The main cause of telescoping coils, which create a great deal of scrap, is tapered and/or loose segments on the reel in the expanded position. (The Fabricator)

Using Shiloh’s telescoping coil lifter has greatly improved our operation. Where we used to get several guys to muscle a coil from the pallet to the pay-out reel, now a single person can do the entire process with much greater efficiency and much less risk of injury. If just one person were to trip, the potential for serious injury would be too great–not only injury to personnel, but the possibility of damage to the coil. (Shiloh Precision Tooling)

For almost 50 years, SOS Services, Inc. has specialized in providing on-site metal core restoration services that help refurbish damaged metal coil to like-new condition. Our highly experienced team will re-skid and re-band coils if necessary. We can also hydraulically repair damaged coil, or fix telescoping coil with variances in its sidewall. (Thomasnet)
