About Polyurethane Trolley Wheel
Polyurethane Trolley Wheel
A Polyurethane Trolley Wheel is a durable and highperformance wheel designed for use in various types of trolleys carts and materialhandling equipment Made from polyurethane these wheels offer exceptional resistance to abrasion impact and wear making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications
Key Features and Benefits
Shock Absorption and Vibration Reduction Polyurethane absorbs shocks and reduces vibrations offering smoother movement and quieter operation compared to rubber or metal wheels
Resistance to Oils Chemicals and UV Exposure These wheels are resistant to oils chemicals and UV exposure ensuring longlasting performance in harsh environments
Floor Protection Polyurethane wheels are gentle on floors minimizing the risk of surface damage while providing superior traction for use on uneven or rough surfaces
Durability Known for their long service life these wheels are ideal for heavyduty and hightraffic areas
Applications
Polyurethane trolley wheels are commonly used in industries such as
Logistics
Warehousing
Manufacturing
Retail
Available in various sizes and load capacities they provide an efficient lowmaintenance solution that enhances mobility and reliability in material handling systems
Engineered for Heavy Industrial LoadsDesigned to accommodate loads between 100 kg and 500 kg, these polyurethane trolley wheels are ideal for rigorous industrial use. The wheels' cast iron or steel core provides exceptional structural integrity, allowing them to handle maximum loads and repetitive operations in warehouses and material handling facilities.
Excellent Durability & Floor ProtectionConstructed from high-density thermoplastic polyurethane, these wheels offer superior abrasion resistance and are fully non-marking, helping prevent scuffs and scratches on even the most delicate floors. Their robust composition is paired with a glossy, smooth finish for long-lasting performance in tough environments.
Low Noise and Superior ComfortPolyurethane wheels are engineered for quiet, vibration-free movement. The excellent shock absorption capacity reduces operational noise-making them suitable for applications where a quieter work environment is desired. They also minimize stress on equipment and handlers by absorbing impacts efficiently.
FAQ's of Polyurethane Trolley Wheel:
Q: How do I choose the appropriate size and load capacity for my trolley?
A: Select a wheel diameter and corresponding load capacity based on your equipment's total weight and application needs. Sizes range from 100 mm to 200 mm, and load capacity varies from 100 kg to 500 kg per wheel. For heavier or larger equipment, opt for a bigger diameter and higher load-rated wheel.
Q: What are the main benefits of using polyurethane trolley wheels over rubber or nylon wheels?
A: Polyurethane wheels combine high abrasion resistance, excellent shock absorption, and low rolling resistance with superior floor protection and quiet operation. They also offer a higher load capacity and resist oils, mild acids, and alkalies, making them more durable and versatile than rubber or nylon alternatives.
Q: Where are these trolley wheels typically used?
A: These wheels are commonly installed on industrial trolleys, warehouse carts, and other material handling equipment, especially in factories, distribution centers, and storage warehouses. Their low noise and non-marking features suit both heavy-duty and clean floor environments.
Q: What is the process involved in manufacturing these wheels?
A: Polyurethane wheels are produced using injection molding, wherein thermoplastic polyurethane is molded around a steel or cast iron core. The process ensures a strong bond and uniform surface finish, resulting in wheels that are smooth, glossy, and highly durable.
Q: When should I use ball bearings versus plain bore in these wheels?
A: Ball bearings are ideal when you require smooth, low-friction rotation and easier maneuverability, especially under higher loads or prolonged use. Plain bore wheels are suitable for lighter loads or applications with less frequent movement.
Q: How do I maintain polyurethane trolley wheels to ensure longer lifespan?
A: Regularly inspect wheels for wear, debris, and ensure bearings are clean. Avoid exposing them to concentrated acids or extreme heat beyond 80C. Occasional cleaning with mild detergents will maintain their non-marking surface and high performance.
