The WEBEX Steel Live Shaft Idler Rolls by Maxcess is engineered for the heaviest demands of web handling—combining high-load capacity, thermal durability, and contamination resistance in one robust solution. Constructed from 1026 carbon steel tubing with 1018 carbon steel journals, this steel live shaft idler performs reliably under extreme conditions like solvent-rich ovens, nip stations, or dusty converting lines.

Consistent Web Tension & Reduced Vibration

Available in nominal diameters of 3", 4", 5", and 6" with face lengths up to 120", this steel live shaft roll offers strength where it matters most. Bearings are mounted externally to avoid contamination and extend life, making it a trusted choice in harsh, high-temperature environments. Each heavy-duty idler roller is precision-machined to strict tolerances and can be customized with coatings and surface modifications for specific application needs.

Long-Lasting Operation

Withstand extreme temperatures, heavy nip pressure, and chemical exposure—ideal for lines where dead shaft rollers break down.

Optimized Shaft Configuration

Journals are made from 1018 carbon steel and support self-aligning pillow block or flange bearings for added load support and alignment flexibility.
