FlexPAL
Key Features

Retrofit Design

Flex Pal™ rolls are available in CEMA C & D ratings with 4", 5", and 6" diameters for belt widths ranging from 30" to 60" (76.2 cm - 152.4 cm). Flex Pal™ can be configured with carrying assemblies for roof-hung, floor-mounted and wire-rope structure.  All three types of Mount use Bucyrus handle & pin rail connections for a fast installation with no special tools required.

EXALON® Center Roll
The unique design of The Flex Pal™ idler features two steel rolls and one center EXALON® roll. EXALON® - an MSHA approved proprietary high-molecular-weight polyethylene - is flame resistant and safe for use in underground applications. The center EXALON® Roll of the Flex Pal helps increase idler life, reducing the frequency of replacing the center idler roll.

Greased for Life with Idler PAL®
Flex Pal™ rolls are greased for life with Idler PAL® - Positive Automatic Lubrication. A spring-loaded compensator disk allows grease to expand when hot and compresses it as the bearing cools. This ensures a constant pressure on lubricant in the bearing regardless of changes in volume.

Triple Tested Quality

Every Bucyrus roll is triple-tested for rotational torque, total indicated run out and bearing play. An industry first, each roll is engraved with a unique serial number to allow tracking throughout its service life.

Warranty

Like all Bucyrus rolls, Flex Pal™ rolls are triple tested and come with a standard warranty of three years to life.
