Arbor Reels / Spring Reels (Open)- Metal & Plastic Construction
John Evans' manufactures a wide array of "open style" construction, spring reels, also known as arbor reels, as they have a threaded metal arbor or a delrin plastic arbor (see picture). Our reels come in two categories: Plastic and Metal Arbored Open Reels. In an open reel; the cable is exposed, wrapped around the exterior circumference of the reel, and contained between two flanges. Open reels are available in selected diameters from 1.64" to 6.0" and in widths from 0.49" to 1.63". This type of spring powered cable retracting device is what is known in the elevator industry as the "Door Closer" reel or Spirator (pictured - rear right). Some of the smaller sizes are available with plastic cases, and all are available with metal cases.
