How It Works Rather than connecting your hose directly to the reel swivel: Run your supply line to the bypass block Keep your hose stored neatly on the reel When needed, pull off the length you want and quick connect to the block * This keeps chemicals and constant flow out of your reel, preventing premature failure. -Key Benefits Protects hose reel swivel & manifold from chemical exposure Extends equipment life (less corrosion, less wear) Cleaner, more efficient setup Eliminates unnecessary flow through your reel system Ideal for soft wash & pressure washing rigs - Product Features 3/8" Hose Reel Bypass Block Machined from high-quality 7075 aluminum (stronger than standard aluminum) Corrosion-resistant and lightweight (2) 1/4" bolt-through mounting holes for secure installation Precision machined for durability and performance -Perfect For Soft wash systems (bleach setups) Pressure washing trailers & skid units Contractors looking to protect expensive hose reels Anyone running downstream or chemical-heavy setups -Why This Matters Most hose reel failures come from: Chemical exposure (bleach, SH) Constant water flow through the swivel Internal corrosion and seal breakdown -This bypass block helps eliminate all of that. - Note Designed for 3/8" setups Stainless Steel Mounting hardware included Quick connects and fittings sold separately
