Gallagher North America G61600 Econo Wire Tape Reel

Product Description

The GALLAGHER NORTH AMERICA G61600 is a portable, lightweight wire and tape reel designed for electric fence applications. It holds a minimum of 500 meters (1,640 feet) of poly wire, 400 meters (1,312 feet) of turbo wire, or 200 meters (656 feet) of poly tape or turbo tape. The zinc-coated steel frame resists corrosion in outdoor environments, and a UV-stabilized body holds up under continuous sun exposure. A positive-locking ratchet mechanism keeps line tension controlled during payout and retrieval. The reversible, replaceable hub adds serviceability, extending the useful life of the reel. Fencing contractors and livestock managers use this reel for rotational grazing setups, temporary paddocks, and permanent fence installations.

This reel is suited for agricultural and ranch fencing applications where lightweight handling and high line capacity are priorities. It is compatible with standard poly wire, turbo wire, poly tape, and turbo tape configurations commonly used in low-impedance and conventional energizer systems. The G61600 is sold individually and is a practical choice for crews managing large acreage or frequent fence moves where quick deployment and retrieval matter.

Key Features

• Holds at least 500 meters (1,640 feet) of poly wire, 400 meters (1,312 feet) of turbo wire, or 200 meters (656 feet) of poly tape or turbo tape
• Zinc-coated frame provides corrosion resistance for outdoor use
• UV-stabilized reel body resists degradation from prolonged sun exposure
• Positive-locking ratchet mechanism controls line tension during payout and retrieval
• Reversible and replaceable hub extends reel service life
• Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during extended fence runs

Compatibility

Designed for use with poly wire, turbo wire, poly tape, and turbo tape in standard electric fence applications. Confirm line diameter and tape width against reel capacity before loading.

Installation Notes

Install and service electric fence components with the energizer powered off and discharged before handling wire or tape on the reel. Standard fencing tools apply for post setting and wire tensioning. Follow local agricultural fencing codes and energizer manufacturer guidelines for safe system assembly. Inspect the ratchet mechanism and hub periodically for wear, especially in high-cycle rotational grazing operations.
