Built for Demanding Material Handling Applications
Rite Idler’s conveyor rolls are purpose-built for high-performance material handling across the most demanding industries—including mining, self-unloading ships, aggregate processing and forestry operations. Featuring CEMA-rated durability, shaft-end technology and reliable local support; our products are designed to keep your conveyors running with maximum uptime and minimal maintenance.
Custom Shaft-End Fit for Any Conveyor Frame
Our unique shaft design allows custom-machining to fit virtually any conveyor frame — no matter the brand, frame dimensions, or slot size. With just a few key measurements, Rite Idler delivers Replacement Conveyor Rolls that install directly into your existing system—no modifications required. Backed by Canadian manufacturing and tested in the toughest conditions, our idlers are built to last.
Proven Conveyor Performance
You Can Trust
At Rite Idler, we prioritize bearing protection and long-term reliability in every design. Our advanced sealing system features seven distinct components—four seals between the bearing and the roll end, and three between the bearing and the roll’s interior—making it one of the most robust systems in the industry. Unlike “sealed-for-life” bearings that contain minimal grease and offer limited protection, we use open-faced ball bearings—pressure-injected with high-quality grease to completely fill the cavity. This approach delivers up to 10–15 times the lubrication volume, superior contamination resistance and dramatically extended service life—all backed by precision Canadian manufacturing.
Why Choose Rite Idler's Products?
Threaded
Shaft Ends
All our shaft ends are machined in-house and threaded into our rolls to allow us to fit seamlessly into virtually any conveyor frame, regardless of manufacturer.
Superior Multi-Seal
Protection System
Our unique seven-component sealing system features three interlocking nylon inner seals to protect from internal roll contamination.
Grease-Filled
Bearing Assembly
Our bearing assemblies are pressure injected with high-quality grease, filling the cavity to provide superior level contamination protection greatly extending operational life and reducing maintenance.
Precision Machined
Housing
We precision machine the bearing pocket and rim of our stamped endcaps to provide an interference fit with the bearing and concentric alignment with the shaft.
Composite
Shaft Design
All shafts have precision machined bearing surfaces to ensure an interference fit. Rolls above 13” utilize a hollow composite shaft design, offering superior strength, less shaft deflection and roll weight.
Extensive
Coating Options
Rollers are available with rubber, urethane, or ceramic coatings and frames can be galvanized or coated with protection tailored to resist abrasion, corrosion, and environmental wear.
Sturdy Frames
All frame components are designed for strength, rigidity and prevention of material entrapment.
Specialty Idler Designs
Purpose-built designs to solve conveying issues. Retractable Idlers, removable end brackets, Inverted “V”, Garlands, 3-Roll returns and much more.
Customize for Your Needs
We work with you to design conveyor idlers that solve your system’s unique challenges.
