When you can't recover an existing roll — or you're building out a new line — we build new roll cores from scratch. Shafts, end bells, through shafts. Carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. Engineered to match your dimensional requirements, your bearing fit, your line specs. Then we cover it. One vendor, one shop, one accountability.
Send us a drawing or a sample. Or describe the application and let our team engineer the core for you. Bearing fit, journal length, end bell geometry, balance considerations — we engineer the whole core to match your line.
Carbon steel for general industrial duty. Stainless steel for corrosive or food-grade environments. Aluminum for weight-sensitive applications. We specify the material with the same care we specify the cover compound.
Solid shafts for shaft-end rolls. End bells for cantilevered or supported designs. Through shafts for high-load drum-style rolls. Full machining, welding, and fabrication done in-house at our Memphis facility.
The advantage of new builds at Arthur Rubber: the same shop that builds the core covers it, grinds it, balances it, and documents it. One vendor accountability. No coordinating between a core fabricator and a separate covering shop.
When we build the core, we build it for the cover that's going on it. Journal tolerances, runout, balance — engineered as a system, not as separate steps.
Send us the drawing, the sample, or the application description.
Our team engineers the core: material, dimensions, bearing fit, balance profile.
Machined, welded, and assembled in our Memphis shop.
Cover applied, ground, balanced, documented. One vendor, complete package.
Tell us about your new core builds requirements. We'll respond within one business day with a specific recommendation — not a generic pitch.
