Purpose-Built Swing Arm Rolls for Dynamic Strip Adjustment

Engineered to provide precise, adjustable positioning in high-speed processing lines, our swing arm rolls ensure seamless strip alignment and tension control in demanding industrial environments.

  • Rough ground textures or diamond groove patterns deliver superior grip, ensuring precise strip control even on oily or slippery materials.
  • Precision steel cores coated with high-performance polyurethane withstand dynamic loads and tension while resisting wear and corrosion.
  • Polyurethane coatings, available in the 90–95 Shore A range, provide an optimal balance between impact absorption, grip, and long-term durability, enabling rapid adjustments and reliable operation under continuous, high-pressure conditions.

Complete Roller Solutions: New Core Design or Expert Roller Recovery

 We understand every operation has unique requirements. That’s why we offer both new roll design and cost-effective roller recovery services:

  • Custom Core Design and Manufacturing:
    If you need a new swing arm or separator roll, our engineering team can design and fabricate a core tailored to your application. We work with premium materials like steel, aluminum, and cast metals to ensure your new roller meets specific size, hardness, and load-bearing specifications.
  • Strip and Recover Existing Rollers:
    If your current rollers are worn but the cores remain intact, our strip and recover services are a cost-effective option. We remove the old urethane, inspect the core for integrity, and apply a new, high-performance urethane cover using advanced bonding techniques, extending service life and maintaining optimal performance.

Why Choose Urethane Swing Arm & Separator Rolls?

 Urethane offers a range of benefits that make it the preferred choice for swing arm and separator rolls in heavy-duty steel processing lines:

  • High Wear Resistance: Urethane withstands repeated contact with abrasive steel, minimizing roll replacement and downtime.
  • Impact Absorption:
    Urethane absorbs shock and vibration, protecting both the roll and steel products from damage.
  • Non-Marring Surface:
    Prevent dents, scratches, and surface defects on steel products with urethane’s smooth, compliant surface.
  • Chemical Resistance:
    Urethane resists coolants, lubricants, and other processing chemicals, extending roll life.
  • Consistent Performance:
    Maintains uniform pressure and contact, ensuring accurate thickness reduction and precise material handling.
  • Customizable Hardness:
    Available in 90–95 Shore A, urethane can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of high-load, high-impact applications.
