Work trucks have limited space, but it’s vital to have all the equipment truck owners need to get the job done right the first time. A wide range of industries, including utilities, fueling, construction, landscaping, plumbing, and many others use reels for organizing and deploying hoses and cables, which play a significant role on work trucks.
Quality and performance are must-haves for work trucks, where time is money and failure is not an option. There are many reasons why truck owners should choose superior reels designed and manufactured to the highest standards.
THE ROUGHER, THE BETTER
In the field, it’s best to be prepared for the worst, and work crews don’t get a break if it’s not a nice day. Wind, rain, ice, dust, sand, mud, snow, slush – work crews face it all in a day’s work. Heavy-duty reels made with top-quality materials are designed to withstand whatever Mother Nature has in store.
Hannay Reels heavy-duty 1500 Series manual and power rewind reels feature 3/16-inch-thick discs and an eight-inch diameter, 14-gauge steel drum to manage hose pressures up to 10,000 psi, delivering increased longevity and peace of mind for high-pressure water and pneumatic applications.
BUILT TO SQUEEZE IN
With a lot of equipment to carry around a jobsite, there’s no wiggle room for wasted space. Keeping hoses and cables organized in work areas saves valuable time, improves safety, and extends their working lives.
The Hannay Reels N700 Series spring-rewind reel helps crews maximize space with a narrow frame and a compact mounting base, making it ideal for use in limited-space work environments. Specially engineered to streamline pneumatic needs, lubrication, washdown, water transfer, and general industrial applications, N700 Series hose reels can easily attach to trucks and overhead cranes thanks to a wide range of roller positions providing multiple mounting options. The spring rewind functionality simplifies pickup and storage, and a non-sparking ratchet assembly unit makes it safer to operate in hazardous areas. The unit handles 1/4-inch through 1/2-inch I.D. hose and hose pressures up to 10,000 psi.
GET IN THERE
You can’t always park your truck close to the job at hand, so reels need to efficiently accommodate long lengths of hose and cable. Available with either manual- or power-rewind capabilities, the lightweight E1500 hose reel manages hoses with 3/8- through 5/8-inch I.D. and pressures up to 10,000 psi.
The manual-rewind version comes complete with a cam-lock drag brake, spring-actuated pin lock, and direct crank rewind. The power-rewind version offers a chain-and-sprocket drive powered by an electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic motor.
Also available are a range of lightweight portable reels for deploying hose, cable, rope, or wire close to the worksite. For example, the ATC 1250 is equipped with a removable steel handlebar and pneumatic tires, making it ideal for remote jobs in construction, agriculture, and grounds maintenance.
SAFETY FIRST
Static grounding reels, also known as static discharge reels, are used across a broad range of applications, including vehicle and aircraft fueling, chemical plants, grain silos, rescue and hazmat operations, bulk powder transfer stations, terminals, and fuel refineries.
These specialized reels dissipate static electrical buildup for equipment operating in hazardous environments where a discharge could cause a spark.
The SGCR grounding reel is independently tested to 43 kA for 30 cycles, helping to meet OSHA requirements for vehicle grounding. Equipped with a built-in cable hoop and automatic spring rewind, the SGCR grounding reel offers speed, convenience, and improved safety for crews with no time to waste and no margin for error.
GRACE UNDER PRESSURE
Ideal for hydraulic and spray applications, the N600 hose reel is designed with a narrow frame and numerous roller positioning options to accommodate specific space and mounting requirements. Designed for 1/4-inch through 1/2-inch I.D. hose, the N600 is a dual-fluid-path reel that can handle standard fluid temperatures from minus-15° F to 250 °F (minus-26° C to 121° C) and hose pressures up to 10,000 psi.
FUELED AND READY
Remote job sites need fuel and lubrication on the move, and the 800 spring rewind reel is ideal for fuel dispensing and waste oil evacuation. Built larger and stronger for heavy-duty applications, the 800 reel features a roll-formed channel frame and an array of roller positioning options. It accommodates 3/4-inch or one-inch I.D. hose and standard pressures up to 6,000 psi.
SIMPLE TO MAINTAIN
Crews need their equipment to work as hard as they do, but even the best reels are subject to wear and tear over time. Robust, ruggedly built reels need to be maintained now and again to maintain top performance and deliver long life.
Most reels are engineered to enable truck owners to quickly maintain and even replace components when needed. They feature bolted-on components and conveniently located ball bearings and swivel joints for swift, simple maintenance that allows crews to jump right back into the job without significant delays.
