Anodized Roller Coatings for Durability & Abrasion Resistance
Anodized roller coatings by Componex provide a cost-effective way to extend the life of your idlers. By forming a hard aluminum oxide surface, these coatings protect against scratching, wear, and abrasive materials that can shorten roller service life.
These coatings are available in both Type II and Type III hard coats, with the option to add black dye and PTFE impregnation, further enhancing durability, reducing friction, and optimizing roller performance.
Type II Anodize
Type II Anodize is a cost-effective upgrade from bare aluminum, offering good corrosion resistance and a smoother surface.
Common Applications for Type II Anodize
- Printing
- Food Packaging
- Visual Identification (Color)
Type III Anodize
Type III Hard Coat Anodize delivers maximum wear resistance, higher heat tolerance, and longer life in demanding web handling environments.
Componex's standard offering is Type III Black Hard Coat. Being an extruded tube, WINertia rolls with a natural hard coat will leave the die line faintly visible through the hard coat. By dying the anodized black, it gives the roller a dark, uniform color. The visual die lines are only cosmetic and have no effect on performance.
Common Applications for Type III Anodize
- White Inks containing Titanium dioxide
- Printing
- Laminating
- Ovens
- Abrasives webs
Type III Hard Coat with Superfinishing
Type III Hard Coat with Superfinishing offers the same wear resistance with a finish of 2-6 Ra. Use in slow-speed applications where warm webs are prone to imprinting.
Common Applications for Type III Hard Coat with Superfinishing
- Slow-running webs
- Cast Film Lines
- Ovens
