UHMWPE Crowned Glass Handling Roller with Extended Threaded Inner Ring and Glass Balls – 64mm OD

UHMWPE Crowned Glass Handling Roller with Extended Threaded Inner Ring

Gentle Glass Contact. Secure Shaft Mounting. All-Polymer Bearing Construction.

This 64mm UHMWPE crowned glass handling roller features UHMWPE inner and outer rings, a UHMWPE ball cage, and glass rolling elements.

Designed for specialized glass transportation and precision guide systems, the roller combines a curved polymer running surface with an extended inner ring featuring threaded locking holes.

Unlike conventional rollers with stainless steel mounting hubs, this design uses UHMWPE for the inner ring, outer ring, and ball cage, providing a lightweight polymer bearing assembly with non-metallic rolling elements.

The extended inner ring allows mechanical shaft positioning through compatible locking screws.

Key Features

Crowned UHMWPE Outer Ring

• Curved running surface designed for controlled glass contact.

• Excellent abrasion resistance and low-friction material properties.

• Polymer contact surface helps avoid direct metal-to-glass contact.

• Precision CNC-machined profile for consistent geometry.

Extended UHMWPE Inner Ring

• Extended inner ring height of 20mm.

• Integrated threaded holes for shaft locking.

• Allows secure positioning when installed with suitable screws.

• Lightweight alternative to conventional stainless steel mounting hubs.

UHMWPE Ball Cage

• Maintains spacing between rolling elements.

• Lightweight, wear-resistant polymer construction.

• Suitable for specialized polymer bearing assemblies.

Glass Rolling Elements

• Non-metallic rolling elements.

• Good corrosion resistance.

• Support smooth rotational movement under suitable operating conditions.

Typical Applications

LCD & FPD Glass Handling Equipment

Suitable for selected glass transfer mechanisms requiring polymer contact surfaces and customized roller positioning.

Glass Conveyor Systems

Designed for specialized glass transportation and guide assemblies where controlled contact and wear resistance are important.

Precision Glass Processing Machinery

A potential solution for glass handling mechanisms requiring non-metallic bearing construction.

Industrial Automation Equipment

Suitable for customized conveyor guidance and rotating assemblies with specific mounting requirements.

Why Choose This Roller?

Industrial glass handling systems require careful consideration of surface protection, rotational performance, and shaft positioning.

This roller addresses these requirements through three key design elements:

1. Crowned UHMWPE Outer Surface – Provides a wear-resistant polymer contact interface for compatible glass handling systems.

2. Extended Threaded UHMWPE Inner Ring – Supports shaft positioning without a separate metal inner hub.

3. UHMWPE Cage with Glass Balls – Creates a non-metallic bearing assembly with corrosion-resistant rolling elements.

This material combination is particularly useful when equipment designers prefer polymer bearing components and customized mounting structures.

Actual load capacity, locking strength, rotational performance, and service life depend on operating conditions and should be verified for the intended application.
