waste reel

This sounds nicer!
See reference.

Some systems refer to the rewind reel or rewind mandrel (see http://www.northfieldcorp.com/pdfs/360-Series-Manual.pdf)
but I think waste reel or scrap reel is the better translation.
Note from asker:
Thanks a lot for the references. In the end I used scrap reel since I had to submit before I got your input. I think it is good enough since it is for an internal SOP.
