We have provided more detailed industrial wheel design information below such as our high performance GT Wheel Design, our Omega Wheel Design Advantage, Tapered Bearing Adjustments, a Generic Wheel Print and a Wheel Selection Chart to help you with the selection of a wheel type based on several different criteria such as surface types, rolling ease, load carrying abilities, noise factors and more.
GT Wheel Design
The GT wheel is a high performance wheel that combines the toughness of blended elastomers and quality steel with the advanced wheel design to carry heavy loads without component breakdown. It will resist most chemicals in industrial and institutional environments.
Omega Wheel Design Advantages
The Omega Wheel is a patented urethane wheel developed for caster applications. This polyurethane wheel achieves its load bearing and enhanced impact absorbing capabilities through a patented web/spoke design. When the wheel encounters an obstacle, it flexes, cushioning the load, and rebounds to its original shape. It retains bond at high speeds and resists picking up metal chips.
