Reel Rack That Spins on Bearings

Every foot of cable on a data center job comes off a reel. We build reel rack for electrical distributors, contractors and data center crews, with a bearing cradle engineered in-house so the reel turns free instead of grinding in the bracket.

The Bearing Cradle

Turn the reel, not the whole rack

Many bolt-on reel brackets let the arbor ride on bare steel. Under a full reel that means drag on every pull, noise on the floor and wear on both parts.

How it works

01
Two bearings carry the arbor
One on each side, inside a formed steel bracket. The reel starts easier and pays out smoother.
Less drag, less noise
No steel-on-steel grind during the pull, and less wear on the arbor and bracket.
Fits your rack
The bracket mounts to standard pallet rack uprights, so idle bays can become reel storage.
Designed and built by AMH
AMH engineering designed it, and we build it in our own fab shop.

Who It's For

Built around how you stage cable

Distributor Branches

Wire and cable stored by size and gauge, so counter staff cut and load without digging. We have equipped branch after branch for electrical distributors.

Data Center & Contractor Staging

Feeder, power and fiber reels staged in the yard or laydown area, ready to pull. Bearings keep heavy reels easy to start.

Converting Existing Pallet Rack

Our brackets mount to the pallet rack uprights you already own. Idle bays become reel storage without buying a new structure.

Plants & Manufacturers

Wire, hose and cable feeding a production line. Bay sizes and arbor lengths fabricated to fit the reels you run.

Common Questions

Reel rack, quick answers

Reel rack is storage for wire, cable and hose reels. A pipe arbor runs through each reel's center hole and rests in brackets on the rack uprights, so the reel can turn and pay out without coming off the rack.

Yes. Reel rack, wire spool rack, cable spool rack and cable reel racking all describe the same thing: rack that holds wire or cable reels on an arbor so they can turn and pay out. We build all of them.

Yes. Our reel brackets mount to pallet rack uprights, so bays you already own can hold reels. We look at your uprights and reel sizes first and tell you what fits.

The arbor rides on two bearings instead of bare steel. That cuts the drag you feel when you start a pull and the grinding noise of steel on steel. AMH engineering designed it and we build it in our own shop.

Yes. In-house crews lead every AMH project, with trusted subs used selectively. You can also order brackets and arbors for your own team to install.

Either. We build complete reel rack on new or reconditioned structural steel, and we keep $10M+ in used rack inventory on hand, ready to ship.

We serve warehouses in 32+ states from our facilities in West Memphis and Little Rock, Arkansas.
