When you need a bare reel platform for Diesel Exhaust Fluid dispensing, the Coxreels TSHL-N-450-BBX DEF Supreme Duty spring rewind hose reel provides controlled hose storage for custom DEF transfer setups. This DEF-T Series reel is sized for 1/2" I.D. hose with up to 50 ft of capacity, giving fleet shops, DEF storage systems, service trucks, and dispensing stations a cleaner way to manage hose reach between fill points. The 300 PSI maximum pressure rating supports low-pressure DEF handling applications, while the stainless steel 90° full-flow NPT swivel and Viton seals are selected for Diesel Exhaust Fluid compatibility.
The T Series Supreme Duty frame uses Coxreels’ Super Hub dual axle support system, which adds stability to the drum during payout and rewind. Its lubricated, enclosed cartridge-style spring motor supports serviceable rewind performance, while CNC spun ribbed discs with rolled edges help protect the hose path and add structural strength. With a compact 9-3/8" W x 21-1/4" H x 19-1/2" L footprint and 55 lb ship weight, this less-hose reel is suited to installations where buyers need to specify their own compatible DEF hose assembly.
