Twist-Lok Plastic Spools
Save space with Twist-Lok® plastic spools
Empty reels take up a lot of valuable space when shipped or stored. Sonoco’s three-piece Twist-Lok plastic spools ship disassembled, delivering more spools per truckload and taking up less warehouse space. The spools assemble and disassemble by hand in seconds—without tools. Just insert the drum into the flanges and twist to lock in place. To disassemble, simply lift the locking tabs on the flanges and twist again.
Recyclable Plastic Spools Need No Tools
Available for food-contact applications, Twist-Lok spools are ideal for lighter materials such as food package zip-closures and foam sealing strips, hook and loop fastener tapes and other lighter-weight cordage.
Twist-Lok spools are made of recyclable plastic and take up 70% less storage and shipping space than assembled spools.
Three-Piece Plastic Wire Reels
Our three-piece wire reel features plastic flanges bolted to a steel barrel, creating a durable, dimensionally true, splinter-free product. This structurally robust wire reel comes in a range of colors and accommodates various traverse lengths. Replaceable components include the plastic flanges and metal barrel. The galvanized steel barrel provides the flexibility to accommodate shipping or in-process use.

EconoReel™ Plastic Reel
Sonoco EconoReel plastic reels and spools for the wire and cable industry are engineered for durability while delivering strong performance at a lower cost.
Constructed with precision molded parts, EconoReel plastic reels and spools are welded so there is no flange separation and no wire loss.
Standard Plastic Spools and Reels
Our comprehensive line of plastic wire spools is manufactured in a broad range of sizes and materials to meet the needs of the wire industry. All spools are designed for high-speed winding with high tensile strength and impact qualities.
This innovative product line features the Reel Tough DIN 630 reel, made specifically for 630 bunchers. The reel design allows wire producers to maximize drawing and bunching machine capacity with smooth, trouble-free payoff. Constructed of high-strength, solid polymers, Reel Tough plastic reels feature a unique design that adds strength where it's needed most—at the flange rim and where the ribs and hub intersect.
