Capacity: 200ft of 1\/2in hose or 150ft of 5\/8in hose. Rated to 116 PSI. Weight: 19.6 lbs (without hose). Available without hose, with 100ft hybrid hose, or with 100ft stainless steel hose and nozzle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e304 Stainless Steel. Solid Brass Connectors.

That matters in coastal environments, humid climates, and high-UV installations where polymer housings degrade over time regardless of UV coating. The solid brass connectors at the inlet and outlet won’t crack, corrode, or seize — a common failure point on plastic-connector reels after a few seasons. The G-Guiding System channels the hose onto the drum in even layers as you crank — no tangles, no uneven winding. The 3\/4\" NPT fitting is standard for residential and commercial water supply connections. Manual crank operation — no spring mechanism to wear out or fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"max-width: 100%; display: block; margin: 16px 0;\" title=\"Giraffe Tools SW-8 Stainless Steel Wall Mounted Hose Reel Overview\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Qf-9TBR6R6s\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSee it in action\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReel, Drum \u0026amp; Connector Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c!-- EVIDENCE IMAGE: Macro close-up of solid brass connectors and 304 stainless steel drum surface — place near H3 --\u003e\u003c!-- Alt text: \"Giraffe Tools SW-8 solid brass inlet connector and 304 stainless steel drum close-up\" --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e SW-8 (SKU: GWRH1V004 \/ GWRH1V003 \/ SW8US+SG-WS12A100M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame \u0026amp; Drum Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304 stainless steel — rust-proof, corrosion-resistant, no painting or coating required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnectors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid brass — leak-proof, crack-resistant, won’t seize from corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4\" NPT — standard residential and commercial water supply compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200ft of 1\/2in hose or 150ft of 5\/8in hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeader Hose:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6ft included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinding System:\u003c\/strong\u003e G-Guiding System — channels hose onto drum in even layers, prevents tangles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual crank with ergonomic handle — no spring mechanism to wear out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 116 PSI (0.8 MPA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32°F to 122°F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReel Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17\" × 21.2\" × 16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Box:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19\" × 22\" × 18\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19.6 lbs without hose \/ 37 lbs with hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Giraffe Tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing Your Variant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHose option:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWithout Hose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reel only — use your existing hose or select a hose separately.
