Heavy Duty Hose Reels

Industrial applications driven by heavy machinery often require the use of heavy power cords, welding cords, or high pressure air/water hoses to operate the equipment. Exceptionally long and bulky hoses can be very problematic if they are not handled correctly. They can present a trip hazard when run across the ground where workers are walking, and they can be very cumbersome and difficult to move around by hand.

Heavy Duty Hose Reels are made for the safe distribution and retrieval of exceptionally long, wide-diameter hoses, power cords, and welding cords. They features additional frame supports to maintain stability and minimize vibrations, and they also feature special drum designs that ensure hoses are guided off the reel and back onto the reel without tangling. Many heavy duty hose reels are spring-driven, retractable reels; others are motor driven or hand crank reels. Some are designed specifically to eliminate electrostatic buildup in volatile atmospheres where sparks can cause explosions.

Anything from air hoses, water hoses, electrical power cords, and welding cords can be wound and retracted using Easy Rack heavy duty hose reels. Heavy duty hose reels are made to be used in all applications under all pressures-- up to 10,000 P.S.I.

Heavy Duty and Super Heavy Duty Safety Hose Reels
In chemical plants, refineries, and other combustible refineries, the patented slow retrieval mechanisms of these spring-driven, heavy-duty reels prevent static buildup that could spark an explosion. The controlled rate of retrieval is 80% slower than that of a conventional hose reel and requires no motor or external power source. Components and hoses also last longer with this heavy duty reel because it does not slam the hose on to the hub at the end of retrieval.

Dual High Capacity Hose Reel
These heavy duty high pressure hose reels are designed for large hose diameters with high volume delivery in low and medium pressures. Heavy duty steel cross supports on all four corners give the reel extra strength and rigidity.

Super Hub, Heavy Duty Hose Reel
The larger chassis and frames on these reels allow for hoses of lengths and larger diameters. Dual axles keep the unit stable and minimize vibration during use.

Compact Heavy Duty Hose Reel
Believe it or not, we actually have a compact heavy duty hose reel that is highly portable and can be installed almost anywhere. These units are made for tubing and air/water pressure hoses and are extremely light weight and easy to install.

Large Capacity Welding Reels
You can obtain either hand crank welding hose reels or motor driven reels through Easy Rack. Both model types are intended for us with exceptionally large diameter hoses of long length. Motorized heavy duty reels are especially useful for managing long, twin line welding hoses. They feature dual brass swivel inlets on either side of the reel to guide the hose during distribution and retrieval and an open drum slot design with direct bevel gear drive.

Automatic & Auto-Rewind Hose Reels

Auto rewind hose reels are spring-driven reels engineered for static discharge. They do not require an external power source to operate. Automatic hose reels featured a patented controlled retraction that operates up to 80% slower than standard spring driven reels. This eliminates the slamming action at the end of the retraction cycle, making operation safer for the worker and prolonging the life of the unit.

Different mounting options are available for a variety of industrial environments, along with automatic hose reels specifically engineered for certain types of hoses and applications. Before purchasing an automatic hose reel, we recommend you carefully look over the following and talk to an Easy Rack specialist about the features, advantages, and benefits that each series line offers. Particularly in flammable atmospheres, it is vital to choose the best auto rewind reel specifically designed for the size and length of the hose or cord you need it for, and for the general work area you will be using it in.

Side Mount Hose Reels
Most auto rewind hose reels are designed to mount on the ceiling or the floor. Some applications, however, require compact, side mount hose reels that can be easily installed and detached from a number of work environments. These auto rewind reels feature 360 degree hose direction that allows the user to operate the reel from any position necessary. This makes them excellent tools to use with air/water service units, tool benches, tool boxes, vertical walls and beams, vehicle lift systems, machine tools, service vehicles, any flat vertical surface that requires a hose reel for efficient distribution and retraction of a hose.

Welding Hose Reels
Easy Rack also carries welding hose reels with auto rewind capability. These units are excellent tools for handling bulky twin line welding hoses. The size of your automatic welding hose reel depends on the length of the welding hose you will be working with. Shorter lengths work well with compact units. Exceptionally long welding hoses require bigger automatic rewind reels with dual axle support built around a larger chassis and frame.

