Megaroller has over 30 years of experience in the conveyor industry. Our Rollers are designed to last longer; therefore reducing cost of ownership. They are more belt friendly; thus limiting the risk of secondary belt damage. Globally they have become renowned for their energy efficiency, reliability and quieter operation giving our customers better results from their conveyor systems. User Friendly, Energy Efficient and Longer Lasting is why more and more customers choose our products to keep their goods rolling for longer for less. Contact us to experience the difference and see why our products keep yours rolling.

Our leading products

Innovations & Applications Standard Megahybrid Rollers are made from mild steel conveyor tubing for maximum strength. Megaroller’s patented Sealing Arrangement allows these rollers to be used in extreme temperatures and harsh weather conditions.

Anti-Run-Back Our Anti- Run-Back Technology can be applied to incline belts to prevent the belt from running back in the event of a “belt-snap”. Rollers are fitted with Megaroller’s patented Sealing Arrangement as well as a roller brake system which ensures that the roller can only run in one direction.

Anti-Static Our innovative Anti-Static Technology, comprising of a copper strip inside the roller that connects the outer shell to the shaft, can be applied to the Megaroller Hybrid Rollers. Static electricity is earthed inside the roller to mitigate the risk of an open spark in methane-rich underground mines, which presents a major fire hazard in cole and gold mines.

HDPE Rollers

Hybrid Rollers

Impact Rollers

Steering Frames

Megaroller HDPE Rollers are an innovation in reinforced high-density polyethylene (HDPE) conveyor rollers.

Megaroller Hybrid Rollers are unique combination steel / high-density polyethylene (HDPE) conveyor rollers.

Megaroller’s Impact and Rubber Disc Return Rollers absorb the impact of large loads of ore falling onto conveyor belts to prevent damage.

Megaroller’s unique Multisteer conveyor belt steering frames are the key to effective conveyor belt management.

CONTACT US: www.megarollerindustries.com | info@megaroller.co.za | +27(0)12 250 2365

Anti-Seize The roller utilizes Megaroller’s innovative AntiSeize Technology, comprising a side flinger which remains static while the roller is running. This protects the sealing arrangement against any spillage that could get lodged between the shaft and the roller’s side face. It is specifically suggested for dusty environments, like cement factories and crusher plants.
