The functions of roll covers in the dryer section are to carry the felts or the sheet and provide long-term economy in high temperature environments.
Special high-temperature rubber compounds such as Therm X 250, Therm X 250R PLUS and Dyna X have been delivering dryer section durability where temperatures may reach 275-300 F degrees for a prolonged period of time.
The high temperature properties of composite technology have led to the development of new long-life compounds such as Tefrok Conductive and the new economical OPAL E cover.
Dryer Felt Rolls
The dryer felt carrying rolls guide and carry the felts through the dryer section where high temperatures are present.
Dryer felt roll covers must have good temperature, steam and abrasion resistance, good release to run clean, and excellent thermal shock resistance to resist cracking during normal wash-ups.
