Reasons For Using Polyurethane Casters In Heavy Industrial Applications - China

price: 1000.00 Dollar US$

Polyurethane tires are popular tire treads used on industrial wheels, whether in caster applications or drive wheel applications.

From noise reduction to corrosion resistance, there are many reasons to choose polyurethane tires for specific caster applications.

The following are the most compelling reasons:

1 - Noise reduction

Polyurethane tires are a popular choice in industrial applications because they operate quietly compared to quiet wheels such as steel or cast iron.

Polyurethane acts as a shock absorber and helps cushion the driving process.

It can also absorb bumps caused by uneven terrain.

2 - Carrying capacity

Compared with rubber, polyurethane tires often use their load-bearing capacity.

Polyurethane can provide greater load-bearing capacity while still providing the advantages of rubber treads, such as reducing noise, absorbing impact and protecting the floor.

3 - Floor protection

Polyurethane tires dominate in applications where the protection of floors is vital.

Compared with harder wheel materials (such as nylon), polyurethane deforms and creates a larger footprint.

The larger surface area helps reduce stress concentration on the floor and keeps the floor in a better shape for a long time.

For factories where floors are expensive and critical to your operation, polyurethane tires may be the first choice.

4 - Better grip and traction

In industrial applications, another benefit of polyurethane tires is the friction coefficient of the material.

This value describes the ratio of the friction between two objects to the force that presses them together.

Rough surfaces tend to have higher effective values, while smooth surfaces have lower effective values ​​because of the friction that they produce when they are pressed together.

Polyurethane is often an easy-to-grip material, so its higher coefficient of friction can help prevent trailer dragging.

For harder wheel materials, sliding is an important consideration.

Polyurethane can also provide excellent traction to the drive wheels and help reduce the amount of load on the wheels to achieve the required driving force.

5 - Corrosion resistance

There are many different types of polyurethanes, and their resistance to specific environments or conditions varies.

For example, chemicals, solvents and even water.

In a humid environment, certain polyurethanes will not decompose or corrode in the presence of water.

In the event of chemical exposure problems, other types of polyurethane can be used to extend the life of the wheel.
