Stainless Steel Hose Reel Sized for 150 Feet of 3/8" Hose
Painted frames rust. This stainless steel hose reel skips that problem entirely by building the main structure out of high grade stainless, then pairing it with a Centurion stainless swivel. Capacity runs to 150 feet of 3/8" high pressure hose, the pressure ceiling is 5,000 PSI and the fluid temperature limit is 300 degrees F. Model DHRA50150SS suits any crew whose equipment lives outdoors year round.
Features
- Maximum system pressure of 5,000 PSI.
- Rated for high temperature fluid up to 300 degrees F, suitable for steam and hot water cleaning.
- Carries 150 feet of 3/8" high pressure hose.
- Bushings included to support 1/2" or 3/8" inlet and outlet connections.
- Centurion stainless steel swivel provides chemical resistance and rotation that does not leak.
- High grade stainless steel frame resists oxidation in wet, chemically harsh and salty conditions.
- Adjustable tension brake regulates drum resistance to stop unwanted spooling.
- Heavy duty reel lock pin immobilizes the drum for transport.
- Oversized EZ Grip handle is shaped for comfort and torque.
- Pre-drilled mounting base secures to truck beds, trailer floors or wall brackets.

Stainless Versus a Powder Coated Frame
A coated reel depends on the coating staying intact. Chip it with a dropped fitting or wear it thin at a contact point and corrosion starts right there, then travels. Stainless has no coating to lose, so surface damage stays cosmetic instead of becoming structural.
That difference shows up fastest in coastal air, on salt treated roads, and around strong sodium hypochlorite mixes. If your reel spends its life soaked in soft wash surfactants or sitting in overspray, the stainless frame is the version that holds its integrity under constant exposure to the elements. A powder coated frame remains the sensible pick for drier climates or an enclosed trailer.
Rotation, Leverage and Plumbing Options
Mechanical smoothness is the point of the swivel and the brake working together. The brake sits in the drum assembly with adjustable tension so the operator, not the hose, decides how fast line pays out, and that is what prevents bird nesting on the drum.
An oversized EZ Grip handle supplies the leverage for retracting hose that is still full of water, which is a much heavier job than dry line. Inlet and outlet bushings ship with the reel, letting you adapt the plumbing to your machine instead of hunting for fittings.
Integration and Maintenance
Universal fitment is the design goal, whether the drum ends up on a soft wash trailer, a vacuum excavation truck or a general washing rig. Bushings are machined to close tolerance so they seat without strain, which protects hose threads and heads off leaks where the plumbing meets the manifold. A pre-drilled base gives a stable, secure fit on truck beds, trailer floors or wall mount brackets.
Stainless resists corrosion but it still rewards a rinse. After a shift running brine or strong chemistry, flush the frame with fresh water and rotate the drum a few turns so clean water moves through the swivel. Regular inspection of the swivel and the brake keeps everything performing in harsh conditions.
Common Questions
Why choose stainless over a coated reel?
There is no finish to chip, so salt, chemicals and standing moisture have much less opportunity to start structural corrosion.
What is the hose capacity?
150 feet of 3/8" high pressure hose.
What pressure and heat will it take?
5,000 PSI maximum system pressure and fluid temperatures reaching 300 degrees F.
Does it need any routine service?
Rinse it after chemical work, then inspect the swivel and brake tension periodically. That is most of the upkeep.
