ABSTRACT:
A reel core having a molded hub section of generally cylindrical shape including a barrel surface upon which rope-like articles may be wound or coiled and end flanges. The hub section has an axle bore to receive an axle upon which the reel core is rotated. At each end of the hub section is a flange mounting rim comprised of two thin rim walls spaced apart the thickness of the flange material. Each outer rim wall has a rim notch. Each flange has an aperture including a notch corresponding to the notch on the flange mounting rim. The inner edge of the aperture adjacent to the notch is inserted into the rim notch of the mounting rim from one direction, and rotated in that same direction to mount the flanges within the rim. A variety of sizes, shapes, and materials may be used to form the flanges, which may be selectively attached or removed.