Power Cord Reels
Power cord reels prevent extensions cords from tangling. They are designed for durable, reliable use in a wide variety of manufacturing and heavy duty industrial environments and are a must have for organizations who cannot afford the safety hazard or downtime that can result from tripping over a power cord or accidentally pulling the cord from a power source during critical operations.

The same holds true for gardeners who are tired of tangled hoses and would like a professional garden hose reel.

Static Discharge Cable Reels - Hazardous Locations
In highly combustible environments such as chemical plants, refineries, and weapons factories, a single spark can cause an explosion. It is necessary to suppress static electricity as much as possible in these places to minimize the risk of a catastrophe. Static discharge auto rewind cable reels are built with this specific purpose in mind. Insulating mechanism on this unit include a rubber stop cable clamp and a 50 amp grounding clamp standard with each unit. If necessary, Easy Rack can install a 100 amp copper grounding clamp upon request. Further safety is ensured by a non-sparking locket ratchet that secures the cable at the desired length after the reel has completed automatic hose retraction.

Air, Water, & Electric Hose Reels

Industrial machinery often relies upon pressurized water or air delivered through high pressure air hoses and water hoses. Reels made to store, extend, and retract air hoses and water hoses are essential tools to safe and efficient operations. Without them, hoses would have to be drug over floor space, around corners, and over obstructions. This creates trip hazards to workers passing through the area, and it deteriorates the condition of the hose and reduces its longevity. High pressure hose reels, water hose reels, and electric hose reels keep hoses safely and compactly stored and have proven the best means of distributing hoses and retracting them.

All water hose reels, air hose reels, and electric reels ship standard floor/ceiling mount with the option to side mount. They are made of solid steel construction with a proprietary CPC powder coat finish and can be used either indoors or outdoors regardless of weather conditions. There are four major types of industrial and commercial hose reels available through Easy Rack. These types are determined by the power source used to retract cord or hose and by the types of cord and hoses these reels are intended in use and store in non use.

Motor driven water hose reels
These water hose reels can handle pressures of up to 10,000 PSI and can be as long as 1.400 feet. Motor driven water hose reels are made for hose I.D. ranging from 3/8” to 2”. The motors themselves can be electric, air, or hydraulic power. The low profile outlet riser and open drum slot design makes hose distribution fast and safe. You can obtain these water hose reels with roller guide assemblies, motor switches, and speed controllers. Talk to an Easy Rack specialist about which customization options will work best for you.

Electric Cord and Cable Reels
Electric hose reels are most often used in heavy duty applications for welding and grounding cable and electrical cord distribution. Unit diameters are tailor made for specific wire gauges of 10,12, and 16. Electric cord reels will hold hoses up to 100 feet in length. They feature detachable roller guides and adjustable rubber cord stops to prevent too much cord from being distributed or retracted beyond desired lengths. A multi-position locking racket holds the cord in place, and an adjustable guide arm helps evenly guide cord and wire back onto the reel while it is being retrieved.

Easy Rack will customize your electric reel with any number of electrical accessories. Talk to a specialist about your requirements and see what options are available to you.

Spring Driven Hose Reels
Spring driven air hose reels are usually used with hoses made to handle up to 5,000 PSI in pressure. They can hold up to 125 fee of hose and can be ordered in either steel or aluminum construction. They feature detachable roller guides and an adjustable rubber hose stop. A lubricated, factory-matched, cartridge-style spring motor retracts the reel on command without the need of an external power source. An adjustable guide arm on the reel keeps the air hose evenly distributed over its interior surface.

Hand Crank and Portable Hose Reels
These are large capacity industrial grade air hose reels and water hose reels are made to hold up to 700 feet of hose. They are rated at 10,000 PSI and feature a low profile outlet riser and open drum slot design. You can choose a direct hand crank for retraction/retrieval, or you can order your reel with a bevel gear hand crank for easier and more ergonomic operation. Hand crank air hose reels and water hose reels prevent backlash by means of adjustable tension brakes that slow the reel as more pressure pulls on the hose while it is being extended.

Easy Rack carries commercial shelving, material handling equipment, commercial lighting, pallet trucks, used pallet racks, and modular prefab buildings available nationwide.
