FAQs

What is the maximum pressure this hose reel can handle?

The Mehr ALR1 is rated for a maximum working pressure of 250 lbf/in² (17 bar).

Can this be mounted to a ceiling?

Yes, the steel wall-mounting bracket is designed to support both wall and ceiling installations.

What is the internal diameter of the hose?

The hose has an internal diameter of 10mm (3/8").

Does it come with a leader hose?

Yes, the kit is supplied with a fitted leader hose for easy connection to your compressor.

How do I keep the hose from retracting fully into the casing?

You can adjust the position of the hose stopper on the hose to define how much length remains outside the unit.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

While it is built for workshop use, it can be used outdoors if mounted in a sheltered area protected from excessive moisture and extreme weather.

Troubleshooting

Hose fails to retract completely

Check the adjustable hose stopper position and ensure there is no debris caught inside the reel housing.

Air leakage at the connector

Inspect the copper tail thread for debris or cross-threading; apply Teflon tape to the connection point if necessary.

Hose will not pull out

Do not force it. Ensure the auto-retract mechanism is not jammed and that you are pulling the hose straight out rather than at an extreme angle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable steel mounting bracket
  • Efficient 180-degree swiveling capability
  • Auto-retract system prevents hose tangling
  • Includes pre-fitted leader hose for immediate setup
  • Compact design suitable for tight workshop spaces

Cons

  • Not suitable for pressures above 250 lbf/in²
  • Light-duty designation limits heavy industrial use
  • Requires stable mounting surface for safe operation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Installation: Secure the steel mounting bracket to a solid wall or ceiling stud using appropriate heavy-duty fasteners.
  2. Compatibility: The hose is compatible with standard pneumatic fittings. Ensure all connections are tightened to prevent pressure loss.
  3. Leader Hose: Connect the included leader hose to your air compressor outlet.
  4. Care: Keep the hose free of sharp edges or hot surfaces that could cause abrasion. Periodically check the dust cap to ensure it remains seated when the tool is disconnected to keep the internal line clean of metal shavings or dust.
