Heidelberg SM 74 Yellow Distributor Roller (Exchange)

The Heidelberg SM 74 Yellow Distributor Roller is a precision-recovered exchange roller designed specifically for the Heidelberg SM 74 offset printing press. Part number M2.009.241F, this ink distributor roller oscillates laterally in the ink train to spread ink evenly across the full roller width. Distributor rollers play a critical role in leveling the ink film between ink form rollers and the rider rollers above them, preventing ink stripes and maintaining consistent ink density across the press sheet from lead edge to tail edge.

A properly functioning Yellow Distributor Roller is essential for uniform ink distribution and stable color throughout the press run. When distributor rollers wear, harden, or develop glazing over time, lateral ink movement becomes restricted, leading to ink stripes, ghosting, density variation, and inconsistent color. Replacing a worn distributor roller with a precision-recovered unit restores even lateral ink spread and eliminates distribution-related print defects, helping you maintain tight color tolerances from makeready through the full press run.

This Heidelberg SM 74 Yellow Distributor Roller is supplied as an exchange unit. Return your worn core within 30 days to avoid additional charges. All exchange rollers are precision-ground and recovered to OEM specifications, ensuring a drop-in fit on your Heidelberg SM 74 with no press modification required.
