As highlighted by RWM Casters in their article “Urethane on Aluminum Wheels,” these wheels are designed to outperform traditional rubber wheels in industrial and heavy-duty applications. Urethane is chemically bonded to aluminum cores, providing a durable and resilient solution for various industries. The aluminum cores are lightweight and resistant to rust, although they may corrode when exposed to certain chemicals. For environments where this is a concern, solid urethane wheels can serve as an alternative.
The wheels are slightly crowned to reduce the energy required for movement, even under heavy loads, making them highly efficient. Known for their outstanding abrasion, oil, and chemical resistance, urethane on aluminum wheels are non-marking and help protect floors from damage. This combination of rollability, durability, and floor protection makes them ideal for a variety of surfaces and environments.
