Vail custom-formulated roll covers meet your industry’s toughest applications.
For decades the most demanding industries have come to us. They run Vail roll covers through animal oils, fats and greases. Expect them to resist abrasion in coil coating. Count on them for a clean release in film bag applications. They specify that our roll covers must withstand searing temperatures, caustic chemicals and the slashing of glass shards and jagged metal. Our custom-formulated roll covers do just that by outperforming and out lasting the roll covers you currently use.
We base the formulation on our analysis of your process, then use natural rubber, silicone, Viton, Neoprene, nitrile, EPDM and SBR or premium polyurethanes made from ester-based, ether-based, MDI and TDI materials. For your liquid processing applications we are your source for Masroll® micro-fiber vacuum suction rolls.
