For production purposes, urethane rollers are often the superior choice when compared to other types of rollers, such as those that are coated with rubber. If you're interested in acquiring urethane rollers that you can use for industrial purposes or for other uses, then you may want to find a urethane roller manufacturer or another company that sells and works with rollers. These are some of the ways that you can acquire a urethane roller.

Purchasing a Pre-Made Roller

You can actually purchase a pre-made urethane roller; these can often be purchased straight from the manufacturer, or they can be purchased from various industrial supply companies. These are a few signs that buying a pre-made urethane roller is going to be the best option for acquiring the roller that you need:

• You need a roller right away. This is especially true if your existing roller has worn out and if you aren't able to get things done in your facility without having a roller. In this situation, buying a pre-made roller might be better than placing a custom order. In fact, if you can find one locally instead of ordering it online in this circumstance, you might find that this is the best route to take if you want to reduce downtime.
• You need a standard roller. Basically, if you need a standard type of roller in a standard size, then it should not be a problem to find and purchase a pre-made roller that will work well for you.
• You are hoping to purchase a roller for an affordable price. You will probably find that pre-made urethane rollers are going to be your cheapest option. However, be aware that you should still look for a roller that is well-made since a cheaper roller might end up costing you more money in the future if it doesn't work well or last long.

Ordering a Custom Roller

If you can't find the roller that you need from an industrial supplier, then you should know that many urethane roller manufacturers actually fulfill customer orders. If you provide information about what you will be using the roller for and what size you need the roller to be, then they can make a custom roller that is going to be right for your business.

Having an Existing Roller Coated 

If you already have a roller that is the appropriate size and diameter for your needs, and if you have generally found that your roller has worked well for your needs, then you don't necessarily have to replace it to make use of the benefits of urethane. Instead, consider looking for a urethane roller manufacturer that will coat your existing roller with urethane for you; this is a popular service among these companies.
