T&S Brass Launches Midi-Reel for Compact Washdown Applications

December 19, 2025 CLV

T&S Brass and Bronze Works, Inc. and Klarco, a T&S company, have announced the release of the new MIDIReel, a compact, high-performance hose reel. Engineered to bridge the gap between small-format reels and full-size washdown systems, the MIDIReel expands the T&S hose reel lineup to meet the needs of increasingly diverse foodservice, laboratory, industrial, and mobile environments.

“Across foodservice and other commercial environments, operators are making the most of smaller, more efficient spaces while still raising the bar for cleanliness and speed,” said Liz Hofius, product marketing manager at T&S Brass and Bronze Works, Inc. “The MIDIReel was made to support that shift, giving teams powerful washdown capability in a compact format that keeps tight areas easy to maintain.”

The new MIDIReel (5R.M4Q.E507RR-W) is designed for operations requiring a durable, mid-capacity washdown solution without the footprint of a standard full-size reel. Key features include:

  • 13' EPDM retractable hose

  • Ratcheting system for controlled extension and retraction

  • 4A.P507M self-closing spray valve, engineered with a dual spray pattern that shifts with a simple turn of the spray face

  • Multi-T mounting bracket for wall, ceiling, or under-counter installation, accommodating diverse layouts and tight footprints

This mid-sized reel offers the perfect balance of versatility, durability, and convenience for commercial operators seeking efficient washdown performance in confined spaces. For operations where space is at an absolute premium, the MIDIReel is complemented by the Klarco MINIReel (B-7161-C), designed for ultra-compact washdown stations. Features include:

  • 6' EPDM retractable hose

  • Ratcheting system for controlled extension and retraction

  • Self-closing, push-button spray valve for intuitive operation

  • Under-counter mounting for maximum space savings

  • ¼-turn diverter shutoff valve

The MIDI and MINIReel lineup covers a broad range of washdown needs, from dish machines and prep areas to mobile cleaning stations in compact foodservice and on-the-go environments.

The T&S MIDIReel is available now through T&S distribution partners. For product specifications, ordering information, or installation support, visit www.tsbrass.com or contact the T&S customer service team.
