pressing bearing metal roller track W-38TS
The W-38TS is a pressing bearing metal roller track made from carbon steel, designed for low to medium load conveying applications. It features a roller wheel with a diameter of 38 mm and width of 12 mm, mounted on an M6 shaft with a self locking nut. The track frame measures 29.6 mm in width, 45 mm in height, and 2.3 mm in thickness, with a roller track height of 53 mm. Available in lengths of 1800 mm, 2400 mm, and 3000 mm, with roller pitches of 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm, and 150 mm, each roller unit supports a load capacity of 20 kg. The track is galvanized for corrosion resistance and suitable for use in material handling equipment and warehouse systems.

Key Benefits
- Galvanized carbon steel construction for improved durability in dry or mildly humid environments
- Pressing bearing design reduces manufacturing cost compared to cut bearing tracks
- M6 shaft with self locking nut ensures secure roller fixation during operation
- Roller pitch options allow flexible spacing to match product size and load distribution
- Available in multiple lengths to fit standard conveyor frame dimensions
- Low weight and simple assembly reduce installation time and shipping cost
Application Scenarios
- Conveyor lines in warehouses handling light flat trays or small packaging units
- Assembly line transfer points where low load and smooth movement are required
- Material handling equipment for small electronic components or plastic parts
- Floor-mounted roller tracks used to move light tool trolleys or storage bins
- Short conveyors in packaging stations where product alignment is critical
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building low to medium load conveyors
- Material handling equipment builders using roller tracks in light-duty applications
- Warehouse automation contractors installing simple transfer lines
- Industrial distributors stocking metal roller tracks by load and size
- Production line builders needing cost-effective roller tracks for light goods
Problems It Solves
- Need for a low-cost alternative to cut bearing roller tracks without sacrificing basic load performance
- Inconsistent roller spacing in tracks made from separate components
- Difficulty in securing rollers on shafts without additional fasteners
- Lack of standard length options for modular conveyor designs
- Requirement for a galvanized finish to resist surface rust in indoor environments
Technical Features
- Manufactured using pressing wheel and plate method for consistent roller alignment
- Self locking nut on M6 shaft prevents roller from loosening during operation
- Galvanized finish applied to carbon steel for surface protection
- Roller pitch options allow spacing adjustment to match product footprint
- Frame profile designed to maintain consistent roller track height across the length
- Roller wheel diameter of 38 mm and width of 12 mm for stable support of flat items
Materials
- Carbon steel frame and rollers for general industrial use
- Galvanized finish on carbon steel to resist surface rust in indoor environments
- M6 shaft with self locking nut for secure roller retention
Quality Control
- Roller pitch measured at multiple points along the track to ensure consistency
- Load capacity tested on sample units to verify 20 kg per piece rating
- Galvanization thickness checked visually for even coating
- Shaft and nut assembly verified for tight fit and no looseness
- Track length measured against ordered specification before packing
Customization Options
- Available in three standard lengths: 1800 mm, 2400 mm, 3000 mm
- Roller pitch options: 50 mm, 75 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm
- Other models in the W Series available with different roller sizes and capacities
- Galvanized finish standard; non-galvanized version not specified in facts
Use Guide
- Ensure the roller pitch matches the spacing of the product being conveyed
- Do not exceed 20 kg per roller unit to maintain safe operation
- Use only on flat, smooth surfaces such as trays or rigid packaging
- Avoid use on soft or uneven bottomed items like cloth-wrapped goods
- Mount the track on a stable frame to prevent wobbling or misalignment

Compared With Other Options
| Cut bearing metal roller tracks | Pressing bearing tracks are lower cost and faster to produce, but may have less precise bearing fit than cut versions |
|---|---|
| W-50TS model | The W-38TS has a smaller roller diameter and lower load capacity, making it better suited for lighter items than the W-50TS |
| Plastic roller tracks | Metal tracks offer higher load capacity and durability under repeated use, but are heavier and more expensive than plastic alternatives |
