Heavy Duty Castor Wheel About
Heavy Duty Castor Wheel
Solid and tough rubber made Heavy Duty Castor Wheel is used as integral part of lumbar storage cart. Usually, its diameter is 8 inch and it can withstand maximum 500 pounds of load. Steel hub of this wheel is equipped with ball bearing that enables cart to move smoothly on irregular terrain. This Heavy Duty Castor Wheel can endure irregular and bumpy road surface without causing any damage to cart parts. Generally, 9.33 inch height is maintained for its mounting plate.
Outstanding Durability and StrengthConstructed from pressed steel with a polyurethane wheel, these castors are engineered for harsh industrial use. The tread's 85-90 Shore A hardness ensures minimal wear, while zinc plating protects against corrosion. The wheels maintain reliable performance across a wide temperature range, making them suitable for both indoor and partially sheltered outdoor settings.
Effortless Mobility and Versatile MountingThe 360-degree swivel rotation combined with double ball bearings allows for fluid maneuverability even under significant loads. The top plate with four precisely spaced holes (115 mm x 100 mm plate, 85 mm x 72 mm spacing, 11 mm holes) ensures easy and secure mounting to various trolleys and equipment, streamlining installation and replacement processes.
FAQ's of Heavy Duty Castor Wheel:
Q: How do I install the heavy duty castor wheel with the four-hole top plate?
A: Begin by aligning the top plate's holes (spaced 85 mm x 72 mm) with the corresponding mounting surface of your trolley or equipment. Secure the castor using appropriate bolts (11 mm diameter). Ensure all fasteners are tightly fixed to support the intended load capacity and guarantee overall stability.
Q: What surfaces are best suited for this castor wheel?
A: These castor wheels are designed to perform reliably on both smooth and rough floors, thanks to their polyurethane tread and double ball bearing construction. This versatility makes them ideal for factory, warehouse, and industrial environments with varying floor conditions.
Q: When should I consider using castor wheels with brakes?
A: Wheels with brakes should be selected when you require the trolley or equipment to remain stationary during operation or loading. The brake option enhances both safety and stability, particularly on inclined or uneven surfaces.
Q: Where is this castor wheel commonly utilized?
A: This heavy duty castor wheel is widely used in India for industrial trolleys, material handling carts, and heavy equipment in warehouses, manufacturing plants, and distribution centers. Its robust construction and load-bearing capacity support demanding industrial needs.
Q: What benefits does the double ball bearing offer?
A: The double ball bearing system reduces rolling resistance and enhances maneuverability, especially under heavy loads. This minimizes operator effort and wear on the wheel, contributing to prolonged service life and smoother movement.
Q: How is temperature resistance important for this castor wheel?
A: With a temperature resistance of -20C to +80C, the wheel can operate efficiently in cold storage, hot manufacturing environments, or outdoors. This ensures dependable performance without material degradation or loss of load capacity in extreme conditions.
Q: What is the process for selecting the correct wheel size and load capacity?
A: Determine the total weight your trolley or equipment will carry, then divide by the number of castor wheels used. Choose a wheel size and load rating within the offered 700-1200 kg range that best meets your equipment's application and required mobility, adjusting for wheel size (available: 25/38/50/75 mm) as needed.
