Quick Take:

Hose and cable reels for work trucks reduce jobsite hazards, improve crew productivity, and extend equipment life. Hannay Reels offers US-made solutions built to perform in the toughest conditions.

The Value of Reels on Service and Work Trucks:

Outfitting a single work truck or managing an entire fleet means choosing equipment that delivers efficiency, safety, and durability. Hose and cable reels are essential for industries such as utility, fuel delivery, grounds maintenance, repair trucks, and mobile lube and grease trucks that service off-road equipment.

These reels are not just accessories. They are professional-grade tools that support faster jobsite performance, reduce equipment strain, and help keep crews safe.

Hannay Reels has been manufacturing durable, application-specific hose and cable reels in the US since 1933. Our products are trusted by fleet managers, upfitters, and OEMs throughout North America.

Increase Jobsite Efficiency with Reel Systems:

Work trucks equipped with hose or cable reels experience faster setup and teardown. This keeps crews moving between service calls and reduces the risk of costly delays.

“With the proper hose reel or cable reel, you’re going to be more efficient. Time is money,” says Brad Winnie, Sales Manager at Hannay Reels.

Whether you need a spring rewind reel for quick access or a motorized reel for heavy-duty service, Hannay Reels offers thousands of standard and customizable models to meet specific fleet needs.

Enhance Jobsite Safety and Minimize Hazards:

Unsecured hoses and tangled cables can become serious tripping hazards. Reels help keep work areas clear and organized, reducing injuries and meeting safety compliance expectations.

“Our reels are making workplaces safer all over the world,” says Marcia Casullo, Hannay’s Safety Director. “Safety is everyone’s responsibility, and our reels work as hard as the people who use them.”

Adding reels to mobile service vehicles contributes to safer jobsite operations and helps reinforce safety-first policies for field crews.

Ensure Long-Term Durability in Tough Conditions:

Reels used on work trucks need to withstand harsh environments, constant vibration, and daily use. Hannay reels are built with high-grade steel and heavy-duty components for a long service life with minimal maintenance and are designed to be easily serviced to deliver reliable performance for decades.

I’ve seen reels come in here that are 20 years old and still in working condition,” says Brandon Quick, Hannay Reels Shop Lead.
