Common Applications for Grooved and Hard Chrome Rollers

Each compound is matched to your application, chemical environment, and operating conditions.

Grooved Rubber (Spreader Rollers)

Essential for paper, textile, and film industries. Precision-cut grooves actively prevent wrinkles or creases as the material travels at high speeds.

Hard Chrome Plated Rollers

The standard for extreme wear and high-precision applications like extrusion and coating. Provides exceptional scratch resistance and mirror polish.

Grooved NBR / EPDM

Underlying rubber selected based on environment - NBR for general/oily, EPDM for UV processes and harsh chemicals.

Chrome Chill & Heating Rollers

Highly thermally conductive, allowing internal water/oil circulation to rapidly cool or heat the web material without sticking.
