No.  The reel comes complete with all parts required, including the arm and base plate.  This reel can be mounted to any solid flat surface, including walls, trailers, benches and flatbeds.  

Yes.  However, keep in mind that this will void the 2-year no leak guarantee.  Although this reel is equipped with a chemical resistant stainless and brass swivel, harsh chemicals such as aluminum brightener, or other caustic chemicals will dramatically shorten the life of the swivel and interior axle.

Yes, 

Our high-pressure swivels are equipped with Viton o-rings.

Yes. All ELEY high-pressure swivels use the same repair kit (part # 2456). Installation of the seal kit DOES NOT require the use of any special tools. However, you will need a dental pick or similar device to remove the old seals.

No.  Because of the special requirements of each particular application, (1/2" vs. 3/8", single-wire vs. double-wire, rigid fitting vs. swivel fitting, length, etc.), ELEY does not equip high pressure reels with an inlet hose.  A suitable inlet hose can usually be obtained through local dealers that carry hydraulic hose products, such as pressure washer, fluid power, heavy equipment or farm implement dealerships.   

No. Our semi-gloss black paint has proven to be an ideal fit for most consumer and commercial applications. This universally neutral color also keeps the reel looking good by helping hide the dirt and grime.
