Roller and wheel covering in rubber and polyurethane

Soremag covers and refurbishes your rollers and wheels, and manufactures your custom cast polyurethane parts — from material selection to precision finishing.

Technical reps in the field, a chemical engineer and lab validation: we validate the right material for your application instead of guessing at it.

Rush service and pickup in Laval and Montreal · anywhere in Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

Rubber and polyurethane specialists since 1990

We think like engineers, not like a catalog: we start from your real constraint — abrasion, load, chemistry, speed, temperature — to pick the material and the hardness that will hold up. Covering, manufacturing, machining and balancing: all under one roof, in Quebec and eastern Canada.

Roller Covering

Rubber or polyurethane: we give your rollers and wheels back their grip, precision and service life, with a full refurbishment or simply a surface regrind, in house. Custom covering hardness, matched finish and grooving, balancing and reverse engineering even without a drawing.

Grinding of rubber and polyurethane rollers

Precision grinding: diameter, crown, concentricity and surface finish (Ra/Rz) held to tolerance — the finish often counts as much as the material.

Roller Grooving

Spiral, longitudinal or diamond grooves: channel water and air away, increase traction and break the air cushion that causes slippage at high speed.

Lifting to 10 metric tons, machining up to Ø 42 in. × 240 in., Ø 68 in. × 175 in. or Ø 76 in. × 36 in. — few shops in Canada have that capacity under one roof. State-of-the-art CNC equipment built for precision grinding and grooving of rubber and polyurethane, networked in real time: every part is tracked from receiving to shipping. And we like a challenge — if your project goes beyond our current capacity, we'll tool up for it.

What our customers say

Concrete results, in our customers' own words. Genuine testimonials; for confidentiality, our customers remain anonymous.

Directeur de productionEntreprise de lamination · Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu

“A Soremag technical rep came on site and took the time to really understand our application. After talking with our operator, he recommended changing the material on the press roller of our sander: we went from nitrile to a new special SBR and natural rubber compound, with the hardness lowered to 80 Shore A. The service life of our roller doubled — the return on investment was instant. (translated from French)”

Directeur de l'optimisationUsine d'acier · Montréal

“Our new production machine was marking our coils. The machine builder had added a tapered rubber roller, but that part had a very short service life — a week, sometimes less. In a single visit, the Soremag rep proposed a polyurethane covering matched to our speed and our load. The result is impressive: installed three months ago, the roller still looks new. (translated from French)”

Directeur de la qualitéSecteur aviation · Mirabel

“We assemble aircraft, and while handling parts we would sometimes damage the floor tile. After a visit from Soremag, several solutions were proposed. Two weeks later, Soremag had built a mold and a cast polyurethane part that protects the parts being handled and prevents steel-on-steel contact. Our problem was solved — and we have since applied the same type of part in twelve other spots on our assembly line. (translated from French)”

Foire aux questions

Frequently asked questions

Rubber or polyurethane: which one should I choose for my roller? +

Rubber excels at grip and at chemical and heat resistance; polyurethane holds up better to abrasion, load and cutting. Every application is different — and your equipment itself changes over time. So we analyze each case in house and give you one or more suitable options.

Are you experts in molding polyurethane parts? +

Yes. Since 1990, we have developed many polyurethane formulations in house, we use the best raw materials and we run equipment we keep current.

Can you cover a roller or make a part without a drawing? +

Yes. Through reverse engineering, we reproduce the dimensions and the hardness from your old roller, from a part or from a sample, even without a drawing. Our customers' equipment has often been modified, or production speeds have changed: even with an original drawing, it is common to adapt the material — and sometimes the shape of the roller — to the new requirements of the equipment.

What covering hardness do I need for my application? +

Hardness depends on the load, the speed, the pressure applied, the deflection, the transfer rate in some cases, and the grip you are after. We recommend and apply the exact covering hardness suited to your process.

What regions do you serve? +

Based in Laval, we actively serve Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, with rush and pickup service in Laval and Montreal. Some of our products are also recognized in Europe and the United States.

Do you offer emergency service and pickup/delivery? +

Yes: on-site technical service, emergency troubleshooting and even same-day service in some cases, with pickup/delivery of your rollers and custom shipping crates to cut your downtime. Things go wrong sometimes — at Soremag, we get it.
