The Durston TUI C130 Power Rolling Mill delivers Durston's proven rolling performance at a lower cost by using a steel base and perforated aluminum gearbox cover in place of the DRM line's cast iron base and cover. All other core components are identical to the DRM series — motor, gearbox, and one-piece cast iron mill frame with high-quality steel rolls seated in heavy-duty roller bearings — making the TUI an excellent choice for busy production shops and school environments alike.
This single-sided combination mill handles both flat sheet rolling and wire rolling in one unit, with side extension rolls for half-round profiles. Forward/reverse variable speed control, an emergency stop button, and front and rear safety bars provide confident, controlled operation.
Features
- Single-sided combination design — 130 mm flat rolling surface plus wire grooves on the same roll set
- Side extension rolls with protective guards for half-round profiles in 4, 3, 2, and 1.5 mm sizes
- Forward and reverse variable speed control for precise material handling
- Emergency stop button plus front and rear safety bars for operator protection
- Metric and inch adjustable flywheels for accurate gap setting
- Steel base and aluminum gearbox cover reduce cost while retaining full DRM-grade rolling components
- 1.1 kW (1.5 HP) motor and shared DRM gearbox deliver consistent, repeatable results

Maintenance Tips
- Clean rollers after every use – Wipe the 130mm combination rolls (flat + wire grooves + side extensions) to remove metal dust and prevent scoring on the 64 HRC hardened surface.
- Protect with light rust oil – Apply a thin layer of 3-in-1 oil when not in use; always clean fully before rolling to avoid contaminating metal stock.
- Keep wire grooves & extensions clear – Regularly clean the 11 wire grooves (1–8mm range) and half-round side extensions (4–1.5mm) to maintain accuracy and smooth feeding.
- Lubricate gearbox & drive system – Use standard lithium-based grease on gears to ensure smooth variable-speed operation (5–20 RPM) and reduce motor strain.
- Avoid overloading – Stay within ~6mm sheet thickness; reduce in gradual passes to protect rollers, gears, and motor longevity.
- Use clean, annealed metal only – Dirty or hardened stock increases roller wear and reduces finish quality.
- Check alignment regularly – Ensure even pressure across the full 130mm width to prevent uneven wear and maintain precision rolling.
- Secure mounting is essential – Bolt firmly to a stable bench to handle heavy operating torque and prevent vibration issues.
- Store in dry conditions – Prevent humidity exposure to avoid corrosion on rollers and internal components.
- Never touch rollers with bare hands – Skin oils can leave marks on precision steel over time; handle with clean gloves or tools.
