Flat Out Multi-Reel - Cable Reel for Trades and Construction

Protect your leads, keep your toolbox organised.
Save time, money and sanity!

1.5 minute video: Tradie gets tired of lazy apprentice - Multi-Reel to the rescue!

Flat Out's Multi-Reels are perfect for lead and cable storage, protection and organisation in countless industries! They stack together for added space management, look great in the work ute or van, but most importantly they save you time, which saves you money!

Hand-rolling power leads to prevent twists requires skill that needs to be taught. The Multi-Reel is so intuitive to use, you can hand the job to anyone with zero explanation (even the apprentice!) and be confident they will not damage your leads. Twists are the number one cause for extension lead failure and the way cables wind onto multi-reel, twists will not form. And when you next get the cord out, it is guaranted to be tangle free.

*Capacity depends on insulation thickness. For example, the maximum length of 15Amp extension lead is 22m (see product R22) but we recommend planning for no more than 15m of your own lead as the thickness varies from brand to brand. If you are unsure you can use one of our larger units: Narrow Multi-Reel (1.5x capacity) or Original Multi-Reel (2x capacity).

SAFETY Features

Coiled leads under current heat up, and pose fire risk. Flat Out Multi-Reels are far safer than conventional cable reels as they are designedin a way that the user is forced to remove the whole cable to be able to use it.

When stacked together your leads are armour plated in transit due to the solid backs of the reels, further protecting your gear against damage from other items while you drive around. Thus, Multi-Reel also reduces the dangers associated with working with damaged electrical cords.

RV/Trade Extension Lead - 15amp by Coast to Coast

Flat Out Multi-Reel works with any extension lead, yet we have this one in our warehouse for customer convenience, and because we rate it as an excellent extension lead.

A 15 Amp lead is nearly always required for caravans, yet some are bulky and heavy when they don't need to be. Space and weight reduction are comodities of high demand in the RV world. We like this particular lead from Coast RV because it is very high quality yet has a lighter and more flexible insulation, meaning you can have a longer length for less weight, less space and less work winding it up.

Available as a 17m and a 22m length. Both lengths fit inside the Compact Multi-Reel, yet the 22m is snug, so it might be hard to squeeze in on a cold morning when the lead is less flexible. As such we recommend using the Narrow Multi-reel for a 22m length lead.

Weight: 1.7 kg or 2.1 kg
Type: 15 A
Cable: 3 core 1.5mm

The image of the lead in the Multi-Reel is for demonstration only, when you add this product you are buying extension lead only and must add your desired Multi-Reel separately.
