Title: Van mount hose reel clamps
Post by: simon w on November 20, 2020, 07:41:23 am
I'm have two new Pure Freedom stainless steel hose reels fitted into my van with the 6mm ID hose on them both. Are any of the WC suppliers selling clamps to fix them in place? I don't want the screw down base type as we are looking for quick release so we can get other cleaning equipment in and out of the van quickly when needed.

If I’m getting your drift,
Grippatank sell a base plate for their reels so that you can quickly release and take out your reel from the van. I suppose they could be adapted to fit your reels. They use a hand screw down bolt on each corner of the plate to secure the reel. The plate itself can be solidly bolted to the floor of van or mounted on top of a tank with an appropriate frame in place.

When I used to use the pure freedom manual hose reel , I used these pipe clips (I think 22mm) . They were perfect, screw the clips into the floor and simply clip the hose reel frame into them. Anytime you need to take your reel out , it’ll just clip out .

Does anyone know if Grippa still sell the clips holding the hose reel in place in this picture? if not any idea of other sources?
