ABSTRACT:
A quick-connect pay-off cap assembly facilitating the dereeling of wire from a spool. The assembly includes a support member which carries a freely rotatable, flanged take-off wheel and a stationary circular tension brush having multiple tines extending past the wheel periphery and adapted to be brushed by the wire as it passes the flange of the wheel. The support member includes a radially expansible friction locking part which is insertable into either the bore of the spool or a hollow part of the support spindle which carries the spool. Manually operable means are provided on the support member for actuating the friction locking part. The arrangement is such that it enables an especially quick installation of the cap assembly to a particular spool or its spindle, all without the need for special tools or equipment.
