Key Benefits
- Matches tube diameters of 50 mm, 50.6 mm, and 50.8 mm for direct fit on existing rollers
- Hex shaft provides positive drive connection to prevent slippage under load
- Metal housing ensures strength and long life in heavy-duty conveying environments
- Pre-precision bearings allow smooth, free-running operation with low friction
- Available in multiple shaft size variants to match specific roller shaft requirements
Application Scenarios
- Gravity roller conveyors in warehouse loading and unloading areas where consistent shaft fit is needed
- Assembly lines using gravity rollers with hex shaft drive for alignment and positioning
- Medium to heavy weight conveying in engine or mould manufacturing where drive stability matters
- Conveyor sections requiring positive drive transfer between rollers without belt or chain
- Integration into sprocket rollers, O-belt rollers, or poly-V rollers where hex shafts are standard
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building gravity roller lines with specific shaft requirements
- Material handling equipment builders sourcing consistent roller bearings for production
- Industrial distributors stocking roller bearings by shaft size and tube diameter
- Manufacturers of gravity rollers needing reliable, matched components for assembly
Problems It Solves
- Mismatched shaft sizes that prevent secure mounting on standard roller tubes
- Slippage or misalignment in drive systems due to round shafts under load
- Inconsistent bearing fit across multiple roller units in a single conveyor line
- Need for custom machining when standard bearings do not match existing shaft dimensions
- Reliance on multiple suppliers for bearings, shafts, and tube compatibility
Technical Features
- Designed for tube diameters of 50 mm, 50.6 mm, and 50.8 mm
- Hex shaft configuration for positive drive transfer
- Metal housing for strength and long service life
- Pre-precision bearings for smooth, low-friction rotation
- Available in multiple shaft size variants to match specific roller designs
Materials
- Metal housing for high strength and resistance to impact and wear
- Precision bearings integrated into the housing for consistent rotation
- Hex shaft made from durable metal to maintain drive integrity under load
Quality Control
- Shaft size and hex dimensions verified against the model specification
- Rotation checked by hand to confirm free movement without binding
- Tube diameter compatibility confirmed before final packaging
- Housing integrity checked for cracks or deformation
Customization Options
- Special bore sizes available upon request for large volume orders
- Shaft length or hex size can be adjusted based on customer requirements
- Alternative shaft materials or surface treatments available for specific environments
Use Guide
- Confirm tube diameter matches the bearing model before installation
- Ensure hex shaft size matches the drive component or roller shaft
- Check that the 11 mm shaft length fits within the roller housing depth
- Use the correct torque when mounting to avoid shaft deformation
- Inspect for binding or misalignment after installation to ensure smooth rotation
