LIGHTWEIGHT IDLERS LightWeight Dead Shaft luminum Idlers When you need an idler lighter than the standard aluminum models, but stronger than an UltraLight, take a closer look at Webex LightWeight

Break-away torque is less and roll inertia is lowered. ll this gives you a high-performance roll ideal for lowtension applications.

While load and length limitations are comparable, increased roll deflection requires a closer review of your maximum speed to avoid operating near critical speed.

Both are dead shaft designs using the same steel shafts and low-friction bearings. Both are precision balanced for maximum performance over a wide range of speeds.

1 LIGHTWEIGHT IDLERS LightWeight Dead Shaft luminum Idlers When you need an idler lighter than the standard aluminum models, but stronger than an UltraLight, take a closer look at Webex LightWeight luminum Idlers. Webex LightWeight luminum Idlers offer you the same precision construction and design detail as our standard aluminum idlers but with half the wall thickness and half the roll weight. Break-away torque is less and roll inertia is lowered. ll this gives you a high-performance roll ideal for lowtension applications. LightWeight luminum Idlers employ the same steel shafts and mount configurations as our standard aluminum idlers. While load and length limitations are comparable, increased roll deflection requires a closer review of your maximum speed to avoid operating near critical speed. lan Fritz Wyngaard Machinist In all other ways, Webex LightWeights are directly comparable to our standard aluminum idlers. Both are dead shaft designs using the same steel shafts and low-friction bearings. Both are precision balanced for maximum performance over a wide range of speeds. nd both are available as Webex standards offering you consistent, repeat performance roll to roll and order to order.
