Ingersoll Rand BHR-8 Air Hose Reel Spring Balancer is designed to support and balance lightweight pneumatic tools and hose assemblies, helping reduce the effort required to reposition supported equipment during assembly and service work. It provides a 0.875–1.75 lb load capacity with 4-1/4 ft of lift and 18.4 CFM extended air consumption. The adjustable capacity allows the balancer to be matched to the supported load, while the hose-reel configuration helps keep the connected air line elevated and organized.
Part of the BHR Series, the BHR-8 features a rugged aluminum housing, nylon cable, and a 1/4" NPT connection. Its adjustable stroke-limiting capability helps control travel, while the one-way shutoff design provides a safety feature for the hose reel balancer. The 4-1/4 ft lift is suited to workstation applications where a compact range of vertical tool movement is required.
