MPS

MPS Series: Heavy-Duty Rollers for Tough Environments and Demanding Loads

The MPS series is comprised of idle or driven rollers for the transportation of medium and heavy loads. Their build allows them to be used both indoors and outdoors, in normal, dusty, contaminated and/or damp conditions.
Made completely in steel, and have been used for more than 40 years in an extremely wide range of applications. Initially created for the bulk handling sector, they rapidly found applications in all industrial handling systems, above all in harsh environments.
The bearing housing, calibrated for ISO M7, are welded to the end of the tube, forming a solid structure known as UNIBLOC. The bearings, with permanently lubricated spheres, are rigid radial ball bearings, which are further protected with a labyrinth seal system known as MECA. The extremity of this system is comprised of a v-ring inserted into a cap in galvanised sheet metal.
The various internal components guarantee adequate space for grease, which ensures lubrication and further protection from external contamination.
The drawn and calibrated steel shaft can be both drilled and threaded, for screw fitting (contributing to the overall rigidity of the structure) or fitted with metal-ended sockets for CH17 wrench fitting (similar to the method usually employed in the bulk sector).

Catalog Unit Handling Roller (EN|IT)

Optional

Flanges

For the rollers diameter 76 and 89 mm, aluminium flanges are supplied separately in a special kit, composed by 2 elements and complete with zinc plated fixing bolts to assemble them in different ways. Attention: the screws must be tightened by torque wrench = 13 Nm

Optional

PVC covered rollers

Although not special, information on this design is given. The rough or zinc plated steel tube “N” or “Z and J” rollers with “D” values as per table, can be covered with a soft, elastic and smooth surface (hardness 73 ShA) grey colour (RAL 9006) PVC (Polyvinylchloride) plastic tube, particularly resistant to chemical agents. It is normally used to protect the roller surfaces and mostly to avoid scratching painted, enamelled, smooth, etc. load, and in some cases to increase friction. The PVC lagging is simply fitted on the tube with excellent coupling thanks to elastic tightening. Application temperatures ranging from -10°C to +50°C.

Optional

Rilsan coating

Rilsan coated: heat treatment based on Rilsan Polyamide powders of light grey colour, with particular resistance characteristics to chemical agents and wear

Optional

Rollers with Polyurethane lagging

Polyurethane lagging with 90 ± 5 Sh.A hardness, orange colour, a material which is particularly resistant to cuts, wear and abrasion. Hardness, colour and thickness can be supplied with other values on request.

Optional

Rollers with rubber lagging

Lagging with 70 ± 5 Sh.A hardness, with surface turned to 3 mm minimum thickness. On request the lagging can be with different hardnesses or thicknesses or with glued rubber, Adiprene, Neoprene and Silicone compatibily with the number of rollers requested.
