RollEase Heavy Duty Spring Idler End Pin (1.5" Tube) -- the idler end of a motorized RollEase shade
This genuine Somfy idler end pin carries the free end of a 1.5" RollEase roller tube, opposite the motor. The spring-loaded pin compresses so the assembled tube drops into a pair of SkyLine brackets without shimming, then holds tension to keep the shade square and rolling straight. The heavy duty version handles larger and wider shades where a standard idler would flex.
Benefits
- Spring-loaded pin lets one person load the tube into the brackets
- Heavy duty build suits wide and tall shades that load the idler end
- Keeps the tube square so the fabric tracks straight through full travel
- Drops into the same RollEase SkyLine brackets used for the motor end
- Genuine Somfy part, matched to the 1.5" RollEase tube profile

Common questions
What does this idler end pin do?
It supports the free end of a 1.5 in RollEase roller tube, opposite the motor. The spring-loaded pin compresses so the tube drops into its brackets, then pushes back to hold the shade in place.
Which roller tube does it fit?
Part 9017912 fits a 1.5 in RollEase roller tube. Pair it with the RollEase 1.5 in Crown and Drive (9020674) at the motor end so both ends of the tube match.
Which Somfy motors can I use with it?
Somfy lists it for Sonesse ULTRA 30 WireFree, Sonesse 28 WireFree, Sonesse 30 and Roll Up 28 and 30 WireFree motors. In this store that includes the Sonesse Ultra 30 WireFree 12V Li-ion RTS Motor (1003310) and the Sonesse 30 RTS 24V DC Motor (1241142).
Which brackets does it mount into?
It drops into RollEase SkyLine brackets, such as the SkyLine Bracket Set with 2 in projection (9017910). The same brackets hold the motor end once you add the Motor Bracket Adapter Plate (9016378).
When should I choose the heavy duty version?
Choose it for larger and wider shades, where the idler end carries more weight. The pin keeps the tube square, so the fabric rolls straight through full travel.
What warranty does it carry?
Somfy covers part 9017912 with a 5-year warranty. Somfy sells it through its network of professional dealers and installers for motorized shade builds.
