Selecting the right wheel material is just as important as choosing the right caster. At Midwest Caster and Wheel, we offer a variety of wheel materials, each designed to meet specific application requirements. Whether you’re prioritizing load capacity, floor protection, or durability, our selection of steel, rubber, and nylon wheels provides the versatility needed to handle any task.
Steel Wheels: Unmatched Strength and Durability
When strength and durability are paramount, steel wheels are the ideal choice. These wheels are engineered to carry heavy loads and withstand harsh environments. Steel wheels are commonly used in industrial applications where the terrain is rough, and the loads are heavy. They offer exceptional resistance to wear and tear, making them perfect for use on concrete and other hard surfaces. However, due to their rigidity, steel wheels are best suited for environments where floor protection is not a primary concern.
Rubber Wheels: Smooth and Quiet Operation
Rubber wheels are known for their ability to provide smooth and quiet operation, making them a popular choice for applications where noise reduction and floor protection are important. These wheels offer excellent shock absorption, making them ideal for transporting delicate equipment. Rubber wheels are versatile and can be used on a variety of surfaces, from carpets to rough outdoor terrain. They are also non-marking, which helps preserve the condition of your floors.
Nylon Wheels: Lightweight and Durable
Nylon wheels offer a great balance of strength, durability, and lightweight design. These wheels are resistant to chemicals, oils, and moisture, making them an excellent choice for environments where these factors are present. Nylon wheels are also known for their low rolling resistance, which makes moving heavy loads easier. They are commonly used in both industrial and institutional settings due to their versatility and durability.
