A continuous rod transport system has a reel with a cage (100) and a removable hub (200). The cage has support members (110) interconnected by rings (160) to hold the rod coiled in the cage (100). The removable hub (200) has extending arms (220) that removably attach to the cage's support members (110). Locks (240) on the ends of the arms (220) can removably lock the hub (200) to the cages (100). Because the hub (200) is removable, the cage (100) with coiled rod can be shipped separate from the hub (200), thereby significantly reducing the transportation weight. Preferably, the cage has a diameter of 14-ft so two cages can be held on a stand and can be transported in overseas containers. In this way, the coiled rod in the cage can be transported to various areas in less costly and time-consuming ways than currently available. |
