Troughing Idler Set

Troughing Idler Set is the primary assembly that shapes and supports a loaded conveyor belt into a trough. It consists of a central horizontal roller flanked by two or more angled side rollers. This configuration creates a deep, curved profile that effectively contains bulk materials, preventing spillage and increasing carrying capacity. By providing stable, low-friction support along the belt's carrying side, it ensures smooth material transport, reduces belt wear, and is fundamental to the efficient operation of most bulk handling conveyor systems.

Conveyor idlers: Available in diameters ranging from 50 mm to 219 mm (2 1/2" to 8 5/8"), with lengths from 190 mm to 3400 mm, to suit a wide range of conveyor systems.

Idler tube: Made from Q235 (equivalent to SS400/JIS G3101/EN10025/ASTM A36 ) steel for durability and strength.

Idler shaft: Constructed from 45# (equivalent to DIN:C45/EN:C45/JIS:S45C/ASTM A1045 )steel for reliable performance.

Bearing: Equipped with single and double row deep groove ball bearings, with 2RZ and 2Z options available, and C3 clearance for enhanced efficiency and reduced friction.

Seals system: Features a grease retaining inner seal with multi-stage labyrinth design, along with a retention cap, to prevent dust and debris from entering the bearing.

Lubrication: Uses lithium soap type grease with rust inhibitors, to ensure smooth and reliable operation.

Welding technology: Utilizes mixed gas shielded arc welding for strong and consistent welds.

Painting technology: Offers a variety of painting options, including ordinary painting, hot galvanized painting, electric static spraying painting, and baked painting, to suit the specific needs of each application.
