Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the length of the hose included?

The Draper Air Hose Reel comes with a 20-meter (approximately 65 feet) length of hybrid air hose.

Can this reel be mounted vertically or horizontally?

Yes, the reel can be mounted on walls or ceilings thanks to the 180-degree swivel mounting bracket, allowing for versatile installation.

Is the hose resistant to oil and grease?

Yes, the hybrid air hose is designed to be highly durable and resistant to chemicals, including common workshop oils and greases.

What type of fittings does it use?

The reel includes all necessary fittings and fixtures required for installation and connection to standard air compressor systems and tools.

How does the free-stopping mechanism work?

The free-stopping mechanism allows you to pull the hose out to any desired length and it will remain in place. Pulling a little further typically disengages the lock for retraction.

What is the casing made of?

The reel casing is made from impact and UV-resistant polypropylene, ensuring durability and protection against environmental factors.

Does it come assembled?

The hose reel typically comes with the hose already spooled, but the mounting bracket may need to be attached, and installation on the wall/ceiling is required.

Troubleshooting

Hose does not retract smoothly

Check for any kinks, twists, or obstructions around the reel or within the casing. Ensure the hose is not snagged on anything. The internal spring mechanism might need slight adjustment if consistently stiff.

Reel does not lock in position

Ensure the hose is extended to a point where the locking mechanism can engage. If the issue persists, there may be debris interfering with the mechanism; inspect and clean the hose entry point.

Air leak at connection points

Check that all fittings are securely tightened. Inspect O-rings or seals for damage and replace if necessary. Use appropriate thread sealant if required for your fittings.

Swivel bracket feels loose

Ensure the mounting screws for the bracket to the wall/ceiling are tight and securely fastened into appropriate wall anchors or studs. Check that the reel is properly seated on the bracket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Choose a suitable mounting location (wall or ceiling) ensuring it can support the weight of the reel and hose.
  2. Use the included 180-degree swivel mounting bracket and appropriate fixings (not always included, depending on wall type) to securely attach the bracket.
