More About Insert Roller Capacity

Examples: A heavy item in a corrugated carton is likely to indent and flex, depending on the quality of cardboard, it would suggest a live loading of 5-10 lbs. (2.27-4.54 kg) per Insert Roller.

The same item on a smooth, hard, solid, flat, non-flexible quality plastic tray would indicate a reasonable live loading of 15 lbs. (6.8 kg) or less per Insert Roller, for successful, minimum effort, movement.
