All rollers Steel HDPE UHMWPE Not sure which roller you need?

HDPE rollers are well suited to the wet, abrasive conditions on coal conveyors. They offer safer handling and quieter running, with a non-rusting shell that reduces the risk of belt damage from steel roller failures.

Run-out and noise

Radial run-out is 0.2 mm for rollers below 550 mm long. Low total indicator run-out (TIR) helps the belt travel smoothly and limits vibration. See the figures for longer rollers.

The HDPE shell also damps vibration at the belt contact surface. Noise levels still depend on belt speed, load and condition.

A shell that does not rust

HDPE takes up very little moisture. Its low-adhesion surface helps limit material build-up, which is useful in wet and abrasive conditions.

The shell is wear- and impact-resistant. Seals help keep water and dust out of the roller.

Handling & belt protection

HDPE designs can be around 50% lighter than steel.* Compare complete roller weights in the sizes you use.

Less weight reduces lifting effort during change-outs and can reduce muscle-strain risk.

Seized steel rollers can wear through into razor-edged “potato-peelers”. Corroded shells can split into “pizza cutters”, leaving a sharp edge spinning.

If an HDPE roller fails, the belt may keep running until the next maintenance opportunity, subject to site assessment and monitoring.

This is a site assessment, not an automatic run-on allowance. The guide does not authorise continued operation of a failed roller.

Invest in the small components that protect your big-ticket assets.

*The 50% figure is indicative of HDPE design potential, not a verified weight saving for Superior assemblies. Confirm the complete roller weights for your selected configuration.
