Stainless steel belt conveyor rolling supports
Rolling supports to maximize productivity and prolong belt life
Almost every conveyor belt needs some form of support to hold the belt up between the end stations. We offer a selection of rolling supports – with and without bearings – to meet the needs of different applications.
Wheeled shafts for simple applications
The simplest type of rolling supports consist of plastic wheels mounted to a steel shaft. These are generally used as supports in simpler applications, where product weight and other factors are suitable.
Idlers for least-friction requirements
Belt conveyor steel idlers offer the least amount of friction against the belt and consist of steel tubes mounted to a shaft with ball bearings. These low-friction rolling conveyor bearings can also have rubber profiles attached to their outside.
Breakpoints for angle changes
For steel belt conveyors where the belt needs to change angle, our breakpoints are carefully designed to limit the change to less than 3° over any single roller. They also ensure entry and exit angles to the break point at no more than 2°, so the required change can be achieved without over-stressing the belt.
