Custom Dryer Can Coverings Installed by Fluoron

Using our FEP roll covers, we can now provide an easy way to keep dryer cans clean from build-up and residue. These covers are accomplished with O.M.S. technology (On Machine Seaming) allowing for a sleeve to be installed without the removal of the dryer. The seams are virtually undetectable and seal strength is as strong as the Teflon® itself. Customers often opt to cover the first and/or second dryers after a size press or coater section.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I increase my dryer temperature without picking or build-up and increase machine speed?

Yes. Often dryer temperature has been decreased to reduce residue. With residue eliminated, the temperature and speed can be increased.

How long does it take to instal a Dryer Can Cover?

Once cleaning and preparation of the dryer is complete, the cover can be installed in 8 to 12 hours.

Teflon® is an insulator. Will this affect drying?

In 1965, the first roll cover of Teflon® was installed on a dryer. There has never been any problems with drying. In fact, drying temperature can be turned up to increase drying capacity.

Would this cover be satisfactory for resurfacing a dryer that has grooves and pitted areas?

The cover made with Teflon® FEP leaves a glass smooth finish, eliminating corrosion while filling grooves and pits with adhesive.
