Guide Roller System – Standard Type SFRS (with Integrated Damping Pads)

At Hubner Australia, we proudly offer the standard Type SFRS guide roller system from Römer Fördertechnik GmbH (RFT Germany). Moreover, this system includes built-in damping pads and is now supplied across Australia and New Zealand. As a result, it provides precise and smooth guidance—especially in environments where rail misalignment can cause jolts and premature wear.

 Key Features & Benefits

  • Patented damping pads
    First and foremost, the SFRS includes patented damping pads that absorb sudden impacts due to rail misalignment. Consequently, they prevent damage to wheels and bearings

  • High load capacity
    As a standard unit, it handles dynamic loads up to 160 kN and static loads of 300 kN, making it suitable for most crane and rail systems. For heavier-duty needs, reinforced versions support up to 400 kN

  • Double-wheel design
    In addition, dual rollers (Ø 156–200 mm standard) ensure balanced weight distribution. Furthermore, adjustability via spacer plates helps maintain alignment and compensates for wear

  • Easy lateral adjustment
    You can fine-tune lateral alignment within ± 10 mm to suit various rail widths and profiles

  • Durable, single-piece axle
    The robust, one-piece axle design, coupled with quality bearings, offers reliable and long-lasting operation

  • Maintenance convenience
    Moreover, the system is user-friendly—featuring grease nipples for quick lubrication and simple roller replacement if needed

  • Made in Germany
    Finally, the entire unit is manufactured in Germany to the highest quality standards
