Key Benefits
- 12 mm shaft diameter matches standard roller shafts for easy integration
- Nylon66 housing resists wear and corrosion in washdown and humid areas
- Integrated 6804*2 precision bearing ensures smooth, low-friction rotation
- 08B14TEETH sprocket allows engagement with standard roller chains
- Available for 50 mm and 60 mm tube diameters with multiple wall thickness options
Application Scenarios
- Gravity roller conveyors in packaging lines where quiet and smooth operation is required
- Assembly lines using plastic roller bearings for light to medium load transfer
- Washdown areas in food or pharmaceutical production where metal components would corrode
- Conveyor sections where plastic end caps reduce noise and protect tube surfaces
- Integration into O-belt, poly-V, or sprocket roller systems requiring consistent shaft fit
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building gravity roller lines with plastic end caps
- Material handling equipment builders using plastic roller bearings in modular systems
- Industrial distributors stocking plastic roller end caps by shaft and tube size
- Manufacturers of light industrial conveyors needing quiet, low-maintenance components
- Automation contractors installing conveyors in washdown or sensitive environments
Problems It Solves
- Mismatched shaft sizes between end caps and roller shafts causing installation delays
- Corrosion in wet environments when metal end caps are used on plastic or PVC tubes
- Noisy operation from loose or poorly fitted end caps in high-speed conveyor sections
- Inconsistent roller performance due to low-quality or non-precision bearings
- Difficulty sourcing end caps that match both tube diameter and shaft size in one unit
Technical Features
- 12 mm shaft diameter designed for standard roller shafts
- Nylon66 housing for durability and resistance to moisture and chemicals
- Integrated 6804*2 precision bearing for consistent rotation and low friction
- 08B14TEETH sprocket for reliable chain engagement in drive systems
- Available in multiple tube size variants: 50 mm and 60 mm with different wall thicknesses
Materials
- Nylon66 housing for resistance to moisture, wear and impact in industrial environments
- Nylon66 shaft for consistent fit and low friction with metal or plastic tubes
- Precision 6804*2 bearing for long life and smooth rotation under load
- 08B14TEETH sprocket for reliable engagement with standard roller chains
Quality Control
- Bearing rotation checked by hand for free movement and no binding
- Shaft diameter verified against 12 mm specification using calipers
- Tube diameter compatibility confirmed for 50 mm and 60 mm variants
- Sprocket teeth inspected for correct pitch and alignment
- Material grade confirmed as Nylon66 before packing
Customization Options
- Special bore sizes available upon request for large volume orders
- Different sprocket tooth counts or chain types can be discussed for bulk production
- Alternative shaft materials or housing materials may be considered with high volume
- Custom tube size compatibility can be developed for specific conveyor designs
Use Guide
- Ensure the tube diameter matches the end cap specification (50 mm or 60 mm)
- Verify the shaft diameter is 12 mm before installation to avoid misalignment
- Install the end cap with the bearing seated fully into the tube end
- Check sprocket alignment with the chain to prevent skipping or wear
- Use in environments where moisture or chemicals are present to benefit from Nylon66 resistance
