A manufacturing method is provided for a roller, by which a roller having low eccentricity and high surface smoothness can be obtained without the need to perform cumbersome processes such as polishing of a foamed layer. The manufacturing method for a roller includes the steps of injecting a foam-layer compound into the space between a core bar, which is disposed at the center of a cylindrical mold, and an electron beam-irradiated tube, which has an outer diameter somewhat smaller than an inside diameter of the cylindrical mold, and which is set inside the cylindrical mold, and heating and foaming the foam-layer compound, so that the outer surface of the electron beam-irradiated tube is pressed against the inner surface of the cylindrical mold. |
