ML6 High-Quality Polyurethane Products for Glass Fabrication Systems
ML6 PRECISION POLYURETHANE SOLUTIONS DELIVER UNMATCHED QUALITY AND FRICTION
Meridian Laboratory’s ML6 precision polyurethane products supercharge drives, brakes and idlers for glass shops, glazing contractors, millworks, and mirror fabricators. The ML6 process has been specifically engineered for industrial applications, with over 55 years of working with the world’s top manufacturers and brands.
Meridian Laboratory has a long history of success with this industry, because ML6 consistently exceeds the demanding quality specifications that glass fabricators require. Here’s a case where an international manufacturer of glass fabrication systems relied on ML6 to deliver quality and precision. Consistency was essential, and only ML6 was able to deliver long-lasting, reliable rollers that their machines required.
For over 20 years, this manufacturer continues to trust Meridian Laboratory to deliver quality, high-friction rollers:
“Regardless of volumes, Meridian Laboratory is outstanding on delivering parts on time. This combined with their consistently excellent quality is why Meridian Laboratory remains a key supplier to our production and manufacturing operations.“– Client.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PRECISION ROLLERS FOR GLASS FABRICATION SYSTEMS
While it’s easy to think “it’s just a roller”, it’s even easier to lose sight of how much you ask of your rollers and wheels, day in and day out. Keeping your operations running with a minimum of downtime for machine repairs, feed jams, or other time wasters (and money costers) means upgrading to superior components for your application. If you expect, and demand that your equipment do more, ML6 offers a proven upgrade you’ll notice immediately.
Take a look at the short video below to see one (of many) very simple reasons a more durable, precision roller can have a huge impact on your manufacturing environment.

So many similar companies continue to rely on Meridian Laboratory because of the nature of ML6, which is specifically designed for use high-friction situations where exceptional durability is necessary.
ML6 has a superior total indicated runout of 0.001” versus the average 0.005”-0.015” of competitor rollers
Does not mark or contaminate
-40°F to 200°F operating temperature range
Hardness of 40 Shore A to 65 Shore D
Meridian Laboratory has made improvements to the friction output of conventional rollers, by molding, not grinding, the outer surface of ML6 polyurethane rollers. Not grinding the outside surface also has the added benefit of improving the life of the rollers, because grinding tends to open the grain of plastic compounds, causing a much steeper rate of degradation.

I contacted Meridian Laboratory to obtain a slip ring for my Undergraduate Senior Capstone project. The project required a slip ring capable of highspeed data transfer with very little noise to drive an LED bar on a fan to generate images.… More Sven Krause was very knowledgeable and responsive and helped me figure out what product I needed. He even managed to get the slip ring donated to our team and had great advice on how to integrate it into our project. The project was a huge success thanks to Meridian Laboratory.
I have nothing but good things to say about working at Meridian Laboratory. I have developed lots of new skills during my time there such as how to use a variety of machines, how to communicate effectively with others and time management.… More Meridian has a very friendly work environment and is very welcoming. All of the other employees are very friendly and are always willing to help out if you ask. Scheduling is very flexible and management is very good. I have not had one day that I didn’t enjoy working at Meridian Laboratory.
Extremely professional, Vance is a pleasure to deal with and their response time is impressive. They take the time out of their day to help you with whatever you need not only because it’s their job but because they love what they do. They… More take care of their customers and will go above and beyond for your needs.
I found Meridian's polyurethane ML6 fit and finish to be superior to other rollers we had sourced in the past. The tolerances were very tight and eliminated a lot of the jamming issues we were experiencing from the OEM's parts.… More
We purchased 16 of the Rotocon MC500 Rotary Ground Assemblies. Your product is amazing, they work great and are rolling 20 hours a day still just fine. We have had them in service since December of 2019 and they have been absolutely bullet… More proof. This was the perfect solution to our power transfer problem.
