With the development of modern industry, industrial caster and wheel have become increasingly visible. We often say that industrial casters refer mainly to caster products used in factories or machinery. They can be high-grade imported reinforced nylon (PA6), super polyurethane, or rubber single wheel. The product has high overall resistance, impact, and strength.
Simply put, industrial casters fall into two main categories:
A fixed caster is a directional wheel. It is equipped with a single wheel on a fixed bracket and can move only in a straight line.
A movable caster is a universal wheel. It is a 360-degree steering bracket with a single wheel that can travel in any direction at will.
How to choose the right industrial casters
Industrial casters are available in a wide variety of wheels, sizes, models, and tire surfaces. There are many different factors to consider when choosing industrial casters. The key is to find the casters that are best suited to the environment. Yutong recommends that you consider the following aspects:
- Carrying capacity. This determines the weight of the load and the size of the wheel. It also affects the rotation of the industrial casters. For example, a ball bearing is suitable for heavy load requirements of over 180 kg.
- Use site conditions. Select a wheel that is large enough to accommodate cracks in the floor. Also consider road size, obstacles, and other factors.
- Special environment. Each wheel is appropriate for different working environments. For example, traditional rubber is not resistant to acids, oils, and chemicals. Instead, polyurethane rubber wheels, plastic wheels, modified Bakelite wheels, and steel wheels are good choices.
- Rotational flexibility. The greater the wheel, the more labor-saving it is. The ball bearing can carry heavier loads, and it rotates more flexibly with lighter loads.
- Temperature limits. Extreme cold and heat can create trouble for many wheels. When choosing a caster, pay attention to the temperature range that is suitable for use.
