Core Design & Assembly

The strength and performance of a V guide roll begin with its core. Universal Urethane offers full fabrication and refurbishing of cores, engineered for stability under load and high-speed rotation:

  • Core Materials: Steel, aluminum, or cast metal—available in solid or tube form
  • Precision Machining: Axial groove, journal bores, and bearing seats made to tight tolerances
  • Dynamic Balancing: Completed cores (with shafts) are balanced to eliminate vibration and run smoothly at speed
  • Full Assemblies: Supplied ready-to-install with shafts, bearings, couplings, and urethane covers

 

Urethane Cover & Groove Engineering

Our urethane covering is designed to perform under real-world stresses. The groove geometry is crafted to maximize guidance while preserving durability.

  • Durometer Options: Standard 85–90 Shore A, with select elastomers up to 95 Shore A
  • Surface Finish Options: Ground smooth, textured, or custom Ra-specified finishes
  • Groove Profiles: Standard V, helix, spiral, diamond, herringbone, crepe, checkerboard, or custom geometries
  • Performance Qualities: Excellent abrasion resistance, impact absorption, traction, and non-marring contact with belt edges
  • Bonding Process: Cores are grit-blasted, primed, and urethane is heat-cured to ensure bond integrity—even under cyclic stresses
