Heavy-Duty Polyurethane Caster Wheels are engineered for high-performance and long-lasting durability in demanding industrial environments. Designed specifically for electric pallet jacks and powered material handling equipment, these caster wheels provide the perfect balance of strength, maneuverability, and floor protection. Ideal for warehouses, logistics centers, manufacturing plants, and other heavy-load applications, these wheels ensure smooth and efficient movement across a variety of surfaces.
High-Quality Polyurethane Tread:
Made from industrial-grade polyurethane, these wheels offer superior resistance to abrasion, chemicals, oils, and cuts.
The non-marking tread protects floors from damage and ensures quiet, vibration-free operation.
Heavy-Duty Core Construction:
The core is typically made from forged steel, ductile iron, or aluminum, providing exceptional load-bearing capability.
Engineered for stability and strength, especially under continuous and high-impact use.
Load Capacity:
Each wheel can support heavy loads, typically ranging from 800 to 1,500 lbs (360 to 680 kg), depending on the wheel size and core design.
Smooth and Quiet Operation:
Polyurethane absorbs shocks and reduces noise, improving operator comfort and minimizing wear on equipment.
Ideal for operations requiring minimal noise levels and smooth movement.
Mounting Options:
Available in different bore sizes and bearing types:
Plain bore
Ball bearings
Roller bearings
Designed to fit most electric pallet jack models, including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Hyster, Yale, and more.
Wheel Sizes:
Common diameters: 3", 4", 5", and 6"
Widths and bore sizes are available in standard and custom specifications.
Surface Compatibility:
Suitable for concrete, epoxy-coated floors, tile, and other indoor surfaces.
Also capable of handling semi-rough surfaces in controlled outdoor environments.
Durability & Maintenance:
Designed for long service life with minimal maintenance.
Easy to install and replace, reducing downtime during maintenance cycles.
