Impact Rollers are heavy-duty conveyor rollers designed to absorb impact when bulk material is loaded onto a conveyor belt. They are mainly installed beneath loading and transfer points. These areas experience high shock loads when material falls onto the belt.
In addition, impact rollers help reduce the force transferred to the conveyor belt, idlers, and conveyor structure. As a result, they help protect the belt and support reliable conveyor operation.
Unlike standard carrying rollers, impact rollers typically use rubber discs or impact rings around a steel roller. These flexible components deform under load and help absorb impact energy before it reaches the conveyor structure.
Therefore, impact rollers are particularly useful at high-impact loading points. For example, they are commonly used in mining, quarrying, aggregate handling, cement plants, steel plants, ports, power plants, and other bulk material handling systems.
Moreover, selecting the correct impact roller size and rubber ring configuration can help improve conveyor performance and service life.

An impact roller is a conveyor roller designed for use beneath loading and transfer points where falling material can create higher impact forces on the conveyor belt and idler arrangement.
They are commonly installed beneath conveyor loading and transfer zones where bulk material is loaded onto the belt.
Selection depends on the material, particle size, drop height, loading rate, belt characteristics and conveyor design.
Roller dimensions can be configured according to conveyor design and application requirements, subject to the manufacturer’s available range.
Common options may include carbon steel and stainless steel, depending on the application and configuration.
Consider conveyor width, roller diameter, roller length, shaft dimensions, spacing, material, loading conditions, environment and required load rating.
No. It provides an indicative load calculation. Final selection should be verified using actual conveyor and operating conditions.
Not necessarily. They are generally considered for loading and transfer areas where impact protection is required.
Keep the loading zone aligned, inspect rollers and bearings, remove buildup and replace damaged or worn components as required.
