Where can I get one of these from?

Yes this can happen some rollers have a bigger gap between each roller that helps stop this also mount the rollers like in the picture below helps make it easier as well View attachment 19420

Could you please measure the smaller gap between the rollers as I have a tubless set like yours but I use polymorph to cover the hose connector and ‘o’ clips to minimise snags but obviously makes the connection bigger.

I reckon it’s about 18 mm picture might help , but remember different makes are different sizes this one is from water works and is a wider gap than the grippatank ones I have , unless they have altered there’s since I bought them 5 years ago

Big thanks appreciated it ? I checked my polymorph connection just before I asked you for the dimensions it’s measures approx 22mm going to take the polymorph off the weekend and have another measure also I find The ‘o’  rings rip the micro clothes to shreds when reeling in the hose.

As far as Ime aware you can buy this type of roller with two settings so you can move one roller in or out making a bigger gap , might pay to have a look on eBay I know the ones I got off Jordan came from China as he told me so mine arnt adjustable but some are .

The roller I attached to my hd power up faceplate was a bit narrow that’s why I cut the bottom roller out.

Thinking my next van getting roller system like you but would like slightly wider rollers, 

have looked on eBay but all seem roughly the same non with a wider gap.

I think if you are a bit handy with a drill and grinder you could probably adjust them yourself by drilling another hole and moving the roller over some are riveted in others have a nut on them or a c clip I reckon bit of time it could be done , I have the exceed set up if I remove the long part of the ejector sleeve the end bit and rictus 21 fitting will fit between the rollers the joint between the microbore and pole hose easily fits through it

Do you use a clothe when reeling in as the connector between 6mm hose and pole hose the o rings destroy the clothes.

Only if the hose is wet or dirty I use old microfibres haven’t had a problem to be honest .

@Den the GrippaTank ones are wider https://www.grippatank.co.uk/grippareel-square-floor-mount-double-backed-roller-guide-assembly-400mm-depth designed for hose  1 1/2" or 38.1mm

Think they would be a better option ?

Unless they have altered them since I had mine from them , they weren’t that big , ime guessing that they must be using some thing different now ??

The set up I have with rollers from Grippa are larger than the ones you have from Water-Works

Where is the best place in the van to fit those waterworks rollers that pop out under the van? Right below the reel and in the centre? Any help most welcome.

Doesn’t matter really centre line from the reel to the floor is best if that makes sense and make sure there is nothing in the way under the van before cutting holes , measure twice cut once !!!????

Hi Spruce,    Where would they get there reel elbow swivel    looks a different  type to the norm we all use

I recently seen a chap with a garden hose reel guide ,  the one you screw onto wall to guide hose reel about garden,     They had one bolted into wooden flooring  just behing the doors to guide reel hose around

See for the under van guides has anybody parked on a kerb for example and managed to hit them? Or is there enough clearance
