Silicone Rubber Rollers

Learn more about our rollers, benefits and applications

Market-Leading Roller Range

United Silicone provides silicone rubber rollers with a market-leading silicone-to-metal bond. We also lead the market in size range with diameters up to 20 inches and face lengths up to 110 inches.

We provide complete rollers (core plus coverings) along with roller re-coats to create rollers that work on our systems as well as competitor systems.

Benefits Market-Leading Efficiency, Adhesion, Repeatability and Size Range
Market-Leading Efficiency Re-Coatable (Reusable) rollers makes it possible to retain and reuse machined metal cores resulting in significant cost and waste savings.
Market-Leading Adhesion Proprietary system for chemically bonding silicone to metal cores provides market-leading adhesion without the need for messy adhesives
Superior Repeatability Each roller is surface ground, ensuring precise TIR and OD measurements as well as a smooth, surface finish.
Seamless Finish Manufacturing process eliminates the appearance of a ‘meeting point’ common in competitive production processes resulting in blemish-free contact and heat transfer for your applications.
Fast Turnaround Often in 7-10 days if not faster
Re-Coatable (Reusable) Silicone Rollers

 

CER is proud to introduce re-coatable (re-useable) silicone rollers.

When a silicone roller becomes worn down, customers can simply ship these rollers to CER. We will use our proprietary silicone-to-metal bonding process to re-coat the machined metal core with fresh, new silicone. Customers only pay for the cost of shipping and the new silicone coating

Re-Coatable Rollers = Significant Cost & Waste Savings

Being able to reuse the machined metal cores of rollers (the most costly part of a roller) significantly reduces waste. Not only is their less landfill- but new energy is not needed to produce new machined metal cores.

Re-coatable silicone rollers generate significant cost savings as the machined metal core of the silicone rubber roller can be reused. The machined metal is the costliest part of a silicone roller. Being able to reuse the metal roller core generates cost savings.

For smaller rollers, cost savings may be close to 50%. For larger rollers, cost savings can be as high as 250%!

Re-coatable silicone rubber rollers reduce waste AND expense.

APPLICATIONS

The many benefits of silicone rubber rollers make them well-suited for a wide variety of applications. Silicone conforms readily to surface variations ensuring smooth seal application without air entrapment. Our silicone rollers are used for sealing and film feeding in rigid and flexible packaging applications.
