Abstract
An improved spool for wire having a barrel and frusto-conical end flanges, at least one of which is provided on its inner face with a wire protecting groove extending from the smaller diameter inner peripheral end of the one end flange to wire anchoring means at the larger diameter peripheral portion of the end flange. At the inner peripheral end of the end flange, the groove is substantially tangent with the adjacent end of the barrel and thereafter follows such a curved path to its other end which is substantially the shortest course of travel along the inner face of the end flange.
