Gravity Roller Conveyors are ideal for applications that require an economical, non-powered means for conveying material. This heavy-duty conveyor is used for handling pallets, dunnage racks, containers, structural steel, and drums. Conveyor Curves are used to provide smooth product flow through turns. Curves will convey products with minimum degree of pitch based on weight and size. Curve sections can easily incorporate Straights and Spurs.
BETWEEN FRAMES: 13″ – 51″
CURVE DEGREE: 30°, 45°, 90°
ROLLERS: 2.625″ dia. x 7ga. mild steel tube with 11/16″ hex axle, spring retained, with semi-precision, oiled bearings. Standard roller surface is carbon steel. Bearing options include combinations of precision, semi-precision and non-precision construction with light oil or grease packed lubrication. Optional cotter pin retained axle. 750 lb. roller capacity.
ROLLER TUBE & COVER OPTIONS:
- Standard– Bare Carbon Steel, Pickled & Oiled
- Orange Polyurethane, 1/8” Thick (Carbon steel tube)
NOTE: Axle is carbon steel unless specified otherwise.
FRAME CONSTRUCTION: Standard FC96 set high 4″ x 1-1/2″ x 8ga formed steel channel with bolted 2″ x 8ga galvanized angle crossties. Optional frames include FC19 channel 5″ & 4″ x 1-1/2″ x 8ga set high and low or FC39 channel 5” x 1-1/2” x 8ga set low.
FRAME CONNECTION / COUPLINGS: Bolted butt couplers standard on both ends of channel.
CONVEYOR COLOR: Powder coated blue (RAL 5017). Click HERE to see other standard color options. Custom colors also available.
Options & Accessories:
- End Stops
- Guardrail
- Mechanical Roller Brakes / Speed Control
- Pneumatic Pop-Up Stops & Roller Brakes
- Walkover Plates
- Drip Pans
- Bottom Covers
- Fork Truck Barriers
Floor Supports:
- Floor supports are not included unless specified. Supports can be added to achieve a variety of heights (Top of Roller).
- Supports can be added with different beginning and ending elevations to achieve gravity flow.
- Floor supports can be provided on 5′ or 10′ nominal centers. It is recommended that conveyors wider than 32″ have supports on 5′ centers. It is also recommended that conveyors with height elevations above 35″ use knee braces (model KB17 or KB18).

Note: Capacities listed are an estimate only to be used as a general guideline.
Capacities are based on evenly distributed loads. There are several variables that factor into determining capacity, including how the product is loaded.
When a conveyor is on floor supports, the conveyor frame rails are typically the limiting factor when determining weight capacity. In other words, if a conveyor frame is set directly on the floor, it can handle much more weight than a conveyor on supports.
