Hittebestendige zwenkwielen (RM-Hot)

High-temperature caster with a heat-resistant steel wheel

De RM-Hot-serie combineert hittebestendige wielmaterialen (hogetemperatuurnylon, fenolhars, gietijzer, gesmeed staal) met speciale smeerstoffen en spelingverdragende passingen, zodat de zwenkwiel blijft rollen na thermische cycli.

Standaardwielen falen in ovens door verzachten, loslaten van de kern of vastlopen. RM-Hot-componenten worden geselecteerd voor herhaalde verhitting, niet alleen voor de piektemperatuur.

Specificaties

  • Loopvlakopties gewaardeerd van +120 °C tot +280 °C (fenolhars / gietijzer daarboven)
  • Hogetemperatuursmeringen voor lagers
  • Hittebestendige beugelpassing en grotere loopspleten
  • Rem- en zwenkopties getest na thermische cycli

Wheel materialTypical hardnessFloor protectionWhere it fits
Cast polyurethane (PU)Shore A 92–95Very good: non-marking compoundsAGV/AMR, trolleys on painted or epoxy floors, heavy duty
Injected PUShore A 90–95GoodCost-sensitive medium duty, light equipment
Cast nylon (PA6)Shore D 70+Fair: hard treadHigh load, dry indoor logistics, washdown
Glass-filled nylonShore D 75+FairHigher loads and temperatures than PA6
Solid rubberShore A 65–75GoodShock absorption, outdoor thresholds, economy

Selection factorRule of thumbEffect on performance
Load sizingTotal load ÷ 3 (not ÷ 4)On uneven floors only three wheels carry the cart
Wheel diameterBigger rolls easierLarger wheels cut push force and bridge gaps
Tread hardnessSofter = quieter, harder = easier rollingPick the softest tread that carries the load
Bearing choicePrecision ball for manual pushing, roller for heavy loadsBearings dominate rolling resistance at high load
Swivel vs rigid2 swivel + 2 rigid is the standard cart setupAll-swivel carts wander; all-rigid carts cannot steer
Floor conditionRough floors need bigger wheels and softer treadsSmall hard wheels on bad floors destroy both
