Air Tube for Suction Roll
Rubber Air Tube for Suction Roll
The rubber air tube is primarily utilized in vacuum suction rolls to increase pressure, ensuring a superior sealing effect. These tubes are typically installed and operated in conjunction with high-performance sealing strips.
Position in Suction Roll
Suction rolls are critical path elements in paper machine operations. Improper operation can significantly impact power consumption and decrease the operating interval between changes. In modern designs, side and silencer seals rest upon air tubes housed in U-shaped holders. The exact configuration depends on the roll manufacturer and specific application position.
Sealing Strip Importance
The pressure applied by the sealing strip is determined by the supply pressure of the pneumatic tube set within the sealing groove. The integrity of the vacuum roller sealing air tube is vital for the continuous and efficient operation of the equipment.
Premium Rubber Air Tube Solutions
We offer suction roll air loading tubes manufactured from high-grade materials including blue Vincon or Neoprene. These are available in various profiles, such as round and H-shapes, complemented by 316 stainless steel fittings.
● Standard metric and U.S. diameters in stock.
