Wind-up Systems and Accessories
How reels differ…
• Field capacity. The length of
twine, tape or rope that a reel can
hold (see chart below).
• Wind-up speed. Largely
determined by the internal
diameter of the reel.
• How they’re supported. EzeReels
via a neck strap—allowing both
hands free to wind or attach/
detach strands from posts.
SupaReels and MiniReels
are supported by one hand and
wound with the other hand.
• Cost per reel and per ft of
conductor stored.
Reel capacity vs field capacity
There is a difference between
machine-wound capacity and field
capacity (wound by hand, see chart
at left). Field capacity can be half that
of machine capacity. When others
indicate a reel’s capacity, ask which
they mean.
Premier’s reels vs other reels
If you want the strongest and most
durable reel available, Premier’s
SupaReel is the winner. But, at $54
complete, it’s not cheap.
Because SupaReel also has a braking
system, we use it for 3-reel and 4-reel
fence systems. Reels without brakes
are suitable only for 1-strand or
2-strand systems.
• Saves time
• Reduces aggravation
• Extends conductor life
• Enables better grass and
animal management

Don’t do this…
Tangles and wasted $$ result when you try
to “save” $$ by not buying a reel. (Folks who’ve
never used a reel understandably think portable
fences are overrated.)
