Products and services
- Aluminum Idler Rollers Standard idler rollers made from thick-wall T6 aluminum tube, one of the most popular rolls manufactured by Epoch, suitable for a wide range of web converting and material handling applications.
- Lightweight Aluminum Idler Rollers Idler rollers made from 1/4 inch wall 6061-T6 aluminum tube, offering less weight and less rolling inertia than standard aluminum idlers, for applications requiring reduced inertia.
- Carbon Fiber Idler Rollers Composite idler rollers made using 1/8 inch wall (3/16 inch in larger sizes) carbon fiber/epoxy matrix composite tubing, delivering nearly double the stiffness-to-weight ratio of aluminum for high-performance web handling.
- Steel Idler Rollers Idler rollers made from DOM steel tubing, well suited for high to medium loading applications due to high strength and performance.
- Stainless Steel Idler Rollers Idler rollers made from stainless steel for use in corrosive environments and high moisture applications; stainless steel provides greater abrasion resistance than mild steel for environments with abrasive elements.
