About Wire and Cable

Coiled Cable

After extending to full length to provide added reach, this cable retracts and self-coils for tangle-free storage. It's often used with hand tools and other portable devices.

Coiled Communication Cable

After extending to full length to provide added reach, this cable retracts and self-coils for tangle-free storage. It's often used with low-current circuits such as microphones and headsets.

Cords

Hardwire Washdown Automatic-Wind Cord Reels

Connect the wires in your power cord to these reels for a permanent and protected connection—the screw terminals are in a gasketed dust- and water-resistant NEMA 4 enclosure.

Automatic-Wind Cord Reels

A ratchet holds the extension cord on these reels in place at any length; a quick pull releases the cord and the spring-driven winding mechanism retracts it.

Harsh Environment Automatic-Wind Cord Reels

Intended for demanding applications, these reels include an oil- and water-resistant extension cord.

Controlled-Automatic-Wind Cord Reels

Controlled winding prevents the cord from whipping at the end, making winding safer and extending the life of the cord and reel.

Hazardous Location Automatic-Wind Cord Reels

Use these cord reels where ignitable gas and dust may be present. They're rated NEMA 4 and UL listed for Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups C and D; and Class II, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups F and G hazardous environments.
