Part of the Poly V Roller Bearings range, used in Warehouse and Distribution Centres.
Key Benefits
- Designed for 50 mm, 50.6 mm, 50.8 mm, or 60 mm tube diameters with a 15 mm shaft
- Preloaded 6804*2 bearings ensure smooth, low-friction rotation
- 08B14TEETH sprocket allows integration into chain-driven roller systems
- Nylon66 housing resists wear and operates quietly under load
- Suitable for washdown and clean environments due to plastic construction
Application Scenarios
- Gravity roller lines in packaging and assembly where quiet operation is required
- Sprocket roller systems in material handling lines with chain-driven movement
- Poly-V roller applications in conveyors with belt-driven power transfer
- Washdown areas in food and beverage processing where metal corrosion is a concern
- Integration into roller tracks or modular conveyor sections with consistent tube fit
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building gravity or powered roller lines
- Material handling equipment builders requiring consistent end cap fit
- Industrial distributors stocking plastic roller end caps by tube and shaft size
- Production line builders using poly-V or sprocket rollers in automated lines
- Warehouse automation contractors integrating low-noise components into conveyors
Problems It Solves
- Mismatched end caps that do not align with existing tube diameters or shaft sizes
- Noise and vibration from metal housings in high-speed or sensitive environments
- Corrosion in washdown areas due to metal components in plastic roller systems
- Inconsistent bearing preload leading to premature wear or binding
- Need for a single supplier for end caps that match tube size, shaft diameter, and sprocket type
Technical Features
- Plastic housing made from Nylon66 for durability and low noise
- Preloaded 6804*2 bearings for consistent free rotation under load
- 08B14TEETH sprocket for compatibility with standard 8 mm pitch chains
- 15 mm shaft diameter fits standard roller shafts used in gravity and powered systems
- Available in multiple tube size variants: 50 mm, 50.6 mm, 50.8 mm, and 60 mm
Materials
- Nylon66 housing resists abrasion and operates quietly in industrial environments
- Nylon66 shaft provides consistent fit and wear resistance with metal tubes
- Plastic construction avoids galvanic corrosion in wet or washdown areas
- Non-metallic components reduce noise during high-speed operation
- Suitable for use with steel, stainless steel, and PVC tubes
Quality Control
- Shaft rotation checked by hand for free movement and no binding
- Sprocket alignment verified to ensure chain engagement without wobble
- Housing dimensions measured against tube diameter tolerance
- Bearing preload confirmed to prevent axial play
- Material grade verified as Nylon66 before final packing
Customization Options
- Special bore sizes available upon request for large volume orders
- Alternative sprocket tooth counts or chain pitches may be considered
- Custom tube size variants can be developed for high-volume applications
- Color or marking options available for identification in production lines
- Alternative shaft materials may be evaluated for specific load or environment needs
Use Guide
- Verify that the tube diameter matches the unit's specified size before installation
- Ensure the 15 mm shaft fits the roller shaft without binding or excessive play
- Check sprocket alignment with the chain to prevent skipping or wear
- Use in environments where plastic housing performance is suitable for the load and temperature
- Replace the unit if bearing noise or shaft binding increases during operation
