Part of the Plastic Roller Bearings KTR range, used in Warehouse and Distribution Centres.

Key Benefits

  • Designed for 30 mm tube diameter with 1.5 mm or 1.8 mm wall thickness
  • Compatible with 10 mm shaft diameter for secure fit and alignment
  • Free running and quiet operation due to integrated precision bearings
  • Housing made from plastic or nylon for lightweight and corrosion-resistant performance
  • Suitable for use with steel, stainless steel, and PVC tubes in various industrial settings

Application Scenarios

  • Gravity roller conveyors in warehouse loading and unloading areas
  • Assembly lines handling medium to heavy weight components
  • Mould manufacturing lines where smooth and quiet roller movement is required
  • Electrical parts manufacturing where vibration and noise must be minimised
  • Lightweight and medium weight conveying systems in engine and industrial equipment production

Who It Is For

  • Conveyor system integrators building gravity roller lines
  • Material handling equipment builders using plastic roller bearings in roller assemblies
  • Industrial distributors sourcing plastic roller bearings in volume
  • Manufacturers of gravity rollers, sprocket rollers, and O-belt rollers
  • Production line builders requiring low-noise, free-running roller components

Problems It Solves

  • Inconsistent roller performance due to poor bearing fit in standard tube sizes
  • Noise and vibration from non-precision bearings in gravity roller systems
  • Corrosion or wear in metal bearings when used with PVC or stainless steel tubes
  • Difficulty in aligning rollers when the bearing does not match the shaft and tube dimensions
  • Need for a single source of matched plastic roller bearings for multiple roller types

Technical Features

  • Precision bearings integrated into the housing for smooth and quiet operation
  • Housing made from plastic or nylon material for lightweight and chemical resistance
  • Designed specifically for 30 mm tube diameter with 1.5 mm or 1.8 mm wall thickness
  • Shaft diameter of 10 mm ensures secure fit and alignment with the roller shaft
  • Free running design reduces friction and effort during product movement

Materials

  • Plastic housing for lightweight and non-corrosive use
  • Nylon housing for improved wear resistance and durability
  • Precision bearings integrated into the housing for consistent rotation
  • Compatible with steel, stainless steel, and PVC tubes
  • Suitable for washdown and clean environments due to non-metallic construction

Quality Control

  • Bore size verified to match the 10 mm shaft diameter
  • Precision bearing checked for free rotation and smooth movement
  • Housing dimensions confirmed against 30 mm tube diameter and 1.5 or 1.8 mm wall thickness
  • Material grade confirmed as plastic or nylon based on order specification

Customization Options

  • Special bore sizes available upon request for large quantity orders
  • Alternative housing materials possible based on volume and application
  • Custom model numbers available for specific tube and shaft dimensions
  • Adjustments to wall thickness or tube diameter can be considered for bulk production

Use Guide

  • Ensure the tube diameter is 30 mm and wall thickness is 1.5 mm or 1.8 mm before installation
  • Verify the shaft diameter is 10 mm to match the bearing bore
  • Use the correct model (KTR-30X1.5-10 or KTR-30X1.8-10) based on wall thickness
  • Install with the housing aligned to the tube to prevent binding
  • Avoid overloading beyond the intended application load to maintain bearing life
