Polyurethane is a castable polymer class that is valued for its excellent wear resistance, easiness to use/mold, resistance to harsh environments (such as heat/acids/oil), high noise reduction properties, high abrasion resistance, and high-quality surface finish. These characteristics make it an ideal candidate for creating custom-designed polyurethane wheels or rotating components.
Benefits of Polyurethane Wheels
Polyurethane wheels offer a high degree of customization. Each wheel can be customized by hardness, color, durability, flexibility, and even tear strength. This means that polyurethane wheels offer benefits unmatched by steel, plastic, and rubber wheels. The high load-bearing quality and tear resistance make polyurethane wheels a preferred choice for OEMs as they reduce production and repair costs and cut down on required maintenance time. Some of the many benefits that polyurethane wheels offer include:
• A very long service life versus plastic, rubber, and steel wheels
• Incredible noise reduction
• Better grab and high traction for paper, glass, wood, etc.
• FDA approval for food processing and clean rooms
• Strong resistance to abrasion, harsh chemicals, acids, and solvents
• Decreased conveyor system downtime
• Customizable colors that are non-marking
• Customizable hardnesses, ranging from sponge-soft or iron-strong
• The ability to handle extreme temperatures, both hot and cold
• Increased profitability
