Description
Bulk fluid delivery lines left on equipment shop floors create slip hazards and vehicle crush damage. The Coxreels Heavy Duty Spring Driven hose reel manages 35 feet of 3/4-inch inside diameter hose for air, water, and lubricants. It operates up to 1500 PSI under demanding continuous duty. The single-pedestal arm will twist if pulled sideways around vehicle tires.
Built on a single pedestal frame fabricated from heavy 1/4-inch robot-welded carbon steel plate, this reel uses an 8-gauge steel base with stiffening gussets. A 1-inch solid cold-rolled steel axle supports the fluid drum. The flow path contains a 3/4-inch full-flow electroless nickel-plated steel swivel sealed with nitrile packings, maintaining fluid velocity without cavitation. A sealed lubricated steel power spring provides consistent pull-back torque without requiring periodic tension adjustments.
High Volume Hardware Performance Matrix
Fleet maintenance shops require rapid bulk fluid dispensing without cumbersome floor hose tangles. This compact single-arm reel secures short high-volume lines.
- 1500 PSI working pressure rating accommodates commercial air distribution and bulk engine oil transfer.
- 35-foot 3/4-inch hose storage capacity provides optimal length for fast truck bay servicing.
- Full-flow 3/4-inch fluid swivel minimizes line restriction during rapid oil and water delivery.
- Single-pedestal steel arm features multi-position indexing for ceiling, wall, or floor mount locations.
- Cartridge-style main spring motor delivers consistent rewinding power across thousands of cycles.
- Multi-position locking pawl mechanism secures working line length without spring tension pull-back.
- Heavy-duty rolled steel drum flanges eliminate sharp metal edges to protect outer hose jackets.
Fluid Delivery Bench Telemetry Data
Shop flow trials measure flow efficiency and heat generation under high-volume transfer loads. Pushing 18 GPM water through the 3/4-inch swivel creates a minimal 12 PSI pressure drop across the drum core. Swivel bearing temperature rises by 9°F during continuous recirculation testing over three hours. Decibel meters measure 71 dBA at 3 feet during spring retraction. The internal spring cartridge delivers 24 inch-pounds of retraction torque, pulling 35 feet of fluid-filled heavy rubber hose across greasy concrete floors without operator assistance.
Field Service Maintenance Boundaries
Tight shop bays expose reels to rough off-axis yanking. Do not mount this single-pedestal unit on high-vibration mobile service trucks without supplemental support, as cantilever forces will fatigue the base welds over time. Avoid hydraulic systems exceeding 1500 PSI.
- Apply lithium grease to ratchet teeth and latch pawl every 90 days.
- Inspect swivel seals for fluid weeping every 50 hours of fluid dispense.
- Verify tightness of structural wall mounting bolts every 6 months.
Commercial Warranty Package Contents
Factory terms include a 2-Year limited warranty against structural metal fractures, main drive spring defects, and swivel casting failures. The shipment includes the bare steel hose reel, external 3/4-inch nickel-plated swivel, multi-position guide arm, adjustable rubber hose bumper stop, and mounting instructions without hose.
