Durston 1090 TUI 130 Double Sided Power Rolling Mill-130mm Flat & 130mm Wire 110V - 128.142

Durston 1090 TUI 130 Double Sided Power Rolling Mill-130mm Flat & 130mm Wire 110V - 128.142

The Durston DRM-130 is a double-sided powered rolling mill built for serious production work. One side features a full 130 mm flat roll for sheet reduction; the other carries a dedicated 130 mm wire roll with 19 square groove sizes ranging from 1 mm to 10 mm. The cast iron base and gearbox cover provide the strength and rigidity needed for demanding studio and production environments, while high-quality Swedish roll steel — heat-treated to RC 63/64 — runs in heavy-duty roller bearings for long-lasting precision.

Power comes from a 1.5 hp (1.1 kW) 110 V motor paired with a precision epicyclic variable-speed gearbox, delivering smooth, near-silent operation across a 5–30 rpm speed range in both forward and reverse. Side extension rollers add quick half-round profiling capability without a tool change.

A: It’s a heavy-duty unit (approx. 160kg / 341 lbs) designed for stability and long-term use in workshops.

Maintenance Tips

• Keep rollers clean & polished – After each use, wipe the 130mm flat and wire rollers to remove metal debris. This prevents surface damage and preserves the hardened 64 RC finish.
• Lubricate moving parts regularly – Apply light machine oil to gears, bearings, and adjustment screws to maintain smooth variable-speed operation and reduce wear on the 1.1KW motor system.
• Avoid overloading capacity – Do not exceed 6mm sheet thickness or 10mm wire capacity to prevent roller misalignment and motor strain.
• Use proper material preparation – Always anneal metal before rolling to reduce stress on the rolls and ensure consistent results across both flat and wire sides.
• Check alignment periodically – Ensure rollers are evenly aligned across the 130mm width to avoid uneven rolling and long-term damage.
• Protect from rust & humidity – Store in a dry workshop and apply anti-rust oil when not in use, especially on exposed steel components.
• Inspect safety features – Regularly test emergency stop, safety bars, and guards to maintain safe operation during powered use.
• Secure mounting surface – Bolt the mill to a stable stand or workbench to handle its heavy-duty operation (~150kg+) and prevent vibration damage.
• Clean extension rollers – Maintain side extensions and grooves (1mm–10mm range) free from debris for precise wire forming.
