The full name of HDPE roller is high-density polyethylene roller, it has better performance compared to traditional steel idler roller, having large market. It has better corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance. The versatility of this material enables us to satisfy a varied range of uses where other plastic and steel roller have failed. HDPE conveyor rollers are designed to provide a longer operating life than those traditional rollers, especially in dirty and wet conditions. Our HDPE roller has also been used extensively on conveyors transporting abrasive sand, iron ore and coal.
Asset Protection (Belt):
When steel rollers fail, they can produce sharp rotating edges, which can cut and rip conveyor belts at a very significant cost, causing unplanned downtime and interruption to material supply. In turn, a broken conveyor belt traveling at high speed can pose a significant risk to employees working in the vicinity of the operating plant.
Advantages:
- 50% lighter than steel roller, longer lifespan.
- Can be used in almost any application where steel rollers are used.
- Lower start-up costs on conveyor drives because of lighter weight.
- Recyclable, energy efficient, decreases vibration.
- Lower maintenance costs, reduce damage to conveyor belts.
- Quieter operation than traditional steel rollers.
- Water tight sealing arrangement.
- Process material does not adhere to or build up on rollers, the primary cause of belt mis-tracking, spillage and leakage.
- Performs well in harsh weather and extreme applications.
Application:
• Mining
• Steel mill
• Cement plant
• Power plant
• Chemical plant
• Sea port
• Storage
• Etc.
