Whether wheels are required for a supermarket cart, or heavy lifting machinery trolley's, it is often worth considering wheel refurbishment as an option to extend the life of applications.
All our refurbished wheels, whether polyurethane or steel are rigorously tested and technically specified to ensure superb, safe performance with high load capacity, increased speed and a long life when specified correctly.
Wheels are often a wear part and refurbishment of the polyurethane tread is generally all that is required. Steel centres are reusable and can easily be cleaned up using shot blasting.
For large diameter heavy load polyurethane wheels, refurbishment can offer savings of over 40% against purchasing a new replacement wheel.
Other aspects of the wheel including bores can also benefit from being refurbished effectively producing performance comparable to a brand new wheel.
Replacing an existing polyurethane with a high performance polyurethane such as Vulkollan can increase load and speed capacity.
Applications such as pallet storage systems can run at higher speeds generating real profit gains through efficiency savings.
The carbon footprint is reduced against buying a new product which is often made outside the UK Performance, efficiency and cost savings can be realised by improving the tread specification Steel, Cast Iron & Stainless Steel centres can be bonded with Polyurethane.
