Thrust rollers, sometimes also called thrust idlers, are positioned on the uphill and downhill edges of the tire (riding ring), preventing the drum from drifting too far one way.
FEECO offers high-quality replacement thrust rollers in a variety of materials, including:
- 1020 CD
- 1020 HR
- A572
- 1045 HR
- A36
- A283
- 4140
Sizes ranging from 7-¾” to 48” diameters are available.
INDICATIONS THAT A THRUST ROLLER MAY NEED REPLACEMENT
Thrust roller damage is apparent if the roller has become too small, or the shaft is broken. Similarly, rollers may also exhibit a flat spot, where the drum has been allowed to ride for an extended period of time.
