Stop Roller
Sprint Drives offers the Stop Roller, a specialized conveyor component designed to deliver controlled stopping and positioning of items on gravity or powered roller conveyors. Perfect for accumulation zones, sorting lines, or loading/unloading points, the stop roller ensures safe, precise handling of unit loads without the need for complex braking systems.
The stop roller integrates a friction-based mechanism that provides reliable resistance when required—allowing conveyed items to slow down or stop smoothly at designated positions. This controlled deceleration helps prevent product damage, reduces noise, and maintains a safe, organized flow of goods on the line.
Engineered with a rugged steel tube and quality bearings, the stop roller is built for durability and long-term performance in demanding industrial environments. Its design is compatible with standard conveyor frames and layouts, making integration simple and efficient without major system changes.
