Coxreels Safety Performance Reel

Coxreels® EZ-P “Safety Series Performance” spring driven hose reels have a long history of dependability and trouble free performance. Their compact space-saving size and heavy duty construction make them highly versatile and virtually indestructible. Time-tested proven components, superior design, and craftsmanship have contributed to its worldwide reputation as the most trusted reel. 

The added feature of Coxreels’ patented EZ-Coil® controlled retraction regulates the spring driven rewind speed up to 80% slower than that of a conventional hose reel. EZ-Coil® works uni-directionally without any increase to the amount of resistance when pulling out the hose, cord, or cable. When engaged upon recoil, the EZ-Coil® controls the aggressive spring motor energy resulting in a reel that retracts at a safe and steady pace enhancing operator and workplace safety.
