Abstract
Substantially slip and skid resistant reel carriers are disclosed for storing, carrying and shipping reels of motion picture film, videotape, magnetic tape and the like. The reel carriers include a plurality of tapered cylindrical bumpers or feet formed of a material having a high coefficient of friction which are adhered to the external surfaces of the top and bottom walls of the reel carrier. In preferred embodiment the bumpers are formed of a polypropylene-butaliene copolymer and are riveted to the reel carrier. The reel carriers exhibit satisfactory functional affinity for conveyor belts and are well suited for shipping and handling by contemporary automated shipping equipment.
