Description
Custom Electroplated Surface PU Rollers For Corrosive Washdown
Why Choose This Product
Standard rollers with painted or bare metal cores quickly develop rust and coating failure when exposed to caustic cleaners, steam, and high-pressure washdown. Our electroplated surface creates a dense, inert barrier that resists corrosion far better than conventional finishes, keeping the roller core protected even in demanding food or chemical plants. The polyurethane coating offers high abrasion resistance and a smooth, quiet rolling surface that does not mark belts or packaged goods.
As a professional custom solution provider in China, we give expert advice on roller diameter, length, bearing type, and plating material to help you lower the total cost of ownership for your conveyor system. These benefits are supported by in-house salt spray test reports, dynamic balancing records, and more than a decade of export experience serving material handling and washdown conveyor customers worldwide.

Production & Inventory Policy
Lead time: Actual delivery time is affected by material supply, production scheduling, and seasonal order volume, so reasonable fluctuations may occur. We will provide the most accurate delivery estimate after order confirmation and keep you informed throughout production.
Stock status: We usually produce custom rollers to order, but a selection of popular standard sizes is maintained in stock. Real-time availability changes as products are sold and new batches are produced, so please confirm current stock with our sales team before placing an order.
Bulk and urgent orders: For large-volume or time-sensitive requirements, please contact us in advance to discuss production capacity and scheduling. We will do our best to match your timeline and keep you updated on progress.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the electroplated surface protect rollers in corrosive washdown environments?
The electroplated layer forms a dense, inert metal barrier on the roller core, preventing moisture and chemicals from reaching the base steel or aluminum. In our 200-hour salt spray test, electroplated cores show no visible rust or pitting, which gives conveyor systems a longer service life in high-humidity and washdown conditions.
2. Do you offer competitive wholesale pricing for custom electroplated PU rollers?
As a direct China factory, we provide fair wholesale pricing based on quantity and specification. For volume orders, contact us for a tailored quote. Our OEM/ODM service helps you reduce total cost while maintaining consistent quality and reliable delivery.
3. Can you customize the roller diameter, length, and PU hardness?
Yes. Our standard range covers diameters from 38 mm to 200 mm and lengths from 100 mm to 2000 mm, with PU hardness available from Shore A 75° to 95°. Tell our engineering team your load, speed, and washdown conditions, and we will recommend the right specification and provide expert advice for your application.
4. What is the MOQ for custom electroplated PU rollers?
The MOQ for custom sizes is 10 pieces per specification. For standard popular models, we can also offer smaller trial orders so you can validate the roller performance in your own line before committing to bulk volume.
5. Do you support OEM and ODM customization with our own logo and packaging?
Absolutely. We offer OEM branding, custom packaging, and ODM support including structural design and coating formulation adjustments. For OBM projects, we can also work with your product management team to develop a private label solution for your market.
6. What is the typical delivery time for a bulk order?
Typical lead time is 15 to 25 days after order confirmation, depending on material availability and current production load. We will give you an accurate schedule at the time of order placement and provide regular updates during production.
7. How do you ensure roller quality before shipment?
Every electroplated surface PU roller goes through dimensional inspection, PU hardness testing, plating thickness verification, and a running test for rotation smoothness. Salt spray certificates and material test reports can be included with delivery, and third-party inspection is welcome before shipment.
8. Can you provide samples for testing before we place a bulk order?
Yes. Sample requests for custom electroplated PU rollers are accepted. The sample cost is charged according to specification, and the cost is deductible from your first production order once the sample is approved and the bulk order is confirmed.
