A sampling of Fairlane Products line of bearing mount (top) and stud mount rollers. Fairlane Products bearing and stud mount rollers
Fairlane Products, Inc. offers a complete line of both bearing mount and stud mount rollers. Rollers are designed to protect the delicate, the fragile, and the unusual from conveyors, guides and support to machines and assembly operations. Both the bearing and stud mount versions come in a variety of configurations: solid, finned and DuraSoft®, and in 20 to 95 durometers.
The solid bearing mount, with diameters from 1.5 to 6 inches and widths from 1 to 2 inches comes in a smooth neoprene, nitrile or urethane surface that is permanently bonded to a steel insert with the bearings held into place with snap rings. Neoprene rollers are chemical resistant and non-marring. They are heavy-duty and ideal for harsh manufacturing environments. Nitrile rollers are also chemical resistant and non-marring. They are suitable for applications where part protection and appearance are critical. Urethane rollers are more rugged and wear-resistant than conventional rollers.
The finned version, with diameters of 2 to 4 inches and widths from 1 to 2-inch also comes in neoprene, nitrile, or urethane. There are grooves on the surface and are permanently bonded to a steel insert with the bearings held into place with snap rings.
The proprietary DuraSoft®, in diameters of 2.5 to 4 inches and widths from 1 to 2-inch has “teardrop” holes that allow the roller to flex for firm yet non-marring contact. They work in conveyance, fixturing, assembly, and materials handling. The rollers have a smooth surface and like the solid and finned versions are permanently bonded to a steel insert with the bearings held into place with snap rings. All solid-bearing mount rollers also come in precision bearing and precision sealed bearing varieties with similar diameters and widths.
The stud mount rollers are rollers with bearings and mounting hardware is assembled with the hub in place. The hub extends from one side to the other. They also come in smooth neoprene, nitrile or urethane surfaces that are permanently bonded to a steel insert and are available in solid, finned, and DuraSoft®, versions. Their diameter and width are similar to the bearing mount rollers, but the thread hardware varies from 5/16-18 x 1.75 to 1/2-13 x 2.275. All stud mount rollers also come in precision and sealed bearing varieties.
In addition to bearing mount and stud mount rollers, Fairlane Products also has a full line of round, square, and rectangular bumpers available. The company also designs and manufactures a wide range of work holding and positioning components, rollers, replaceable grippers, rest pads, and Swivots® — modular components for holding and positioning of irregular contour surfaces, quick releases ball lock pins, work holding grippers, TG GripSerts and GP-series gripper pads.
