Abstract
Apparatus (10) is disclosed for mounting a reel (40) having a material (41) wound thereon. The apparatus includes a rigid support member (20) and a first projection (21) extending generally perpendicularly from the support member for holding the reel. Extending outwardly from the support member is a second projection (22) which is spaced apart from the first projection. Fastened to this second projection and coupled about an edge of the reel of the first projection are means (60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65) for providing a braking action to the reel as material is drawn therefrom.
