B&D Rollers has been offering steel and rubber industrial rollers and reconditioning services for various industries since 1987. We can provide custom solutions, including designing a product for a specific application or determining the correct compound for a roller. The rollers are perfect for a variety of applications, including woodworking, agriculture, food service, conveyor and packaging, and converting.
We use the finest flexible elastomer compounds in our manufacturing process and can remove old rubber, resurface, and refurbish rollers with new rubber for general applications. We pride ourselves on quality, service, and timely production. Rush orders are accommodated depending on quantity and materials of the roller production.
Choosing the right materials for your rollers, including the core and any coatings or coverings, can be challenging. The material must be durable, able to withstand harsh environments and high loads, and provide the necessary friction for the roller to function effectively
At B&D Rollers, we identify the best materials that are robust, compatible with their environment, and able to perform. Our team works closely with customers to understand their unique needs and requirements to identify the most appropriate materials for their applications.
Industrial rollers require precise manufacturing to ensure they function correctly and don’t cause any damage or wear to the products they come in contact with. Achieving the necessary level of precision requires specialized machinery and expertise. With our newly added CNC machine, our capabilities far outreach the competition.
To address the challenge of precision manufacturing, we use state-of-the-art machinery and employ a team of skilled technicians with years of experience in the industry. Our facility is designed to handle custom orders, and we are capable of producing rollers to a wide variety of specifications. Our quality control team conducts regular checks and inspections throughout the production process to ensure that each roller meets the required standards for quality, performance, and durability. Our new CNC will be able to do what a lot of other roller companies can’t! Below are just some of the groove patterns available. Please call if you have a special groove pattern that is not shown.
It is crucial to maintain the required standards for quality, performance, and durability for each roller. To ensure consistent quality across all rollers, regular quality control checks, testing, and inspections are essential.
We have implemented a rigorous quality control process that includes testing and inspection of each roller, and use only the finest flexible elastomer compounds in our manufacturing process at no additional cost to our customers. We pride ourselves on our commitment to quality, service, and timely production, with rush orders accommodated depending on quantity and materials of the roller production.
Our commitment to quality, custom solutions, use of optimal materials, precision manufacturing, and timely production with rush order accommodations are the reasons you need to choose B&D Rollers.
We take an old worn-out roller and manufacture new or repair your existing roll. With our CNC capabilities, welding, rubber applications, grooving and balancing, we’ll repair your roller to its original state.
There’s nothing new for us when it comes to R&D and Prototyping. With 36+ years of experience in the roller industry, there’s been a lot through our doors. We’ve had R&D projects that have led to full lines in manufacturing and prototypes we’ve put into production. Give us a call for your next great idea!
With the addition of the CNC lathe, nothing is out of reach for B&D Rollers. High-volume production runs, prototyping, and special projects are the things we do best. Using the best steel from tubing, solid round, and with capabilities of heat treating, grinding, and fabricating, we’re the go-to for all your roller needs!
Industrial rollers are used in manufacturing and material handling applications to guide, transport, press, coat, laminate, and process materials. They are commonly found in conveyor systems, packaging, woodworking, food processing, printing, textile, steel, plastic, and converting industries.
The right industrial roller depends on several factors, including the application, operating environment, load capacity, surface material, roller covering, diameter, and speed requirements. Choosing the correct roller helps improve production efficiency, reduce maintenance, and extend equipment life.
Custom industrial rollers are used across a wide range of industries, including conveyor and packaging, food processing, agriculture, woodworking, printing, textile manufacturing, steel processing, glass manufacturing, plastic and film production, and paper and converting industries. They are designed to improve material handling, enhance production efficiency, and meet the specific performance requirements of each application.
Rubber rollers provide better grip, cushioning, and material handling, making them ideal for printing, packaging, and converting applications. Steel rollers are designed for heavy-duty operations requiring high strength, durability, and wear resistance.
Yes. Many industrial rollers can be reconditioned by removing worn coverings, repairing the core if needed, applying new rubber or specialized coatings, and precision grinding to restore performance. Roller reconditioning is often a cost-effective alternative to purchasing new rollers.
Industrial roller reconditioning helps reduce replacement costs, minimizes production downtime, extends equipment life, improves roller performance, and supports sustainable manufacturing by reusing existing roller cores.
Industrial rollers are manufactured using materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, polyurethane, nitrile rubber, silicone, EPDM, neoprene, and other elastomer compounds. The material is selected based on the application’s operating conditions and performance requirements.
The lifespan of an industrial roller depends on operating conditions, load, maintenance, material type, and application. Regular inspections, preventive maintenance, and timely reconditioning can significantly increase service life.
Yes. Custom industrial rollers can be manufactured to meet specific diameter, length, shaft configuration, groove pattern, covering material, hardness, and application requirements for a wide range of industries.
When selecting an industrial roller manufacturer, consider experience, custom engineering capabilities, material expertise, precision machining, quality control, turnaround time, and the ability to provide repair and reconditioning services.
Precision manufacturing ensures rollers maintain proper balance, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish. This improves product quality, reduces vibration, minimizes equipment wear, and supports reliable long-term performance.
Industrial rollers should be inspected regularly for wear, surface damage, bearing issues, imbalance, and coating deterioration. Routine inspections help prevent unexpected downtime and maintain efficient production.
