    Features
    Benefits
    Lightweight 6061Aluminium Extrusion
    Reduced mass weight for operators to handle
    Hollow Extrusion for Air containment
    Increased air volume to increase gripping force
    Independent Nylon Lugs
    Superior Gripping force, no return springs to puncture bladder and not like full strip style Air Shafts that cause the lug to bend over time.
    Nylon Lugs grip the core not wedge the core like rubber lug designs.
    Able to be used with all roll/core widths
    Bolt on Journals
    Easy for removal and/or replacement
    Anodised Aluminium Body and Black Oxide surface finished journals
    Anodising reduces the friction between the air shaft and the core, surface finishes protect the Air Shaft from corrosion and present the Air Shaft with cosmetic appeal
    External Bladders
    Easy and economical to  repair
    No special tools required for maintenance
    Convenient, speedy and simple repair
     
    • The Alilite range of Air Shafts is a Lightweight alternative to Steel Air Shafts and other Aluminium Air Shafts available, the hollow Aluminium extrusion profile gives the Air Shaft a greater air volume and superior and effective holding torque.
    • The Alilite design offers a deflated diameter of 149mm on the 6inch Air Shafts which can be used with both metric (150mm) and imperial 6inch cores with a Lug stroke to grip a maximum core ID of 157mm.
    • In todays market many industries are using varied core materials with varying core tolerances and the Alilite Air Shaft is designed to offer a flexible solution for all industries.
    • The Independent Nylon Lugs are free floating and this design provides superior gripping force on cores manufactured from Steel, Aluminium, Cardboard and Plastic compounds.
