New Hose Reel Latching Option Introduced by Reelcraft

June 2, 2011

Reelcraft’s Series 4000, 5000 and 5005 reels are all-steel construction and compact for a wide range of applications with critical space requirements. They have historically used a cam and disc latching mechanism that latches at two different points every 180°. The quiet speed latch, as it is referred, requires that the hose be pulled out and then let back slowly for the latch to fall into the disc detent. Now, there is an additional option. The new latch features a more traditional ratchet and latch pawl design. This design produces the easily recognizable clicking sound when retracting. All Reelcraft series 4000, 5000 or 5005 reels can be ordered with the new ratcheting latch. Call 1-800-444-3134 or visit www.reelcraft.com.
