UHMWPE Conveyor Roller Features
1. Abrasion resistance and long life
The shell is made from UHMWPE which has abrasion resistance 10 times that of HDPE and 7 times that of steel. UHMWPE roller have been subjected to continuous abrasion in very extreme quarrying, coastal and industrial applications.
2. Impact resistance and Impact energy absorbing
UHMWPE has the highest impact strength of any engineering plastics, about three times which of nylon, two times that of PC, five times that of ABS, withstands repeated impaction, even at -196 it is tough, together with its superior abrasion and corrosion resistance. UHMW-PE has made itself ideally suited for industrial applications in complicate and rough environments.
3. Effective sealing system
The primary labyrinth seal prevents most of the dust to get into the bearing house, and no water could leak in.
The narrow clearance between bearing house and shaft forms the second sealing, the bearing house are made of UHMWPE which has a very low surface energy and are anti-adhesion, so it is repulsive to dust and water. It is quite difficulty for dust to get through the narrow channel.
4. Light weight and energy saving
UHMWPE rollers are only one third less in weight than steel roller, they are even lighter than HDPE roller, since they have superior strength, Light weight and low friction result in considerable energy saving.
