Model Nomenclature

Ordering idlers is easy with Webex's simple model nomenclature. For example: an order for a LW-400-125x60" refers to a LightWeight Dead Shaft Aluminum Idler, with 4.00" nominal diameter, bearings to fit a 1.25" diameter shaft, and a 60" roll face length.

When ordering Shafts, state steel or stainless, the diameter and the length. Add D&T for Drilled and Tapped, F&C for Faced and Chamfered.

For example:
Stainless Steel Shaft - 1.5 DIA x 60" D&T

Model nomenclature is clearly identified with each product within this online catalog.

Custom Idler Coverings and Modifications

Webex standard idlers can be precision machined to meet a variety of web handling needs such as de-wrinkling, air removal, or embossing. Coating and coverings can also be added to improve roll performance in corrosive environments or with abrasive webs.

See Custom Finishes if your process or application requires more than the standard specifications presented in any of the idler sections that follow.

Be Sure to Specify: Bearing shields (if needed) If elevated temperatures or other unusual operating conditions exist Bearing type (if different from our standard low-friction bearings) Shafts Mounts Custom coverings or modifications Coating or covering by others
