Rubber covered rollers made for the transport and surface contact positions inside production machinery. The range covers printing rollers, paper rollers, paper feed rollers and twist rollers, with covering compounds in EPDM, silicone rubber, PU rubber and SBR selected for the surface the roller touches and the conditions it works in. Beyond those, the same approach applies to conveyor rollers used to move products or raw materials and to coating rollers used to apply coatings or laminates. Rollers are installed directly into the machinery or equipment and are built to need minimal maintenance, which is the point of the exercise in a continuous production line.
Covering compound chosen per duty so a printing roller and a paper feed roller are not asked to share one specification
Correct surface grip stops paper slipping or skewing on feed, which is the usual cause of a jam
Low maintenance construction reduces the downtime a roller change costs in a running line
Coating rollers laid up for an even film avoid the streaking that scraps coated web
Rollers made to the existing shaft and journal dimensions drop into the machine without modification
A worn or wrong hardness cover slips and the paper feed misregisters or jams
Covering compound attacked by inks solvents or cleaning agents fails long before the roller should be changed
Uneven coverings produce streaks and scrap in coating and laminating work
Rollers made to the wrong journal size need machine modification before they can be fitted
Frequent roller replacement in a continuous line costs more in stoppages than in parts

Chosen where release and heat behaviour matter more than abrasion life
Selected where abrasion resistance and load carrying take priority
Used where the roller meets water based media and weather or ozone exposure

EPDM, silicone rubber, PU rubber and SBR, selected for the surface the roller touches and the conditions it works in.
Send the roller or its drawing and the covering will be built to the same shaft and journal dimensions so it fits the machine as before.
Tell us the material being handled and the nip conditions, or supply a sample roller, and the hardness is set against that.
They are fitted directly into the machinery or equipment, which is why the journal and shaft dimensions have to be taken from the machine.
It depends on the covering material, the roller size and whether the core is supplied, and it is confirmed in writing with the quotation.
Send the drawing, capacity or duty cycle you need and we will come back with the factory match, the build detail and the commercial terms.
