10 Inch Metal Spool Options

Our 10 inch metal spools are manufactured in compliance with DIN 46395 (for metal flanged reels), DIN 46397 (for fully machined and semi machined reels), and NEMA WC 26 (for corrugated and shipping-type reels). These standards ensure dimensional accuracy, structural integrity, and compatibility with standard wire and cable manufacturing equipment.

Yes. All steel reel orders at Narco are manufactured to customer specifications. Whether you need a specific flange diameter, traverse width, arbor hole size, or material grade, the team works from customer-supplied requirements. Drawings are provided with quotes and orders to confirm exact dimensions before production begins.

Dynamic balancing is available on fully machined, semi machined, and fabricated steel reels. This ensures smooth, vibration-free performance at high operating speeds, which is critical for wire drawing, stranding, and cable manufacturing processes where unbalanced reels can cause product quality issues or equipment damage.

Fully machined steel reels — also called multiwire reels — are machined on all surfaces, offering the highest precision and smoothest product contact. Semi machined reels feature double wall curled flanges and are machined only on product contact surfaces, offering a balance between precision and cost-effectiveness. Both are made to DIN 46397 standards.

10 inch metal spools are widely used in wire manufacturing, cable manufacturing, rope production, in-process material handling, product shipping, extrusion processes, drum twisting, and lay-up operations. Fully machined reels are also suitable for storage and deployment of umbilical cables in subsea and offshore environments.

Yes. Narco was originally founded in 1999 specifically for reel reconditioning and repair. The company offers full reel reconditioning, welding, machining, and custom repair services for steel wire reels and bobbins.
