The Pipe Dream

One of the most forgotten parts of the lane machine is the Duster Cloth Support Pipe. It is often removed during a cloth change and not replaced into the new roll.

This metal support is there to support the inner core of the duster cloth as the roll becomes depleted. When approaching the end of the roll, the inner core can bend due to the pressure applied to it by the ever-increasing size of the take-up roll.

The metal support pipe is especially important if you are using K3 duster cloth. It is recommended that there be a pipe in both the take-up and supply rolls when using this product.
