What is the diameter of the pipe?
I prefer to tie a plastic baggie to a lightweight pull string, then use a
shop vacuum to suck it through.
Then use the string to pull the wire.

Subject: [AFMUG] Lubricant for pulling wire in conduit?
I'm at a residential customer install and I may have bitten off more than I
can chew - I agreed to attempt to install on their garage and pull wire to
their house through a pipe (since they have a metal roof the only other
place I can install is on the front of their house - ugly).
It's taking forever to pull that wire due to friction/ angles, and the shop
has no wire-pulling "butter". Would dish soap work or is there something
else easily available?
