Impact Idlers Key Specifications

Roller Diameter

108mm, 127mm, and 152mm rubber-ring impact rollers designed to absorb drop impact from heavy ferrous materials.

Rubber Ring Hardness

55-65 Shore A natural rubber rings with 15-20mm thickness for superior shock absorption at ore transfer chutes.

Trough Angle

20, 30, and 35 degree trough angles for stable material centering during high-impact loading of iron ore and sinter.

Bearing Type

6305 and 6306 heavy-duty bearings with high-temperature lithium grease rated for continuous operation near furnace areas.

Shell Construction

Heavy-gauge ERW steel tubes with press-fitted rubber rings spaced at optimized intervals for maximum energy absorption.

Impact Rating

Rated for drop heights up to 3 meters with material lump sizes exceeding 300mm typical in steel plant crushing circuits.

Industrial Applications

Blast Furnace Feed Points
Absorbing impact from iron ore and coke lumps discharged onto conveyors feeding blast furnace skip hoists and charging systems.
Crusher Discharge Conveyors
Protecting belt and idler frames at secondary crusher outlets where large sinter and ore fragments create extreme point loads.
DRI Plant Transfer Stations
Cushioning impact at sponge iron discharge points from rotary kilns where hot DRI pellets drop onto collection conveyors.
