Heavy-Duty Polyurethane Travel Wheel

In modern industrial equipment, heavy-duty polyurethane travel wheels are important components for carrying heavy weights and achieving efficient transportation. This article will provide detailed knowledge about polyurethane heavy-duty wheels from the perspectives of the concept, alias, characteristics, and types of heavy-duty equipment.

Concept of heavy-duty polyurethane wheels

Polyurethane heavy-duty wheels refer to industrial wheels designed and manufactured to withstand extremely heavy loads. Such wheels are usually made of high-strength polyurethane materials, combined with carbon steel, cast iron, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, and other wheel cores to form a composite structure. They are used in industrial production, logistics and transportation, heavy equipment movement and other fields.

The design standard of heavy-duty wheels usually takes rated load capacity as the main indicator. The single load-bearing capacity of professional-grade heavy-duty wheels can reach several tons or even tens of tons. Unlike ordinary wheels that only consider the mobile function, heavy-duty wheels have been precisely calculated and rigorously tested in terms of material selection, structural design, and process manufacturing to ensure stable performance under high load conditions.

Features of heavy-duty PU wheels

Ultra-high load-bearing capacity: Using a high-strength polyurethane formula, a single wheel can bear up to 3-20 tons, and special designs can even be higher.

Excellent impact resistance: The molecular structure is tight, which can effectively absorb and disperse impact energy and prevent the wheel body from cracking or deformation.

Excellent wear-resistant and resilient performance: Polyurethane materials have natural wear-resistant and resilient properties, and their service life is 3-5 times that of ordinary rubber wheels.

Good tear resistance: The polyurethane wheel surface is tear-resistant, not easy to peel and debond, and it can maintain a good service life even under high-frequency operation and complex road conditions.

Anti-corrosion and oil resistance: Polyurethane materials have good resistance to most oils and chemicals and are suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Low rolling resistance: The optimized wheel surface design ensures that movement under heavy loads is still relatively labor-saving.

Antistatic and flame-retardant properties: Some professional-grade heavy-duty wheels have these safety features and are suitable for special industrial environments such as clean rooms and coal mines.

Smooth and quiet operation: Compared with metal wheels, polyurethane heavy-duty wheels can effectively reduce operating noise and vibration transmission.
