The stainless drum swallows 300 ft of 3\/8 in. high pressure hose, which buys you serious working range without dragging the machine to a new spot every twenty minutes. Both the inlet and outlet run 1\/2 in. FPT, so flow is not choked at the fittings. Commercial parking lots, fleet vehicles and municipal infrastructure are where it earns its keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity for 300 ft of 3\/8 in. line, so you park the rig centrally and still reach the far side of a warehouse or the top of a building\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual leg chassis stays planted when you crank in a long, water filled line, unlike single arm designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafe working pressure up to 5000 PSI, which suits the larger commercial pumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalf inch plumbing front and back cuts friction loss right at the swivel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtects your line from kinks, wear and outright damage in the field\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFewer loose coils underfoot means fewer trip claims on customer property\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide base with pre-drilled holes fits trailers, flatbeds and shop floors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable tension brake sets the drag on the spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel No\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDHRA50300SS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5000 PSI max working pressure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInlet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2 in.

That shape absorbs the torque and vibration that hit the unit every time somebody rewinds, which makes for smoother turning and slower wear on the whole assembly. On the plumbing side, the half inch path through the swivel keeps friction loss down where it costs you the most. Your pump gets to put its cleaning power out at the gun instead of burning it inside the fittings, and that shows up on very long runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSwivel, Drum, Crank and Brake\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart of the system is the heavy duty swivel, rated at 5000 PSI with 1\/2 in. female pipe thread on both ends. Pros running pumps at 5 GPM and up need that, because the wider internal geometry cuts turbulence that a smaller swivel creates. The drum carries 300 ft of 3\/8 in. line with room left to change hose configuration depending on the outside diameter you prefer. Rolled edges all the way around keep the jacket from getting cut or snagged, and the crank handle is welded to the axle so long winds do not punish your back. A friction brake assembly lets you dial in spool drag, which is what stops a bird nest from forming while you drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMounting and Plumbing It In\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBolt this thing to something solid, meaning a trailer deck, a truck bed or a concrete floor. Loaded with line and full of water it can easily top 100 pounds, and that weight is exactly what works a weak mount loose when you travel or wind hard. Grade 8 bolts plus one or two large backing plates handle it. For plumbing, run a high pressure jumper from your pump to the 1\/2 in. FPT inlet swivel and use quality thread sealant or PTFE tape so the joint stays dry at full pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWear Parts and Upkeep\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe only moving part living under high pressure is the swivel, and it is designed so a leak turns into a quick repair rather than a new purchase. Seal kits are easy to source and go in fast. Keep the frame rinsed off now and then. The drum bearings turn freely on their own, but an occasional shot of grease at the zerks, or a spray lubricant if there are none, keeps everything rolling. Mounted properly and maintained a little, this unit will outlive several hoses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe title reads 1\/2 in. x 300 ft. Does it hold 300 feet of 1\/2 in. hose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, and this trips people up. The half inch figure describes the plumbing, not the line. Inlet and outlet are both 1\/2 in. FPT, while the drum is rated to store 300 ft of 3\/8 in. high pressure hose. We list the spec version above because that is what the unit actually does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo how do I connect my 3\/8 in. hose to a 1\/2 in. outlet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd a 1\/2 in. male to 3\/8 in. female reducer bushing at the outlet on the inner drum.
