Hytile Section Roller

The Hytile Section Roller is the part of a Hytile roof tile elevator that carries the tiles along the aluminium ladder sections. It reduces the friction between the tile carrier and the frame, so tiles travel up the elevator smoothly and the machine wears evenly. It is a replacement part for the rollers positioned between the ladder sections and suits all current Hytile elevator models.

Key Features

• Reduces friction along the elevator ladder sections
• Guides tiles and the carrier smoothly up the machine
• Reduces wear on both the tiles and the elevator frame
• Robust build suited to outdoor site conditions
• Fits existing mounting points on the frame
• Suits all current Hytile elevator models

Specifications

• Product: Hytile section roller
• Compatibility: Hytile roof tile elevators
• Application: installed along ladder sections for tile travel
• Build quality: robust and durable, suited to outdoor use
• Installation: fits existing mounting points

Why The Section Roller Matters

Every tile that goes up the elevator passes over the section rollers, so they take constant wear. A roller that has seized or worn flat drags on the tile carrier and the frame, slowing the lift and speeding up wear on both. Replacing worn section rollers keeps the elevator running smoothly and extends the life of the machine.

Applications

• Replacing worn section rollers on a Hytile elevator
• Assembling a new elevator system
• Keeping tile travel smooth across all ladder sections
• Reducing wear on tiles during lifting

What You Need To Complete The Job

Pair the section roller with the rest of the roller set. Add a bend roller for the curves and a lower idler pulley for the base, and keep a section roller bolt on hand to mount it. Browse the Roofing Accessories range for more spares.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a section roller do?

It carries the tile carrier along the ladder sections of the elevator, reducing friction so tiles move smoothly and the frame does not wear unevenly. It is one of the working parts that keeps a lift reliable.

Will it fit my Hytile elevator?

The section roller suits all current Hytile elevator models and fits the standard mounting points between the ladder sections. Confirm your model before ordering if you are matching a machine.

How do I know when to replace it?

If the lift is dragging, the tiles are moving roughly, or a roller is seized or worn flat, replace it. A roller that is not turning cannot do its job.

Is it easy to install?

Yes. The roller fits onto the existing mounting points on the frame. Remove the old roller, fit the new one, and check it turns freely before using the elevator.
