Nylon Roller Refill Polax 8x48x180 mm for Paint Roller Frames

The Polax Nylon Roller Refill 8x48x180 mm is a replacement roller cover designed for use with compatible paint roller frames. Made with a synthetic nylon nap, this refill is intended for general-purpose painting tasks on interiors and exteriors. Its construction supports application of both water-based and oil-based paints and is suitable for walls, ceilings and trim where a nylon roller is preferred.

Advantages

The nylon fibre provides consistent paint hold and release for uniform coverage across varied surfaces. The refill is dimensioned to fit standard frames that accept 8 x 48 x 180 mm covers, allowing quick replacement and continued workflow. Its synthetic nap resists matting and sheds less than some natural fibres, which helps maintain finish quality during repeated use. The design tolerates water- and oil-based formulations, increasing versatility for different jobs and materials.

Suitable for

• Painting interior walls and ceilings with water-based emulsions
• Applying oil-based paints and primers on trim and doors
• General-purpose surface finishing on plaster, drywall and masonry
• Jobs requiring a durable synthetic roller nap with moderate texture

Key specifications

• Roller material: synthetic nylon nap
• Dimensions: 8 mm core diameter x 48 mm nap width x 180 mm length
• Suitable paint types: water-based and oil-based
• Intended use: general-purpose painting and finishing
• Compatibility: designed as a refill for standard 8x48x180 mm roller frames

How to use

Fit the refill onto a compatible paint roller frame by sliding the roller cover onto the frame’s core until it seats securely. Before painting, load the roller evenly by rolling it in a tray or grid to pick up paint and remove excess. Apply paint with even pressure and overlap each pass to avoid visible lines. Clean the roller according to the paint manufacturer’s instructions: use warm soapy water for water-based paints or the appropriate solvent for oil-based products, and allow the refill to dry fully before storage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select this nylon refill when you need a durable, easy-to-clean roller that performs well with both water- and oil-based coatings. Replace the refill if the nap becomes matted or if fibres begin to shed noticeably, and store dry to preserve nap integrity.
