Ball bearing rollers by xiros® can move heavy & fragile loads with minimum effort

Able to handle loads of up to 225 lbs (1,000 N), igus® ball bearing rollers, also known as ball transfer units, can move heavy as well as fragile loads conveniently, safely and in almost every direction. High quality main and support balls ensure rounder surfaces for smooth and consistent rolling.  Designed for use in materials handling ball tables and glass processing, their many different designs offer a wide variety of cost-effective applications. Available as units made entirely of maintenance-free and dry-running plastic materials, they also come with stainless steel conveyor balls.

Five times higher load capacity possible

Designed for use in materials handling ball tables and glass processing, their many different designs offer a wide variety of cost-effective applications. Compared to ball tables made of metal, igus® maintenance-free and self-lubricating ball transfer units help save money, time and effort.  They can be installed for horizontal, vertical and overhead movements.  A newly designed housing interior offers a five times higher load capacity.
 
Made of abrasion resistant xiros®, the polymer is durable and nonconductive. For applications that require non-magnetic ball transfer units, glass balls are available to replace the stainless-steel balls.
