DRD/II 24G Gear Reduced S/R + 69 Inch Table
$3,989.00

Bailey DRD/II 24G Gear Reduced Slab Roller with 69" Table
Our engineers succeeded in building a thoroughly professional clay slab roller, with all the logical and rugged features you expect from Bailey, but at an extremely affordable price. Never before has a professional slab roller offered so much value!

The Bailey DRD/II 24G Slab Roller features gear reduction, which increases the amount of force applied by the wheel for greater capacity and easier clay rolling. In combination with the leverage supplied by our large 34" diameter round handle, this slab roller can roll approx. 2" of soft, wedgable clay into a slab in one pass. Built with quality and longevity in mind, Bailey uses steel gears- never nylon or plastic. All gear-reduced slab roller models, like the DRD/II 24G, have a Reverse-Threaded Handle Adapter installed to prevent damage to the gears should the handle be forcibly turned in the wrong direction. This feature is especially beneficial for schools and group studios where multiple users will have access to the slab roller. The steel rollers are set parallel and the height is simultaneously adjusted from one side for precisely even clay slabs. A convenient guide allows you to determine the clay thickness ranging from 1/16" - 1-1/2".

The Bailey DRD/II 24G Slab Roller machine is offset toward one end of the table because you need less space for the feed clay. This leaves a larger work area for the finished clay slab: 48" on the Long Table. The table has bi-level counters to enhance the slab rolling process. The lower feed counter exposes more of the bottom roller to grab and compress the clay while the higher exit counter permits the finished slab to glide out smoothly. The melamine surface of the counters minimizes drag on the finished clay slab. Note: melamine surfaces should not be saturated with water. Do not leave wet clay sitting on the counter top for extended periods. Wipe clean and dry with a towel. Do not cut directly on the melamine surface or damage may occur.

Both the Long and Short tables have castors on 2 legs to allow you to easily move the slab roller if necessary.

  • Steel Gear Reduction - Bailey uses only steel gears in their heavy-duty slab rollers for strength and durability: never nylon or plastic. Gear reduced for extra easy operation. 

  • 34" Dia. Round Handle - The large diameter handle provides ample leverage for easy rolling.

  • Reverse-Threaded Handle Adapter - Standard on all gear-reduced machines, this special design prevents damage to the slab roller if it is rolled in the wrong direction.

  • Simultaneous Height Adjustment - Top Roller is adjusted from one side only. Rollers always remain parallel for consistently even clay slabs.

  • One-Pass Slab Rolling - Bailey's unique Bi-Level Table features a lower feed counter that increases the surface contact between the bottom roller and the clay canvas for better grip and compression. Allows you to roll up to 2" of soft wedgable clay into a slab in one pass.

Includes handle and (1) Canvas.
