This is the standard grappler used by bounty hunters, soldiers, and security forces galaxy-wide.
It fires a grapple line up to 100 feet distant, it will adhere to any solid surface, and the line can be retrieved after it is fired. The unit makes use of a simple liquid-line canister, retrieval motor, and energy cell to perform all of its line issuing or retrieving functions.
'Trick Shots' are possible thanks to the tip node having both repulsor and attractor node features. Just angle your hand the way you'd like the cable to move as it flies forward.
As long as the cable isn't cut, it can be retracted by the motor, re-liquified by the spinnerets, and will re-fill the liquid line canister. If the line is cut, replacement liquid line canisters are available at any hardware store.
