Reels for oil booms (ZZ) — manual and powered

Reels for oil booms are devices that greatly simplify deploying and reeling in the boom on a body of water. They are available in manually driven versions (ZZ-40, ZZ-50, ZZ-200) and powered ones (ZZ-200/M, ZZ-400/M, e.g. with a hydraulic motor). The base is made of welded steel sections, the drum is mounted on rolling bearings, and the whole unit — in the standard version — is protected by hot-dip galvanizing. On request, the reel can be fitted with a wheel set and a tow hook for easy movement along roads.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is a boom reel for?

It facilitates quick deployment and reeling in of the oil boom — it shortens response time and keeps boom storage organised.

Which version should I choose — manual or mechanical?

For shorter booms the manual versions (ZZ-40/50/200) are sufficient; for long and heavy booms the mechanical versions (ZZ-200/M, ZZ-400/M) are better. We will help you choose to suit your boom.

Can the reel be transported?

Yes — on request we fit it with a wheel set and a tow hook for transport on roads.
