Gartec proudly presents the RA2008 This large, open-design hose reel, part number RA2008, is crafted from high-quality stainless steel. This robust and durable device is an ideal choice for industrial and workshop environments requiring high-performance fluid handling, especially for media that may cause corrosion or have special hygiene requirements.
The product design guarantees maximum reliability and long service life, thanks to the use of stainless steel for key structural components. This model is supplied without a hose, allowing for flexible integration into existing systems or enabling the user to select the most suitable hose for the specific application.
This high-performance hose reel has the following outstanding features:
Excellent Material Quality: The frame, roller, hub, and swivel joint are all made of stainless steel (inox). This ensures excellent corrosion resistance, especially when using water and cleaning agents, and guarantees long-term mechanical strength.
High Capacity: It is capable of accommodating up to 25 meters of 1/2-inch hose, making it ideal for servicing larger work areas.
Maximum Operating Pressure: The reel is designed for use at a maximum operating pressure of 200 bar (2900 PSI), making it suitable even for high-pressure applications.
Open Design: The open design facilitates visual inspection and maintenance of the hose, and provides quick access to the hose.
Versatile Application: Specifically suitable for conveying water, cleaning agents, and anti-freeze liquids.
The RA2008 hose reel is excellently suited for the transport and handling of the following fluids:
Water
Cleaners
Window washer fluid (Window washer)
Although the primary compatible media are listed above, due to the stainless steel construction, it also shows excellent resistance to other non-aggressive, non-hydrocarbon-based fluids.

As is characteristic of Gartec products, the RA2008 is also manufactured according to the highest quality requirements. The use of stainless steel is not only an aesthetic advantage but is critically important for reliable operation in the long term, in environments requiring low maintenance. The massive construction resists external physical impacts and continuous load.
The central element of the reel is a high-quality swivel joint, which ensures the hose retracts and extends smoothly without twisting or leaking at the connection point, even under high pressure. The 25-meter capacity allows for effective coverage of large areas without the need for frequent relocation of the reel.
This high-performance, stainless steel hose reel is an ideal choice for the following sectors:
Industrial Cleaning: Dosing large volumes of water or industrial cleaning agents for high-pressure washing processes.
Vehicle Maintenance Workshops: Coolant, safe and hygienic handling of windshield washing liquids.
Food and Beverage Industry: Due to the stainless steel design, it may be suitable for areas where hygiene regulations are strict (provided the conveyed medium is compatible with the seals).
General Maintenance: Any location where a reliable, high-capacity, pressure-resistant hose management system is required.
The RA2008 model is an integral part of the Gartec Fluid Control Technology range, which focuses on precision fluid control solutions. The hose-free delivery method provides flexibility for the user to complement the reel's performance with the most suitable, 1/2 inch diameter, high-pressure hose.
