FAQ
โNPโ High Temperature Glass-Filled Nylon Wheels
What are โNPโ high temperature wheels made of?
Our โNPโ high temperature wheels are crafted from nylon mixed with glass fiber, built for heavy duty industrial casters that thrive in moist heat environments like smokehouses or pressurized steam-autoclaves, delivering tough, reliable performance.
What applications are ideal for โNPโ high heat casters?
These high heat casters and wheels are designed for moist heat applications, such as smokehouses, moist heat bakery ovens, autoclaves, and around water or steam in pressurized steam-autoclaves, where they handle loads with ease.
Whatโs the temperature limit for โNPโ high temperature casters?
โNPโ high temperature wheels can take continuous operation up to 425ยฐF and hit 475ยฐF to 550ยฐF intermittently for 30 minutes max. Cool them to room temperature after use to maintain their service life.
What sizes do โNPโ industrial casters come in?
Our โNPโ casters and wheels are available in diameters from 3โ to 12โ with tread widths of 1.25โ to 3โ, providing versatile options for heavy duty casters in moist high heat applications.
Can โNPโ heavy duty casters be used on rough floors?
No, โNPโ high temperature wheels are made for smooth floor surfaces only. Rough floors or obstructions will wear down these industrial casters and cut their life short.
Are โNPโ high heat casters suitable for dry heat environments?
Nope, โNPโ heat casters are built for moist heat only. In dry heat, like powder coating ovens, the wheelโs moisture content drops to zero, causing it to shatter. Use our โTPโ high temperature wheels for dry heat.
How do I protect โNPโ high temperature wheels in moist heat settings?
Keep โNPโ heavy duty industrial casters shielded from direct heat sources, like open flames, to avoid damage and ensure top performance in moist high heat environments like autoclaves.
Do โNPโ casters and wheels mark floors?
No, the nylon and glass fiber build of โNPโ high temperature wheels is non-marking, perfect for protecting smooth floors in smokehouses, moist heat bakeries, or steam-autoclave setups.
Why are โNPโ heavy duty casters a good choice for moist heat?
โNPโ high heat casters offer durable, moisture-resistant performance for high temperature wheel applications around water and steam, making them a solid pick for autoclaves and smokehouses without failing in wet conditions.
Can โNPโ high temperature wheels go above 550ยฐF?
No, running โNPโ heat caster wheels above 425ยฐF for more than 30 minutes or past 550ยฐF will shorten their life. Always let them cool down after high heat exposure.
