Conveyor Component Selection — Quick Reference
Conveyor components = STEEL CONVEYOR ROLLERS for GRAVITY + LIVE roller material handling systems. AIMS supplies rollers + sprockets + chain + belt + accessories for AU warehouses + distribution + production lines.
| Conveyor Component | Best For |
|---|---|
| Gravity Roller (Plain Bearing) | Manual material movement — slope-fed |
| Live Roller (Bearing + Drive) | Powered conveyor — sustained throughput |
| Sprocketed Roller | Chain-driven live roller |
| Idler Roller / Pulley | Belt + roller support — see idler pulleys |
| Conveyor Belt | Belt-type conveyor |
| Conveyor Chain (BS / ASA) | Roller chain conveyor — see chain + sprockets |
| Wheels + Castors | Skate wheel sections + see castors |
| Frame + Stand | Conveyor structure |
| Drive Motor + Gearbox | Live conveyor powerplant |
Critical: Match roller diameter + spacing + capacity to load + throughput. Bearing type — sealed for dusty + greaseable for heavy. Brand: EasyRoll. Companion: material handling, chain + sprockets, idler pulleys.
Conveyor Components: Steel Conveyor Rollers for Gravity and Live Roller Material Handling Systems
Conveyor rollers are the core wear component of any gravity roller or live roller conveyor system — regular replacement of worn or damaged rollers maintains conveyor efficiency and prevents load damage. AIMS Industrial stocks Easyroll steel conveyor rollers in lengths (widths) for roller conveyor maintenance and new system construction in warehouse, manufacturing, and distribution environments.
The AIMS Conveyor Components Range
Our conveyor components range is built around Easyroll.
- Easyroll Steel Conveyor Rollers: Easyroll steel conveyor rollers for gravity roller conveyors provide the rolling surface that allows loads to move under gravity or powered by upstream rollers in a live roller system. Available in multiple tube diameters and face lengths to match standard conveyor frame widths and load requirements.
- Roller Selection by Length: Roller face length must match the internal width of the conveyor frame minus the appropriate bearing housing clearance. Measure the frame internal width and subtract the bearing housing projection from each end to confirm required face length.
- Gravity vs Powered Conveyor: Gravity roller conveyors rely on a slight decline or manual push to move loads — cost-effective for receiving, packing, and dispatch areas. Live (powered) roller conveyors use driven rollers for horizontal or inclined product movement without manual handling effort.
- Castor Compatibility: For manual trolleys and wheeled equipment that runs on or alongside conveyor systems, see our castors and wheels ranges for matching handling equipment.
- Conveyor Stands & Frames: AIMS industrial also supplies conveyor stands and frames, allowing you to create your own conveyor depending upon the configuration of your facility. Alternatively, we can supply expanding conveyor skates which extend up to 3.8m and allow for great operational flexibility.
Conveyor Maintenance
- Replace Rollers Before They Seize: A seized conveyor roller creates a stationary wear point that rapidly marks, gouges, or stops product — particularly polished, wrapped, or fragile goods. Inspect rollers regularly for rotation resistance, flat spots, and bearing noise.
- Load Rating: Each roller has a maximum load rating based on tube wall thickness, diameter, and bearing rating. For heavy-duty pallet conveying, always confirm the roller's load rating per metre of conveyor span against the actual pallet weight.
- Expert Support: Need to specify rollers for a new conveyor or match replacement rollers to existing frame dimensions? Contact our team or request a quote with your frame width and load requirements.
- Australian Business, Local Supply: As a proudly Australian business since 1988, we stock locally and work with trusted local Australian manufacturers and distributors to ensure fast, reliable supply.
