Advanced Roll Covers
Select from an extensive range of specially formulated premium coatings to seamlessly compliment and enhance your most exacting performance requirements.

The skilled engineers at Winchester Roll Products have leveraged our extensive industry experience in selecting a
range of specially formulated coatings to seamlessly match and enhance the performance of your roll products. Our premier range of roll coatings includes: chrome, rubber, polyurethanes, thermo sprays and composite epoxy. Winchester Roll Products utilizes advanced technology and engineering expertise to provide our customers with products that meet your exact specifications at an exceptional value. Winchester offers a series of polyurethane coatings uniquely designed to supplant traditional rubber covers in your paper machine as well as many other industrial applications.
The True Strength of Winchester’s Roll Coatings
- Hydrophobicity- Our polyurethane roll covers do not allow water to permeate the roll cover; they are hydrophobic. In the past, traditional polyurethanes have had to be dried out due to their hydrophilic nature. The innate hydrophobicity of our polyurethanes renders them the superior choice for the wet end of paper machine applications.
- Wear Resistance- Our uniquely formulated polyurethanes permit up to five times the wear resistance of rubber roll covers of comparable hardness.
- Reduced Slippage- Reduced slippage between your fabric and a roll in a paper machine saves you money. With reduced slippage your fabrics will have an extended life, your roll covers will last longer and a reduced amount
of energy will be required to drive your machine.
Select from a range of own in-house processes or coatings from our highly qualified vendors. Whatever your roll cover needs, rely on Winchester Roll Products to offer unparalleled industrial roll coating technology for optimal performance. Winchester Roll now offers a whole new line of roll covers. Click on the links on the right for more information:
Our Family of DuraTrax™ roll covers include:
FeltTrax™- a dryer felt roll cover is designed for extreme conditions. FeltTrax™ is a roll cover designed for higher temperatures than WireTrax so it can be used in areas where the constant operating temperature is 300 degrees Farenheit. FeltTrax™ provides exceptional performance for the higher temperatures found around the size press and inside the dryer hood. This roll cover is designed for the traction you require and offers the operator unsurpassed abrasion, hydrophobicity thermal stability and doctorability. Applications include dryer felt rolls, breast rolls, wire rolls, felt rolls,guide rolls, chemi-washer rolls, paper rolls, forming rolls,lead in/lead out rolls and other non-nipped rolls.
SlickTrax™- a high temperature release roll cover custom engineered to perform where “stickies” traditionally build up on a roll cover and pickthe sheet. SlickTrax™ is similar in design to FeltTrax with the addition ofTeflon® flour which provides the roll cover with release properties as well as the ability to be doctored Uniform Teflon® content throughout the roll cover allows the operator to regrind the cover when necessary to achieve a specific surface finish. Applications include dryer felt rolls, breast rolls, wire rolls, felt rolls, guide rolls, chemi-washer rolls, paper rolls, forming rolls, lead in/lead out rolls and other non-nipped rolls.
WireTrax™- a harder and more thermally stable wire and felt roll cover used in all traditional wire roll and press/wet felt roll applications. Custom engineered for the wet end of a paper machine, WireTrax™ roll covers provide optimal traction, durability, doctorability and hydrophobicity. The use of polyurethane roll covers is rapidly overtaking the use of rubber roll covers in the press section of a paper machine.Polyurethane polymers last longer and perform better, increase your coefficient of friction, reduce slippage
and prevent premature fabric wear. More traction means less horsepower needed to drive your wires and felts. Application include: Breast rolls, wire rolls, felt rolls, guide rolls, wire return rolls and other
non-nipped rolls.
ReelTrax™- a more advanced reel spool cover. ReelTrax™ is designed for cut and abrasion resistance as well as traction to provide tighter turn ups and reduced reel drum damage. ReelTrax™ roll covers are custom engineered for reel spools utilized in the paper machine. ReelTrax™ roll covers provide superior cut resistance, optimum traction for turn-ups, durability, protection for reel drums and noise vibration dampening. Applications: Reel spooks, reel drums.
Winchester Roll Products also offers high build polyurethane coatings to protect your valuable equipment from corrosion. The coating is excellent for protecting bearing housings, exposed steel surfaces, suction boxes and frame work. Our polyurethane machine coating is far more durable than paint and can be field repaired. All our polyurethane coatings can be doctored with composite, steel or UHMW doctor blades.
