Buying Guide: Mason Line and Reels

Mason Line and Reels
Stringliner reels are reloadable and include an automatic rewind that works with a power screwdriver or a clip-on rewind crank. Some reels add a thumb brake drag, and certain reels have a patented handle that makes it easier to change spools. Reels are sold in sizes such as 0.25 oz with 270 ft of line and 0.5 oz with 540 ft of line.

Refill Line in Twisted and Braided Styles
Refill spools are sold in twisted and braided construction line in colors such as gold, yellow and orange. Twisted line is made of nylon, and the braided line is noted to resist twisting and tangling more easily. The nylon line has a 165 lb tensile strength and can be used to refill the Stringliner Pro reel.

Cord Holders
The Stringliner polyethylene cord holder is made to store and dispense extension cords, with rotating handles that help wind and release the cord. It holds 100 feet of 14/3 AWG cord, and some models hold up to 150 feet of 16 gauge cord.
