So why not put us to the test?

AgriculturalSome years ago we found that this harsh environment was causing bearings to seize up after being contaminated by soil. We respondedby designing our type 300 sealedbearing rollers which, even afternumerous wash-downs, continue to work effectively whatever theweather conditions.

Building and constructionCivil engineering projects require roller conveyors to work round theclock in all weather conditions. We understand the needs of thisindustry and can recommend rollerswhich are best suited for your individual requirements.

Air cargo / airportsOur robust type 250 precision bearing roller is perfect for theextremely arduous conditions prevalent in this sector. Whether our rollers are fitted in conveyors moving luggage inside the airportbuilding, or onto airside vehicles or cargo dollies operating in all weather conditions, they continue to work reliably.

Some of the many industries that benefit

Conveyor manufacturersA number of key conveyor manufacturers in the UK and Europe regularly rely on us to supply conveyor rollers. They especiallyappreciate the way that we guaranteeand meet fast delivery times to support their production schedules.This is possible as we keep large raw material stocks and have CNCsaws and high capacity assembly machinery to enable us to produceover 20,000 rollers per week.

Food handlingNaturally hygiene is of the utmostimportance in this industry and wemanufacture with materials that have all the necessary food safety credentials. Stainless steel is themost popular choice, which whencombined with polypropylene bearing housings ensures the rollers withstand frequent wash-downs,even where strong detergents are used.

Chemical and pharmaceutical We have carefully chosen materialsideally suited to work effectively inthese industries. Typically, rollers aresupplied with stainless steel tubesand spindles. Polypropylene bearing housings with stainless steel ballbearings are also often used as theyare best suited to withstanding acidsand other corrosive products.
