Cast Iron wheel with forged steel bracket, zinc chromated
High abrasion resistance
Ideally suited to moving heavy loads

Polyurethane tyred wheels have high tear strength and abrasion resistance which gives them a life of up to 10 times that of rubber under similar operating conditions. Polyurethane is able to carry loads approaching that of cast iron. Polyurethane has a lower tractive resistance than rubber for the same load so is better for manual handling of very heavy loads. Polyurethane is not affected by greases and mineral oils.
