Aluminium rollers

Aluminium rollers are light-weight and more quiet than steel and are thus becoming more and more of a requirement on installations with strict OH&S codes. Large belt width installations such as coal loading terminals where there are aerial walkways increasingly use aluminium rollers. The corrosion resistance of aluminium rollers is a huge advantage at coastal or high humidity locations.

Features and values

• Light weight - OH&S benefits.
• More quiet than steel - OH&S.
• High tensile strength alloys, no fatigue type failures.
• Fine tolerance, better TIR than steel.
• Corrosion resistance ie suitable for highly corrosive environment (salt) etc.
• Uses less energy (Power Consumption).
• All aluminium tube flair tested.
• Can be used in underground applications - depends on local regulations.
