As reported by Hamilton Caster in the article “Ergo-Glide® Wheels,” the ErgoTech® line is one of Hamilton’s best rolling wheels, designed specifically to minimize push/pull forces and reduce work-related injuries. These ergonomic wheels feature a donut-style tread and maintenance-free precision ball bearings, offering effortless rolling and improved workplace safety.
A key factor in the performance of ErgoTech wheels is their high-energy, soft 87A durometer polyurethane. This material not only enhances traction but also repels debris and foreign objects, ensuring smooth movement across various surfaces. Additionally, these wheels operate quieter than most other polyurethane options, reducing noise in industrial and commercial settings.
For applications requiring increased durability over ergonomic ease, Hamilton offers the Ergo-Glide® wheels. While they may have slightly higher push/pull resistance, they provide superior longevity and performance under heavier loads, making them ideal for industrial environments where wear resistance is a priority.
Choosing the right caster and wheel solution is crucial for workplace safety and efficiency. By investing in ergonomically designed wheels, businesses can reduce strain on workers, enhance mobility, and improve overall operational efficiency.
