Wooster R501-9 Soft Grip Roller Frame, 9 Inch, Blue

The Wooster Brush Company, founded in 1851 in Wooster, Ohio, USA, has been manufacturing innovative, high-performance painting tools for over 170 years. The company's trade names include a wide range of products, such as Ultra/Pro, Advantage, Yachtsman, and Shortcut paintbrushes; Super/Fab and Super Doo-Z roller covers; Sherlock frames and extension poles; Jumbo-Koter minirollers; and Prep Crew surface prep tools. Customers can feel confident knowing that Wooster is the name behind their painting tools.

One of the company's flagship products is the Wooster 501 frame, which adds both comfort and performance while painting. The frame features a blue Shergrip handle that provides a non-slip grip, making it perfect for use in hot or tired hands. Crafted with soft elastomeric material and durable polypropylene, the grip resists solvents, cleans easily, and won't swell or crack. The frame has been redesigned to fit more snugly in the hand, with a slightly larger width and a molded thumb groove. To reduce twisting when used on extension poles, a rim of Shergrip material at the bottom of the handle helps it lock onto threads.

Another Wooster product, the American Contractor roller covers, are designed for all markets where painters are looking for value and performance. Made in the USA with features from reliable fabric construction to core durability, these covers offer a low-price, production alternative while still being manufactured with the same precision and care as Wooster's top professional brands. The covers provide excellent pickup and release for high-production applications.

Wooster's commitment to innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction has made them a trusted name in the painting industry for over a century and a half. Whether it's the Wooster 501 frame or the American Contractor roller covers, the company's products are designed to meet the needs of professional painters and DIY enthusiasts alike, delivering both performance and comfort.
