Product Information

Full details

This Draper Air Hose Reel is designed for professionals and DIYers who need an organized and accessible air hose solution. Its key benefit is the smooth auto-rewind mechanism with a free-stop feature, preventing hose tangles and allowing for convenient, precise hose length control. A potential caveat is the need for secure mounting, as with any wall-mounted equipment. The reel features a durable, impact and UV-resistant polypropylene case, a hybrid hose built for longevity and chemical resistance, and a 180° swivel bracket for versatile installation.

What type of hose is included?

A hybrid hose is included, which is designed to be highly durable and resistant to chemicals.

How does the swivel bracket benefit installation?

The 180° swivel mounting bracket allows the reel to pivot, providing greater flexibility in positioning and making it easier to route the hose to different work areas.

Does this product come with everything needed for installation?

Troubleshooting

Hose does not retract smoothly.

Check the hose for any twists, kinks, or obstructions. Ensure the integrated hose guide is clear. Verify that the reel is mounted securely and the hose is not snagged on anything.

Hose gets stuck at a certain length.

The free-stop mechanism might be engaged or obstructed. Gently tug the hose to release it, or check for debris interfering with the locking mechanism. Ensure the hose is winding evenly.

Swivel bracket feels loose.

Re-tighten the mounting bolts securing the bracket to the wall or ceiling. Ensure the bracket itself is securely attached to the reel unit.

Hose exhibits signs of wear or damage.

Discontinue use immediately. Inspect the entire length of the hose for cuts, abrasions, or leaks. Replace the hose if any damage is found to prevent air leaks or potential hazards.
