Milton Air Hose Reel 2780-50D Dual Arm 1/2in 50ft Rubber Hose

Description

Product Overview

The Milton 2780-50D steel dual-arm hose reel is engineered for professionals who demand reliability, durability, and ease of use in demanding air tool applications. Constructed from a robust steel frame with a powder‑coated finish, the reel resists corrosion and wear in workshop, construction site, or automotive environments. The included 50 ft length of 1/2‑in EPDM rubber hose delivers high airflow while remaining flexible in low temperatures, and its resistance to cracking, abrasion, and chemicals extends service life. Solid brass fittings provide a secure, leak‑free connection to compressors, and the dual‑arm design prevents twisting and kinking, outperforming single‑arm alternatives. The reel’s overall dimensions of 19 × 8 × 19.75 inches and a weight of 42 lb make it sturdy yet manageable for wall or truck mounting.

Usage

Designed for a wide range of high‑air‑flow projects, this hose reel excels in automotive repair shops, manufacturing plants, and on‑site construction where consistent air pressure is essential. The automatic rewind system, powered by an enclosed spring, allows operators to quickly retract the hose after use, reducing downtime and keeping work areas tidy. Adjustable ball stop control lets users set the exact length needed for each task, whether inflating tires, operating pneumatic tools, or cleaning equipment. The keyhole mounting slots provide flexibility for installation on walls, ceilings, benches, or the interior of trucks, making the reel a versatile solution for both stationary workshops and mobile service units.

FAQ

What size hose does the Milton 2780-50D reel accommodate?

The reel is designed for a 1/2‑in (12.7 mm) EPDM rubber hose, offering a 50‑foot (15.2 m) length that delivers high airflow while remaining flexible and resistant to wear.

Can the hose reel be mounted on a vehicle?

Yes, the keyhole mounting slots are engineered for versatile installation, allowing the reel to be securely attached to truck interiors, wall panels, or ceiling brackets, making it ideal for mobile workshops.

How does the automatic rewind mechanism work?

The enclosed spring‑driven system stores energy as the hose is extended. When released, the spring pulls the hose back onto the reel. The adjustable ball stop lets you set the exact retraction point, preventing over‑rewinding and protecting the hose.

Is the EPDM hose compatible with all air tools?

EPDM hose is compatible with most standard air tools that require a 1/2‑in connection. Its chemical‑resistant properties also make it suitable for environments where oil, solvents, or other contaminants may be present.

What maintenance is required for the hose reel?

The reel is designed as a maintenance‑free unit. Periodic visual inspections for physical damage and ensuring the hose is clean after use are sufficient. The one‑year warranty covers any manufacturing defects.
