Workforce Series Retractable Air Hose Reel
A clean and orderly work area does not only make your garage or shop look professional but also helps speed up work, prevent accidents, and prolong the service life of your equipment. For one thing, if your tools are well organized and are stored in their proper places, you won’t have to spend time looking for them when they are needed. For another, cluttered equipment can cause tripping that could be detrimental both to you and the equipment.
If you use an air compressor with a rubber air hose, it is advisable to use air hose reels such as the Workforce Series Retractable Air Hose Reel. With an equipment such as this, you can keep your hose safely tucked away whenever it is not in use, safe from getting stepped on, rolled over by your wheeled carts, soiled with grease, oil, or chemicals, and accidentally cut with sharp tools or any other object.
The reel is made of heavy-gauge steel that is coated with corrosion-resistant enamel. It comes with a rubber hose with an internal diameter of 0.25 inch and length of 50 feet. It has a working pressure of 300 PSI while burst pressure is at 1,200. It can function in extreme temperatures ranging from -4° to 210°F.
The auto-rewind all-welded steel drum of the reel winds this hose tightly around itself whenever the hose is not in use and is released. This is because it has a spring motor that is fully enclosed within the reel. As this is packed with grease, you are assured of a smooth operation. This also means that the spring is protected from rust.
The axle is provided with dual support allowing the reel to withstand vibrations when mounted on a mobile platform. Its guide arm can be set in different positions which means that it can be mounted on a workbench, wall, or even ceiling. It incorporates weep holes that are designed to drain moisture from the drum thus helping prevent rust.
