CCPC 26 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 I am looking to get two new hose reels within the next week. Where would you guys/gals recommend I look for a good deal? I bought one from Water Cannon a couple of months ago 300' capacity. Only paid 99.00 for it and its held up just fine. This particular one was on special at the time, but it was on special for a long time so who knows, maybe it still is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GymRat 14 Report post Posted July 19, 2005 I also purchased the 300' reel from Water Canon, and I would say it is a medium grade reel. I just had to pull it apart and weld the handle back to the inside of the reel due to a very poor tack weld from the factory. I do agree it is a good reel for the money.

As far as I know, there's no reel on the market that has a swivel that will withstand high concentrations of chlorine. It will fail in a short period of time. I use a regular plastice reel from walmart with a pig tail equiped with a couple to attach to my pump. Its all plastic so it will hold up much longer for this kind of use than any steal one you can buy, and its a lot cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PWkid 79 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 Well they do make s.s. swivels that are pricey or you can use a brass swivel which is what I use and have had the same one for 8 months now but I do rinse it. ( brass holds up pretty well if you rinse it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PWkid 79 Report post Posted July 20, 2005 Type in Titan reels in a search engine and you can see the catalog and if you call the number they should be able to hook you up with somebody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
