Exact Fit Instead of On-Site Rework
Screw flights manufactured to size reduce installation effort and avoid improvisation with inner diameter, pitch or material thickness.
Screw Flights as Wear Parts & Spare Parts
Screw flights are used wherever bulk materials are dosed, mixed, compacted or conveyed. In screw conveyors, discharge units and dosing systems, they are among the components exposed to the highest mechanical and abrasive loads.
Wear on edges, flanks and support surfaces changes conveying performance, reduces dosing accuracy and increases the risk of downtime. Precisely fitting screw flights as wear parts and spare parts help restore reliable operation.
capilla manufactures screw flights from drawings, samples or dimensional data and matches material, thickness and design precisely to the real application.
Custom Screw Flights for Maximum Dimensional Accuracy in Conveying, Mixing and Dosing Systems
Every screw conveyor places its own demands on geometry, material and operating conditions. Even small deviations in diameter, pitch or material thickness impair conveying performance, wear and assembly.
We manufacture screw flights exactly to drawing or sample. Whether a single segment or a complete set, for abrasive, corrosive or high-temperature applications you receive precisely fitting components that can be installed without time-consuming rework.
Manufactured to Size. For Maximum Service Life.
The cost-effectiveness of a screw conveyor does not result from its geometry alone. Only the right combination of material, material thickness and design for the bulk material and load ensures durable and reliable operation.
Stable Material Flow
Suitable geometries ensure consistent conveying and improve dosing accuracy, discharge behaviour and mixing performance.
Material Matched to the Application
From structural steel and stainless steel to wear-resistant materials, we adapt the screw flight to abrasion, temperature or corrosion.
Fast Replacement in Maintenance Situations
Missing or worn segments can be reproduced quickly using dimensions, sample parts or drawings.
Lower Consequential Costs Through Reduced Wear
A suitable screw flight reduces friction, material loss and follow-on damage to troughs, shafts and adjacent components.
Also Suitable for Special Geometries
We support segments, partial turns, varying pitches and designs for specific conveying and mixing processes.
Which Details Matter for an Enquiry
For manufacturing screw flights, the key details are outer diameter, inner diameter, pitch, material thickness, quantity and handedness. Information about the conveyed medium, temperature and current service life is also helpful.
Manufacturing from Drawing, Sample or Dimensions
If no complete drawing is available, sample parts, photos or individual measurements are often enough to determine the right design. File attachments can be submitted directly with the enquiry.
Materials for New and Wear-Loaded Applications
Depending on the process, structural steels, stainless steels, heat-resistant materials or wear-resistant designs are used. For highly stressed applications, we also assess hardfacing solutions and wear-optimised materials.
Screw Flights as Part of Wear Protection and Repair
Screw flights are often only one part of the overall system. When required, we also consider shaft, trough, inlet zone and discharge so that spare parts, wear protection and future service life work together.
Request Screw Flights
Send us the available dimensions, the required quantity and, if possible, drawings, photos or sample information. We will review your enquiry and respond with a suitable solution for your screw flights as wear parts and spare parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Screw Flights
Screw flights are suitable for conveying technology, dosing systems, mixing equipment, discharge units and process applications in which bulk materials, powders, granulates or abrasive media are moved.
Yes. Sample parts, individual dimensions, photos or data on outer diameter, inner diameter, pitch and handedness are often enough to derive the correct geometry.
Depending on the application, structural steel, stainless steel, heat-resistant materials or wear-resistant versions are suitable. Selection depends on the conveyed medium, temperature, corrosion and abrasion.
Both. In many plants, screw flights are typical wear parts, but when they are replaced they are procured as precisely fitting spare parts. What matters is that geometry and material match the real load profile.
Yes. For abrasive conveying media, we assess wear-resistant materials, adapted material thicknesses and, where required, additional wear protection measures to increase service life.
Ideally, send drawings, sketches, photos, available dimension sheets or details about the application. The more precise the data on geometry and medium, the faster the right design can be assessed.
