Ball Transfer Unit

NL Series Nylon Ball Transfer Units

NL units use a nylon load ball and, in most models, a nylon or plastic body. The point is contact: a nylon ball will not mark a painted panel, a polished sheet or a printed carton, and it runs quietly on a bench that people work at all day.

The problem this group solves

Steel balls burnish and scratch finished surfaces, and on a long inspection bench the noise of steel on steel is a real complaint. Nylon solves both at the cost of load rating and temperature range.

How to choose

Use nylon where marking matters and loads are light to moderate; go back to a steel ball where the load, temperature or abrasive dust would deform the nylon.

Typical applications

  • Painted and coated panel handling
  • Printed carton and display packaging lines
  • Inspection and packing benches where surface finish is graded
  • Light assembly fixtures in electronics and appliance work

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a nylon ball transfer unit mark an aluminium sheet?

A nylon load ball is softer than aluminium, so it is the usual specification for finished sheet and painted panel handling.

What temperature can nylon units take?

Nylon loses strength well before steel does, so continuous hot applications — oven exits, hot forming — should use a steel ball unit.
