Seam Rollers

Round Plastic Roller with Straight Handle

Oval Plastic Roller with Straight Handle

Round Plastic Roller with Offset Handle

Round Stainless Steel Roller with Straight Handle

Round Stainless Steel Roller with Offset Handle

Roll the seams where wall coverings meet for an even, continuous appearance.

Plastic rollers are good for light duty applications such as wallpaper. Rollers with an oval shape offer more pressure control than round rollers.

Stainless steel rollers resist corrosion and have better pressure control than plastic rollers, which helps you smooth out seams and air bubbles on wall coverings. Use these rollers for heavy duty applications, such as construction, roofing tape, countertops, and set tile.

Rollers with an offset handle give you more control in tight spaces than straight handles. They’re useful for working in corners and along walls.
