Description
Service bays cluttered with separate air hoses and electrical cords create dangerous trip points and tangled floor messes. The Coxreels Hose Reel Dual Purpose reel combines 50 feet of 3/8-inch air hose and 50 feet of 12-gauge GFCI cord. It provides dual utility from one mount. The dual spring canisters bind if retracted without operator guide tension.
Coxreels builds this combo unit from heavy-gauge carbon steel with dual independent spools mounted on a common structural pedestal frame. The pneumatic circuit utilizes a solid brass axle and swivel joint rated for 300 PSI air and water service. The electrical side features a solid copper collector hub transferring 120-Volt current at 15 Amps to a GFCI duplex receptacle. Independent cartridge-style tempered steel power springs provide balanced recoil torque to each separate spool drum.
Field Hardware Performance Matrix
Automotive service bays and mobile equipment trailers require consolidated air and power delivery from a single overhead station. Heavy-gauge dual-pedestal steel framing and independent drive springs deliver dependable fluid and electrical power across active workspaces.
- Dual independent spool drums store 50 feet of 3/8-inch air hose and 50 feet of 12/3 SJTOW electrical cord.
- 300 PSI maximum pneumatic pressure rating accommodates commercial shop compressors and washdown systems.
- Integrated GFCI duplex receptacle trips within 25 milliseconds upon detecting ground current leaks on wet floors.
- Solid brass air swivel and solid copper electrical slip rings maintain leak-free and arc-free continuous operation.
- Dual cartridge spring motors allow safe independent servicing without exposing mechanics to loose spring steel.
- Independent multi-position ratchet pawls hold hose and cord payouts at selected lengths to reduce drag.
- Multi-angle four-roller fairleads guide hose and electrical cable onto spools without pinching outer jackets.
Dyno Load Realities Heat Data
Under full 15-Amp continuous electrical load testing with magnetic drills, coiled cable core temperature climbs to 128°F on the drum in 75°F shop air. Spooling out the full 50-foot cord length drops core temperatures to 95°F. Air flow bench evaluation shows a minor 4.8 PSI pressure drop across the 50-foot air hose at 35 CFM. Both independent spring canisters complete 10000 consecutive recoil cycles without loss of spring tension. Retraction sound levels check in at 64 dBA at 3 feet distance.
Field Service Application Limits
Weighing 78 pounds bare, mounting this dual combination reel overhead requires hoists and four 3/8-inch grade 5 bolts into structural steel. Do not use this air hose for petroleum fuels or immerse the GFCI electrical box in liquid basins. Petroleum fuels degrade rubber hoses, while water intrusion shorts electrical circuits and destroys GFCI sensing boards.
- Test the GFCI test and reset buttons every month to verify ground fault protection.
- Inspect the brass air swivel for moisture leaks every 250 hours of shop compressor use.
- Check mounting base bolts for proper torque every 250 operating hours to counter line vibration.
