The Plastica Slidelock Telescopic Reel is the original industry standard. It features polished stainless steel end stands, anodised aluminium telescopic tubes, plastic end bosses, and a steering wheel. It has a unique and fast slide and lock strap fixation, and a locking device which holds the tube in place to prevent the cover from unwinding. The Slidelock reel is strong and durable, and very easy to install.
Pool covers are only beneficial to the pool owner when they are on the pool. Speeding up the process of covering/uncovering the pool results in a significantly warmer and cleaner pool.

Reduction Gearbox
Whatever size the pool, winding a cover off can be hard work. Motorised systems are a great option, but the high cost can be prohibitive. The Reduction Gearbox was created to make these concerns a thing of the past. It is a simple, highly effective 3:1 ratio gearbox which makes light work of winding a cover onto a reel.
