Tapered rollers are specifically designed for conveyor systems requiring controlled product movement around curves. Their tapered profile allows products to maintain proper orientation and alignment while navigating turns, making them essential for curved conveyor sections in distribution, packaging, and material handling applications. Built for smooth operation and consistent tracking, these rollers improve system efficiency and product handling accuracy.
Options: Available in a range of tapered sizes to support curved conveyor configurations, with outside diameter tapers from 2.65” to 1.90” and 2.50” to 1.688”. Standard between-frame (BF) sizes include 21”, 22”, 23”, 27”, 28”, 33”, and 34” to accommodate common conveyor widths. Rollers are typically manufactured from galvanized 14-gauge 2.50” tubing for durability and corrosion resistance in industrial environments.
Sleeving options include urethane, vinyl, and UHMW to optimize product contact, reduce noise, and enhance wear resistance. Custom configurations are available, allowing rollers to be manufactured to specific size and performance requirements. With their specialized geometry and flexible design options, tapered rollers provide reliable, efficient solutions for curved conveyor systems and complex material handling layouts.
Axles are manufactured from durable C1018 steel for strength and stability. Sleeving options include urethane, vinyl, and UHMW to enhance product handling and reduce noise or wear. Coating options such as Kastalon, zinc plating, and other specialty finishes are available to improve corrosion resistance and extend service life. These straight rollers are well-suited for both standard and custom conveyor system designs requiring reliable, long-lasting performance.
