ReelX Hose and Cable Reels
ReelX is a brand of retractable hose and cable reels supplied through AIMS Industrial for workshop, fleet, and industrial applications. The range covers air, water, oil, grease, and electrical cable reels — the everyday infrastructure that keeps workshop bays safe, tidy, and productive.
The ReelX categories at AIMS
- Air hose reels — for compressed air delivery in workshop and fleet bays
- Water hose reels — for washdown, parts cleaning, and general utility water supply
- Oil hose reels — for engine oil, gear oil, and hydraulic fluid dispensing
- Grease hose reels — for grease gun supply in lubrication bays
- Electrical cable reels — for power tool and lighting supply on extended cords
- Twin-hose reels — for oxy-acetylene and oxy-LPG cutting and welding gas supply
Why hose and cable reels matter
A hose or cord left lying on a workshop floor between uses is a trip hazard, gets damaged faster, and looks unprofessional. A retractable reel pulls the hose to where the work is, locks at the right length, and retracts cleanly when work's done. The result is a tidier bay, longer hose life, and safer working practice. For any workshop or fleet operation, reels pay back through reduced consumable replacement and fewer slip-and-trip incidents.
Reel mechanism types
- Spring-retract — tension-spring rewinds the hose automatically when released; the everyday workshop choice
- Hand-cranked — manual rewind, suited to longer hose runs and heavier-duty work
- Motor-driven — air or electric motor rewinds the hose; for very long runs or heavy fluids
Companion ranges
ReelX sits alongside our other reel brands — Coxreel for the long-established US-engineered range, Macnaught for Australian-manufactured workshop reels, Retracta for additional retractable options. We match the reel to the application: hose size, length, mounting, and fluid type.
Service items
Reel springs lose tension over years of use, hoses develop damage from abrasion and impact, and ratchet mechanisms eventually need attention. Replacement springs, hose assemblies, and seal kits are stocked for the brands we supply — keep reels in service rather than replacing them wholesale.
