Lorbrand conveyor idlers and conveyor rollers are designed to operate in the most extreme of environments, each conveyor idler set and or conveyor roller is supported by the industries lowest breakaway mass, close tolerances, duty matched shafts, effective seals and premium bearings.
Due to the energy efficiency and low noise of our idlers, Lorbrand idlers are typically the idler of choice for long overland and large in-plant conveyor systems.
All conveyor idlers are available as standard with galvanised, painted finishes or stainless steel.
