Retracting cord reels wind the cord or cable back up after you finish using it. This allows you to safely store the cable without risk of tangling or other damage. Certain cable reels may include an extension cord or other secondary attachment, like a tri-tap or connector for added convenience.
Retractable cable reels help prioritize safety and organization in the workspace. You can find retractable cable reels that sit on the floor or mount to the wall or ceiling. This allows you to work without tripping over cords.
