9" Knit-Fabric Roller Cover
The Wooster R281-9 is a 9-inch paint roller cover built with knit fabric and a 3/4-inch nap. It fits standard cage frames through a 1 1/2-inch polypropylene core. The cover handles flat, eggshell, satin, stain and waterproofing coatings on rough surfaces such as brick, concrete, drywall, masonry and wood.
Upgrade from thinner naps
A 3/4-inch nap holds substantially more material than 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch covers, so fewer reloads are needed on textured walls. The jump is worth it when the surface is rough enough that a thinner nap leaves holidays or requires excessive pressure to fill pores.
Sustained loading on rough substrates
The knit construction resists matting while the dense nap maintains an even film during long rolling sessions on abrasive surfaces. Polypropylene core prevents water absorption, so the cover keeps its shape and release characteristics from the first dip to the final clean-up.

Questions about this item
What roller frame style does the 9 in cover fit?
The cover is made for a cage-style roller frame with a 1 1/2 in core diameter.
How do you install the cover on the frame, and what step is often missed?
Slide the cover onto the cage frame until it seats fully on the core; the step people miss is not pushing it far enough so the nap sits even.
When should the knit fabric cover be replaced?
Replace it when the nap mats down, sheds fibres into the finish, or no longer holds enough paint for rough surfaces like brick or concrete.
