tWarranty\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tLifetime\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tShipping\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tShips direct from the manufacturer, allow up to 10 business days\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\t\u003cthead\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003e\n\t\t\t\tDocument\n\t\t\t\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cth\u003e\n\t\t\t\tLink\n\t\t\t\u003c\/th\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\t\u003ctbody\u003e\n\t\t\u003ctr\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\tData Sheet\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003ctd\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/2175\/5714\/files\/Data_Sheet_MRS_24.pdf?v=1728751311\"\u003eMRS-24 data sheet (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003c\/td\u003e\n\t\t\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\t\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\n","brand":"Jonard Tools","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49881525059906,"sku":"MRS-24","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/2175\/5714\/files\/MRS-24_0.webp?v=1728751949","url":"https:\/\/patchcordsonline.com\/products\/24-magnetriever","provider":"Patch Cords Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
