Stainless A-Frame Hose Reel Built for 450 Feet of Hose
Some properties will not let you get close. Gated back yards, courtyards, rooftops and long strip center sidewalks all mean the machine parks in one place and the hose does the traveling. This stainless A-frame hose reel is sized for 450 feet of 3/8 inch hose, and the stainless frame handles the chemicals and constant wet that come with the trade.

Winding 450 Feet So the Hose Lasts
Bring hose in at a walking pace with light tension so each layer stacks flat. Speed is what buries a crushed wrap under 300 more feet of line, and you will not find that damage until it blows on a Saturday.
Anchor the frame to something that can carry the load. A trailer deck with backing plates or a concrete floor is the right idea, and a couple of self tappers into thin sheet is not. Rinse the frame down after working around heavy mix or coastal salt, because stainless resists corrosion far better than a coated frame but it still appreciates fresh water. Sweep the hose path before a long pull so you are not dragging 450 feet through the same gravel every trip.
Common Questions
Do I really need this much line?
If your crew ever runs two hoses coupled together to reach the back of a property, yes. One long run beats a coupling that leaks and catches on every corner.
Why stainless instead of painted steel?
Paint chips, water gets under it and rust spreads from there. Stainless holds up much longer on a rig that stays wet.
What hose size does it take?
It is set up for 3/8 inch hose, up to 450 feet of it.
