Product Information

Full details

This Sealey 8m Retractable Air Hose Steel Reel is designed for mechanics and workshop professionals who need to keep their workspace tidy and air lines accessible. Its primary benefit is organizing air hoses, preventing tripping hazards and damage, while its caveat is its suitability for compact spaces due to the 8m length. Key features include heavy-duty steel construction, a nine-position guide arm with non-snag rollers, and a multi-position ratchet lock for secure hose management.

FAQs

What is the maximum air pressure this reel can handle?

The Sealey Retractable Air Hose Steel Reel has a maximum pressure rating of 300psi.

Can I use this reel with any air compressor?

Yes, as long as your compressor has a 3/8" BSP outlet. The reel has a 3/8" BSP inlet for connection.

What type of hose is included?

The reel comes with an 8-meter long rubber hose with a 10mm internal diameter (17mm OD).

How is the hose secured at a specific length?

It features a multi-position ratchet lock that allows you to stop the hose at your desired length during use.

What are the mounting options for the reel?

The reel includes an L-shaped mounting bracket, allowing for flexible installation on walls, floors, or ceilings.

Is an adapter needed for connecting air tools?

The outlet size is 1/4" BSP, which is standard for many air tools. However, depending on your specific tool's fitting, you may need an adapter.

What is the benefit of the non-snag rollers?

The four non-snag rollers on the guide arm ensure that the hose deploys and retracts smoothly from multiple working angles without catching or snagging.

Troubleshooting

Hose does not retract fully

Check for kinks or obstructions in the hose. Ensure the guide arm is properly positioned and the rollers are free of debris. If the issue persists, the internal spring mechanism may need servicing.

Hose retraction is too fast or jerky

The ratchet lock might not be engaged properly. Ensure the hose is pulled out slightly to allow the ratchet to engage, or check if the rollers are binding.

Air leaks at connections

Ensure the 3/8" BSP inlet and 1/4" BSP outlet are securely tightened. Use appropriate thread sealant tape (PTFE tape) on the connections if necessary. Check the condition of the fittings for damage.

Hose deployment is stiff

Inspect the non-snag rollers for dirt or debris and clean them. Check that the guide arm is not obstructed. Ensure the hose is not tangled internally.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and robust steel construction for longevity.

Cons

  • 8m hose length may be insufficient for larger workshops or extensive reach.
  • Requires a suitable mounting surface for the bracket.
  • May require separate hose fittings depending on existing compressor/tool setup.
  • The 10mm internal diameter might be restrictive for high-demand air tools requiring maximum airflow.

  2. Securely attach the bracket to the chosen surface using appropriate fixings (not included).
  3. Mount the hose reel onto the bracket.

  • Maximum Pressure: 300psi

Care:

  • Periodically check the hose for cracks or damage.
