Heat Treatment
Heat-treated guide rollers, while optional, are recommended for demanding applications due to their superior durability, wear resistance, and ability to handle heavy loads. These properties lead to a longer service life and reduced maintenance costs.

| Wear Resistance | Very Good | Good |
| Service Life | Est. 10 years | Est. 3 years |

Mechanical Dust Cover
Mechanical dust covers prevent debris and dust from entering the inner bearing core which could lead to damaging the leading edge of the belt – we highly recommend them.
Note for installation: Dust covers are typically only needed when the guide roller is mounted above the belt (steel spindle / shaft pointing upwards), as gravity may allow contaminants to enter the bearing core.
Benefits
Keep the conveyor belt in alignment: Prevent your conveyor belt from moving off course, causing material spillage, safety hazards, and unnecessary belt damage.
Outlasts rubber, UHMW, nylons, plastics, and polyurethane: Cheaper side guide rollers last months compared to a quality steel guide roller which can last years
Secure the belt edge: The guide rollers mitigate belt oscillation and heave, eliminate risks of belt entrapment and climb-over, and absorb lateral belt loads to prevent edge curl.
Made for surface & underground mining, cement, aggregate, and corrosive rock salts: Trusted by international mining companies to operate in the harshest environments and applications.

Installations
- Near the tail and drive pulleys
- At loading and unloading zones where material is fed onto or discharged from the belt
- Before and after transition points or direction changes in the conveyor path
- In long straight sections and inclined/declined sections of the conveyor
- Areas of high belt tension
- On the carry (top) side and return (bottom) side of long conveyors over 200 ft long or with high speeds
- Where the conveyor experiences pronounced belt run-off tendency and considerable transverse forces (e.g. side loading, diverter bars, multiple redirections in belt path)
- Behind the loading point if there is a long slack side

We are using these on our reversing belts and had such good luck with the first 6 we brought in back in July, they asked me to order 8 more.
Response from PROGUIDE
Thank you David for your feedback and the pictures of the guide roller in action!
We are using both the regular guide rollers for self-aligning rollers. We just currently bought the 6” diameter rollers as well. They are great products!
Ontario Trap Rock has been using hardened guide rollers for 4 years and have had great success with them. They more than double the life of any you can buy from OEM suppliers. With being able to change out the common size bearings, if needed, their up-time is 100%. Greasable dust covers make them last in the most harsh conditions. I highly recommend them with any conveyor in the rack or return side applications.
