Humidity Is No Match for These Rollers

July 21, 2017
Faigle constructs rollers that are durable for up to 20 years.

Support and guiding rollers reliably deliver 15 to 20 years of tough, continuous operation with performances of over 65,000 km – even under harsh operating conditions. The high quality of rollers is ensured by the PAS-PU material which was specially developed for these types of applications. The plastic has excellent mechanical properties including high wear resistance, resistance to humidity and grease, and resistance to climatic conditions.

 

Rollers made of hydrolysis resistant polyurethane as protection against hydrolysis, which is the decay of plastic by water molecules, are also available. These rollers can therefore be used trouble-free, even in regions with high air humidity.

 

Support and guiding rollers also have excellent damping properties. The design, material, ball bearings, and high-precision manufacturing technique are specially selected to achieve maximum vibration dampening as well as quiet and smooth operation.
