Air roll lock differential shaft

Convertech’s new Air Roll Lock Differential Shaft features a system that ensures all roll locks grip cores independently and firmly. The newest design of its GlideLock clutched rollers includes CoreLock pads, which grip the core on loading, and apply the correct tension across multiple width cores and different materials on the same shaft. The clutched rollers eliminate dust, wobble, and slip while ensuring concentric rolls.—Convertech, www.convertech.com
