Wheels and castors are an essential element of many mobile structures, from warehouse and household trolleys to industrial equipment. They provide smooth and silent movement, withstand the required load and can be used on various surfaces.
Wheels and castors are ordered:
- for warehouse equipment - platforms, tool tables;
- production lines - systems for the assembly, transportation of raw materials and finished products;
- household use - furniture, workshops, garden trolleys, garage equipment;
- trade and exhibition structures - storefronts, mobile stands, shelving.
How to choose wheels and castors for trolleys
Load and operating mode
Each element is designed for a specific static and dynamic load. When buying, they take into account:
- the weight of the equipment itself;
- maximum cargo weight;
- driving conditions (smooth, intermittent, fast maneuvers);
- the number of videos.
Wheel diameter
It affects the smoothness of the ride and the ability to overcome bumps. The small diameter is suitable for flat floors and light loads, the large one provides better grip and a gentle ride on uneven surfaces, reducing pushing forces.
Contact layer material
The resistance of the rollers to slipping, noise, wear resistance and protection of the floor surface depend on it.:
- Rubber - inexpensive, quiet, soft, do not leave traces, ideal for tiles, laminate, parquet.
- Polyurethane is wear-resistant, can withstand medium and high loads, and is suitable for concrete and storage areas.
- Nylon, polyamide - high-strength, resistant to chemicals and temperature, but more rigid and noisy.
- Metal - used under high loads and extreme conditions.
Mounting type
The wheels can be fixed in various ways. The platform (mounting plate) is a universal option, suitable for most trolleys. A vertical rod or hairpin is often used in furniture and light structures. The pin/pin hole or bolt is used in specialized equipment.
Construction
The products are divided according to the type of execution:
- For non-rotating ones, they provide rectilinear movement and stability under heavy loads.;
- rotary - allows you to easily change the direction of movement;
- with a brake (stopper) - the trolley is fixed during unloading and storage.
Type of bearing
It affects the smoothness of rotation, load capacity and durability. The most common bearing options:
- Sliding (sleeve) is a simple and affordable option for light loads.
- Ball bearings are durable and provide a silent ride.
- Roller bearings are optimal for heavy and shock loads.
