Coxreels SHL-N-450-BBX DEF Heavy Duty Spring Rewind Hose Reel | DEF-SH Series | 1/2" Hose Diameter | 50' Hose Length | 300 Max PSI | Less Hose

Built for organized Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) dispensing setups, the Coxreels SHL-N-450-BBX DEF Heavy Duty Spring Rewind Hose Reel provides controlled hose storage for systems requiring a 1/2" hose I.D., 50 ft hose capacity, and 300 PSI maximum working pressure. DEF is an emissions-control fluid used in many modern diesel vehicles and equipment, and this DEF-SH Series reel supports clean handling with a stainless steel 90° full-flow NPT swivel and Viton seals selected for chemical resistance.

The spring rewind design helps reduce loose hose on shop floors, service trucks, and dispensing areas, while the Super Hub dual axle support system improves reel stability during pull-out and rewind. With an adjustable guide arm, permanently lubricated precision bearings, and a powder-coated steel frame, the DEF-SH Series is suited to stationary installations as well as mobile service applications where hose control, mounting flexibility, and fluid compatibility matter.

FAQs:

• Q: What does less hose mean on the SHL-N-450-BBX?
  A: It means the reel is supplied without hose installed. The buyer must provide a compatible hose separately, making sure the hose I.D., O.D., length, pressure rating, and fluid compatibility match the application.
• Q: Can this reel be used for DEF dispensing?
  A: Yes. The DEF-SH Series uses a stainless steel 90° full-flow NPT swivel and Viton seals for Diesel Exhaust Fluid dispensing applications. The hose still needs to be selected separately because this SKU is sold less hose.
• Q: What hose size should be used with this reel?
  A: This model is listed for 1/2" hose I.D. with 50 ft capacity and a maximum hose O.D. of 7/8". Do not exceed the listed hose O.D. if you need the full rated hose capacity.
• Q: Where can the guide arm be mounted?
  A: The guide arm can be adjusted for wall, floor, ceiling, vehicle, and overhead mounting positions. This helps the reel fit fixed shop installations as well as mobile service layouts.
• Q: Is the hose stop included?
  A: Coxreels lists an adjustable solid rubber hose stop among the reel features. The hose itself is not included with this less-hose configuration.
