Sonoco's Econoreel plastic reels and spools for the wire and cable industry are engineered to be tough while delivering strong performance for a lower cost.
With precision molded parts, Econoreel plastic reels and spools are welded so there is no flange separation, resulting in no wire loss.
A comprehensive line of wire spools 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's design allows wire producers to maximize drawing and bunching machine capacity with smooth, trouble-free payoff. Constructed of high strength, solid polymers, Reel Tough reels feature a unique design that adds strength where it's needed most--at the flange rim and where the ribs and hub intersect.

Fine wire spools have high tensile strength and excellent flange rigidity to help prevent flange deflection. They also provide a high degree of accuracy, which is essential for winding finer gauges of wire.
Sonoco injection molded plastic taper reels feature smooth plastic flanges that assist in high-speed de-reeling, minimizing flange deflection and reducing the possibility of trapped wire.
The three-piece bolted construction enhances the possibility of reuse since damaged components can be replaced. All reel components are recyclable, providing savings and sustainable benefits.
Additional features include starting and finishing holes in the flanges along with Dura-Grip barrel finish to prevent movement of the initial layer of wire on the tapered barrel.
Molded in standard high impact styrene and ABS, our 50 lb. and 100 lb. taper reels are ideal for shipping medium to fine gauge magnet wire, as well as other copper and plated copper conductors. The reel’s tapered barrel is designed to prevent wire tangling, and an optional Dura-Grip finish can be applied to the barrel to hold the initial startup wire in place.
Plastic taper reels with carrying capacities of 250 lbs., 550 lbs., 750 lbs. and 1000 lbs. are also available. With superior winding and de-reeling properties, these reels provide the wire industry with the optimal approach to modern packaging.
