Low-Friction Idler Bearings Stand The Heat


Dead shaft idler roll bearings with low-friction, non-contact shield, resist temperatures up to 350° F.

(Neenah, Wis.) - Custom designed low-friction idler bearings from Webex are engineered for low tension, fast-moving lines even at elevated temperatures. The low-friction design enhances free running capabilities to ensure minimal idler induced tension, especially critical with lighter webs. Bearings are protected from dirt and contaminants by a non-contact shield that eliminates the unnecessary friction common with contact seals. Webex adds extra diametral clearance, steel ball cages and heat-resistant lubricant to withstand higher temperatures up to 350° F. For temperatures exceeding 350° F, Webex offers custom idler bearing solutions. Webex remains the only ISO-certified roll producer in North America since 1994.
