Paralleling Reels for Wire & Cable

Paralleling Reels for Multi-Cable Pulls

Graham International paralleling reels are built for the job sites and distribution warehouse floors where running multiple cables simultaneously is not a convenience — it is a requirement. Contractors pulling wire through conduit, electrical distributors cutting several cables to length at once, and manufacturers packaging multiple conductors into a single assembly all rely on paralleling payout reels to move more cable in less time with less handling. Graham International paralleling reels are built to take that kind of daily punishment without wearing out.

Our paralleling payout reels are engineered with solid steel rings and very heavy-duty construction that holds up to contractor use — the roughest possible service environment for this type of equipment. Reels are available in 1, 3, 4, and 5 compartment configurations, allowing you to spool multiple cable sizes side by side and pay them out simultaneously without tangles, without swapping reels between pulls, and without stopping the job to rerig. Large-capacity models handle heavy master reels for high-volume pulling operations. Free-spinning models are available for applications requiring zero back-tension on the wire as it pays off.

The 961 Low A-Frame is a companion piece for paralleling reel setups — a low-profile, pallet-jack-compatible A-frame that cradles paralleling reel assemblies and allows the entire rig to be moved by forklift or pallet jack without unloading. Solid steel rings and heavy construction throughout. For contractors working from a truck or trailer, the low-profile design makes loading and unloading faster between jobs.

Paralleling reels are used in electrical construction for commercial and industrial builds where pulling multiple circuits simultaneously reduces labor cost per foot installed. Electrical wholesale distribution centers use paralleling reels to fulfill multi-conductor orders in a single handling operation — cut three conductors to length in one pass rather than three. Wire and cable manufacturers use them for packaging multi-conductor assemblies or running parallel lines into automated cutting and measuring systems.

Graham International designs paralleling reel setups for your specific cable sizes, reel diameter range, and weight requirements. Contact us with your application — number of conductors, cable diameters, reel sizes, and whether you need fixed or mobile setup — and we will recommend the right configuration. All Graham International paralleling reels are made in the USA and covered by our industry-leading warranty.
