As Good as New Roller Repair
We offer a service for the ‘as new’ repair and recovering of rollers for a range of applications and industries, from print to packaging and converting, steel production to PCB manufacture.
Providing a high-quality, reliable service, whether you need a worn roller re-covered or a new spindle manufactured. Our experienced team can advise you on the best solution for your requirements and deliver a fast turnaround. It is why customers who switch to us return time and again.
Precision Machined
Why spend money on new replacement rollers when your existing worn or damaged rollers can be refurbished to an ‘as-new’ condition at a fraction of the OEM price?
Whether your rollers are manufactured from nitrile, silicone or EPDM, and whether they are applied to steel, aluminium, carbon fibre or other core materials, we can help.
Every roller is precision-machined to your detailed drawings or reproduced using an existing roller as a pattern.
We can also provide straightforward assembly services, including fitting bearings, gears and other shaft components.

Frequently Questions
Roller recovering is the process of removing the worn rubber or polyurethane from an existing roller core and applying a new covering, restoring it to like-new condition.
In many cases, yes. Recovering can save 30–70% compared to manufacturing a completely new roller, depending on the condition of the core.
Most rubber and polyurethane covered rollers can be recovered, provided the core is structurally sound.
We inspect the core, journals, bearing seats and shaft for wear or damage before recommending recovery or replacement.
We can often repair worn journals, damaged shafts, keyways and bearing seats before recovering the roller. If the damage is too extensive, we can manufacture a new core.
Yes. We can match the original hardness or recommend an alternative to improve performance.
Absolutely. We can recommend different compounds, hardnesses or surface finishes to increase wear life, grip or chemical resistance.
Typical lead times depend on the roller size and required repairs, but we can often offer expedited services for urgent breakdowns.
Common options include:
Nitrile
EPDM
Silicone
Neoprene
Polyurethane
Hypalon
Yes. When properly recovered and precision ground, recovered rollers will perform as well as and sometimes even better than the original.
