Planetary Barrel

The planetary barrel carries the raceways the rollers run against. Those surfaces have to be true — an out-of-round raceway loads the rollers unevenly and shortens the life of the whole set.

Precision bored and honed, with bimetallic lining available for filled formulations.

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

How do you check the raceways?

Roundness and geometry are measured at several stations and recorded; the sheet ships with the barrel.

Lined or unlined?

Unlined for virgin PVC; bimetallic lining for filled formulations.

Can you reline a worn barrel?

If the body is sound, yes. We measure first and will say if replacement makes more sense.
