Geruisarme & elastische zwenkwielen

Caster with a soft elastic grey rubber wheel for silent running

Super-elastisch grijs rubber loopt merkbaar stiller dan massief rubber of nylon, rolt met zeer weinig kracht en dempt drempels en voegen.

Het standaardwiel voor medische karren, laboratoriumapparatuur, hoteltrolleys en elke binnenomgeving waar geluid een klacht is.

Specificaties

  • Super-elastisch grijs rubber, laat geen sporen achter
  • Zeer lage rolweerstand ondanks het zachte loopvlak
  • Precisie geruisarme lagers als standaard
  • Lasten van 40 tot 300 kg per zwenkwiel

Typische materialen

Super-elastisch rubber op kern van staal / PP / aluminium

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
Super-elastic rubberShore A 55–65ExcellentQuiet running: medical, hotel, laboratory
Phenolic resin—FairBaking lines and ovens up to +280 °C
Forged steel—None: needs steel plate or heavy concreteExtreme loads, heat, harsh floors
Stainless (wheel/bracket)—GoodFood, pharma, washdown, corrosive areas

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
