Abstract
A reel for round rolling stock, such as fine steel or medium steel, particularly wire, with a coil basket for the wire coil to be coiled and vertically extending guide pins for the wire arranged in the coil basket, and with a raisable and lowerable coil floor which can be actuated by a lifting rod. A device for collecting wire windings hanging from the wire coil is arranged in the area of the upper reel head. The collecting device may be of annular construction and the outer diameter of the annular collecting device essentially corresponds to the outer diameter of the reel and the inner diameter of the annular collecting device corresponds essentially to the outer diameter of the outer surface of the coil basket.
