Rubber Roller 101
Rubber is applied to rollers by means of extruding uncured rubber into a strip that wraps around a metal core that is clean prepared and primed. Autoclaves then vulcanize the rubber to the core cohesively. The rubber is then ground and polished to exacting standards, such as:
- TIR – total indicated runout typically held to within 0.001″
- Taper – straightness within 0.003″
- Surface Finish – to meet the required Ra spec, typically 20-200 Ra
- Durometer – +/- 5 points.
- Finish Diameter – can hold as tight as +/- 0.001″
