Summary

Carbon Fiber Idler Rollers

Double E Group composite Idlers are made using 1/8" wall (3/16" in larger sizes), carbon fiber/epoxy matrix composite. The tube has nearly double the stiffness-to-weight ratio of aluminum and provides unparalleled low rotating inertia.

Double E Group carbon fiber composite idlers offer superior performance. These idlers are ideal for running wide, light weight webs at higher critical speeds, and are the lightest standard idlers Double E Group manufactures. 

These idlers are dynamically balanced to ISO grade G6.3. Each roll is machined to precision tolerances and has a 63 RMS surface finish across the face.

Advantages:

  • Lowest rotating inertia of any Double E Group idler 
  • High strength to weight ratio
  • Higher critical speeds
  • Non-corrosive in ambient environment 
  • Better tension control 
  • Durable, wear resistant coating


Product Information

Specifications - Dead Shaft

"Dead shaft" idler rollers have a bearing in the idler roll body and therefore the dead shaft (axle) remains stationary. The shaft is fixed to the machine frame in various manners.
