ABSTRACT:
An improved wire and cable packaging system for use with a spool wound with wire rotatable about a spiral-wrapped paper tube includes a container and a unitary insert, disposable in the container, both made of cardboard. The container includes a pair of retaining flaps and a pay-out slot for dispensing the wire. The insert is adapted to fit inside the container and is provided for receiving and supporting the tube when assembled. The insert includes a base with a pair of end walls extending vertically from opposing ends of the base. The end walls each having a support flap extending therefrom that is foldable about bend lines to a vertical position, adjacent the end walls, for improving support strength. The insert includes a pair of support flutes centrally formed about each bend line to define a cradle for receiving the tube. The retaining flaps of the container also have a flute for engaging the tube when the retaining flaps are moved from an open position to a closed position to thereby hold the tube and the insert in place.
