Advantages and uses of polyurethane wheels: The emergence of wheels can be said to greatly facilitate human production and life. From mechanical equipment and various means of transportation to carts and luggage, we are constantly enjoying the convenience brought by various wheels for our work and life. According to different usage needs and scenarios, the size, material, and load capacity of the wheels also vary. Polyurethane wheels are generally composed of a metal core and an external polyurethane coating, and are currently widely used in the market. Next, Xinxin will discuss the advantages and uses of polyurethane wheels with everyone in detail.
1. The main advantages of polyurethane wheels 1. Physical and mechanical properties can be regulated The physical and mechanical performance indicators of polyurethane wheels can be flexibly changed within a certain range by selecting raw materials and adjusting formulas, thereby meeting various requirements of users for product performance, such as hardness, elasticity, etc. 2. Good wear resistance The polyurethane wheel directly contacts the ground in various states and bears the gravity of the upper carrier, which results in greater friction. The polyurethane wheel exhibits good wear resistance, and due to its elasticity, it is relatively quiet. Under working conditions with wetting media such as water and oil, the wear resistance of polyurethane wheels is often several to dozens of times that of ordinary rubber materials. 3. Diverse processing methods Polyurethane wheel elastomers can be formed using the same molding, mixing, and vulcanization processes as general rubber; It can also be made into liquid pouring molding, spraying, potting, or centrifugal molding; It can also be made into granular materials, which, like ordinary plastics, are formed through processes such as injection, extrusion, rolling, and blow molding. The diversity of processing has made polyurethane wheels more versatile and their application fields are constantly expanding. 4. Long service life Polyurethane wheels have characteristics such as oil resistance, aging resistance, low temperature resistance, and extrusion resistance, making them less prone to cracking and deformation after long-term use. In contrast, they have a longer service life. Polyurethane wheel 2. The use of polyurethane wheels 1. Usage of small and medium-sized polyurethane wheels Suitable for luggage, furniture, mobile cases, light industrial equipment, shelves, storage vehicles, food conveying equipment, medium-sized electromechanical equipment, office furniture, medical equipment, electronic instrument equipment, logistics handling equipment, and various types of hand carts. 2. Usage of heavy-duty polyurethane wheels Suitable for mechanical equipment, large electronic instrument equipment, logistics transfer vehicles, flat trucks, heavy shelves, manual forklifts, heavy storage equipment, storage cages, etc.
