non-conformity of the roll's length
I might suggest that one can not really say 'defective length', it might be that the length is not as required, i.e., does not conform, etc.

You could say: "the reel you sent was too short", "you sent a reel with the wrong length", "reel length was shorter than expected", ".. shorter than specified", etc.
Something went wrong...
