RUBBERHOG Roll Grinding wheels quickly and efficiently grind many types of rubber and polyurethane-covered rollers. Applications include printing rollers, rollers for the steel and aluminum industries, for plastic film manufacturing and package converting, for textile manufacturing, and for the furniture industry. Roller grinding is done both in manufacturing of new roller coverings and for in-plant maintenance of rollers.
Peeler tools are also available to remove old rubber from roller cores when preparing them for new rubber.
Rubberhog Roll Grinding Wheels are your best solution for grinding rubber and other elastomer materials. Applications include: Rubber & Polyurethane Roller Coverings, Lathe-Cut Seals, Specialty Belt Products, Foam Rubber Products.
Rubberhog wheels perform better than simple abrasive wheels or belts because of their unique construction. Rubberhog wheels feature an accurate steel form coated with a layer of very sharp, conical “teeth” made of extremely hard materials.
Rubberhog teeth are arranged to allow fast penetration into the work and unrestricted flow of cuttings away from the wheel. This provides a free-cutting action similar to a milling device, drastically reducing the time required to grind most parts.
Rubberhog wheels can provide a service life as much as hundreds of times that of conventional abrasives. Rubberhog wheels are usually “pre-dressed,” to maintain rapid material removal while producing a good surface finish on the workpiece.
Oliver Corporation produces a very wide variety of custom tools for machining and grinding of non-metallic materials. These range from tiny burr or router-type tools through larger routers and form wheels up to large drum-type wheels and cylindrical grinder wheels of up to 24"/600mm in diameter. Complete machine-shop facilities combined with extensive equipment for applying the wheel coatings provides for fast turn-around and "in-house" quality control.
Oliver Corporation offers a number of helpful accessories to supplement the Rubberhog line. Our peeler tools and replacement inserts are used to quickly strip old rubber from cores. We also offer Rubberhog dressing kits for critical-finish applications, as well as extra wheel holders for high-speed grinders.
