Description

Rite Idler’s Catenary Troughing Idlers are used in suspended conveyor systems where the idlers hang freely between two fixed points. This setup provides a self-adjusting, vibration-dampening trough to help manage load distribution and accommodate movement in portable or long-span conveyors.

These idlers maintain a consistent belt profile while reducing stress and eliminating rigid frame requirements.

Key Features:

  • Freely suspended support for flexible trough formation

  • Available in 2-roll, 3-roll, and 5-roll styles

  • Deep-groove ball bearings with full-cavity grease injection
  • 7-component sealing system offers maximum contamination protection

  • Ideal for portable, suspended, or overland conveyors

  • Roll coating options: rubber, urethane, ceramic

Catenary Troughing Idlers are an excellent choice when flexibility, weight savings, and shock absorption are priorities. Rite Idler’s proven build quality ensures these suspended systems perform reliably in dynamic environments.
