ContiTech ROTAFRIX Friction Wheels, Rings and Pulleys
ROTAFRIX friction drive and anti-vibration wheels and rings are made of a special highly durable rubber compound. They are designed for drum drives and contact rolling drives. In drum drives, they perform two main tasks:
- They support the drums and the material inside, thus reducing vibrations.
- They transfer the energy needed to rotate the drum.
In use, they are characterized by long service life, low space requirements and easy installation.
ROTAFRIX® is a registered trademark for original friction drive wheels, rings and pulleys from ContiTech AG.
