Webancor Bowed Rolls: Precision Spreading for Wrinkle-Free Webs Webancor’s Bowed Roll series is engineered to eliminate wrinkles, bagginess, and web distortion with simplicity and durability. Designed to stretch the center of the web more than the edges, these long-lasting units deliver consistent results across a wide range of materials and speeds.
Smart Engineering, Reliable Performance
Design: Each roll features a solid center axle for vibration dampening, sealed precision bearings lubricated for life, and a flexible Hypalon sleeve—plus optional materials for specialized applications.
Modular Build: Custom diameters and lengths are easily accommodated thanks to our modular design.
Durability: Built with electric motor-grade bearings for low friction and easy rebuilds.

SM Series: Medium to heavy-duty rolls for multi-laminates and heavier papers.
HD Series: Heavy-duty rolls with diameters over 4¼″ for long spans and high-tension webs.
