Steel Wheels
Steel wheels provide the highest capacities for their size of any wheel material. They are rugged and long lasting and can withstand chemicals and heavy loads. Rounded edges make these wheels easy to turn. Tapered roller bearings withstand both downward and side force.

Solid-Tread Flat-Free Wheels
Tread
Pattern
The thick, solid rubber or polyurethane foam treads provide the cushioned ride of an air-filled pneumatic wheel without the possibility of a flat tire.
Rubber wheels are quiet, shock absorbing, and provide good traction on rough surfaces.
Roller bearings provide smooth rolling.
Center-mount hubs are symmetrical for equal clearance on both sides of the wheel.

Steel-Hub Pneumatic Wheels
Tread
Pattern
These wheels consist of an air-filled rubber tire on a steel rim and are among the quietest, most shock-absorbing wheels available.
Roller bearings provide smooth rolling.
Center-mount hubs are symmetrical for equal clearance on both sides of the wheel.

V-Groove Track Wheels
These wheels have a 90° V-groove and a flat tread to move your equipment on angle-iron track as well as the floor.
Metal wheels are rugged and long lasting, and can withstand chemicals, high temperatures, and heavy loads. Roller bearings provide smoother rolling than sleeve bearings.

Wheel Bearings
Replace worn or damaged wheel bearings to keep your equipment rolling. Use flanged bearings and ball bearings in pairs. Change the axle diameter with wheel reducer bushings (sold separately).
Note: Not for use in towing applications.
For impact-resistant tapered roller bearings, as well as other bearing materials and sizes, please see Ball and Roller Bearings and Sleeve Bearings. Roller bearings provide smooth rolling.
Retaining washers hold roller bearings in place.
