EconoReel Plastic Reel
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.
The Econoreel plastic reels and spools portfolio includes utility and small consumer spools as well as plywood replacement reels. -
Standard Plastic Spools and Reels
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.

DIN Fine Wire Spools
For a complete line of spools for packaging magnet wire, bare wire or monofilament produced in accordance with DIN specifications, look at the Sonoco Plastics portfolio.
Some of the outstanding features of Sonoco molded plastic DIN spools are:
-
Economical, accurate and reliable
-
Several sizes available
-
Through-bore construction providing trouble-free loading of spools on winding and de-reeling equipment
-
Parting line positioned to minimize snags during de-reeling
- Optimal design for reusable package
Fine Wire Spools
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.
Typical applications
- THHN wire
- Coaxial cable
- CATV wire
- Speaker wire
- Rope chain
- Hose
- Packing material
- Fabrics
- Tubing
Taper Reels
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.
