To handle 1/4″ through 1-1/2″ I.D. hose.
Most Hannay spring reel models are available with an air governor rewind assist, which prevents the hose from winding back onto the reel too quickly. Speed is regulated by restricting air flow through an air governor attached to the rewind mechanism. The result is smooth, controlled rewind speed each and every time.
Unlike other speed control mechanisms designed for spring rewind reels, there are 3 major advantages to the Hannay design:
1. Highly scalable – The air speed control governor can be scaled up to regulate speed on even the most powerful spring reels we offer. Other designs can only work on light-duty springs.
2. Operates in all climates – Because the AG Series uses air flow to control speed (not hydraulic fluid, which can change viscosity depending on temperature), the reel’s rewind speed is controlled and unaffected, even by cold weather.
3. Fully adjustable – The end-user can turn the air restrictor clockwise or counterclockwise until the optimal rewind speed is found for the application.
