Fibreglass Sleeves Explained

At NW Rollers, we specialise in delivering high-performance fibreglass sleeves designed to meet the diverse needs of industries such as printing, roofing, packaging, and more. With a reputation for durability, precision, and ease of use, our sleeves are an integral part of modern manufacturing processes.

What Are Fibreglass Sleeves?

As their name suggests, these are not just sleeves but high-strength, wear-resistant sleeves that can endure extended usage without compromising on quality. Their lightweight nature makes them easy to transport and handle, and they’re quick to install, ensuring a long-term, durable investment.

There are several types of fibreglass sleeves:

• Conical
• Tapered
• Parallel

In each instance, they are offered in a wide range of sizes and are part of our Easysleeve® System, the worldwide No.1 in tapered sleeves suitable for a wide range of production.

Why Use Them?

They are particularly popular in the following industries:

• Printing
• Packaging
• Lamination

Because of their durability, they are highly suited to industries where there is high-volume production. For example, in print production, reliance on consistent quality is paramount.

Fibreglass sleeves support efficient production, and thanks to their low maintenance properties, time is not wasted. Sleeves do not have to be replaced frequently, resulting in reduced downtime and maintenance costs.

Industries looking for advanced-level print quality turn to fibreglass sleeves to provide it. They offer precision engineering that delivers consistent performance. This is essential when printing high-volume materials that require accurate and uniform colour and coverage throughout, with fewer print defects and misalignment.

In addition, fibreglass sleeves minimise the need to use heavy lifting equipment, crates, and technical storage systems.
