Vulkollan Polyurethane Wheels

As the industry gold standard for high-performance polyurethane elastomers, Vulkollan is engineered specifically for the most demanding industrial environments. Processed through a hot-casting method, it is designed to deliver exceptional mechanical properties and dynamic stability for heavy-duty and high-speed mobile equipment.

Core Technical Advantages

Dynamic Load Capacity: It maintains the highest load-bearing capacity of nearly all elastomers, making it ideal for high-speed AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) and heavy-duty forklifts.

Low Rolling Resistance: It has a very low hysteresis loss (heat buildup), which significantly reduces energy consumption and prevents the wheel from deforming under constant motion.

Superior Mechanical Strength:

Tear Resistance: Highly resistant to "chunking" or tearing when rolling over metal shavings or debris.

Abrasion Resistance: Outlasts standard polyurethanes in high-friction environments.

Temperature Stability: It maintains its mechanical properties across a wide thermal range, typically from -20°C to +80°C.

Common Applications

Technical Comparison: Vulkollan vs. Standard PU

While standard MDI or TDI-based polyurethanes are suitable for general use, Vulkollan is usually required when:

1. Speeds exceed 10 km/h.

2. Continuous duty cycles are required (minimal cooling time).

3. High static loads are present.
