Description
The UXY polyurethane on aluminum wheel from Caster City, now upgraded with high-efficiency, maintenance-free precision sealed ball bearings (non-stainless) now in 10″ diameter sizes, delivers exceptional durability for non-stainless applications. This self-energizing 10-inch orange polyurethane wheel, featuring an 80A Shore hardness crown tread chemically bonded to the aluminum hub, supports up to 1,400 lbs. per wheel (5,600 lbs. with four), ensuring a quiet, smooth ride in food processing plants, healthcare facilities, and pharmaceutical labs. Its debris-rejecting, shock-absorbing tread safeguards floors from scuffs and cracks, while the non-rusting aluminum hub with a heatsink design dissipates heat, guaranteeing longevity in environments like industrial warehouses or marine settings.
Optimized for efficiency, the UXY wheel minimizes push/pull force, easing strain in towline and mobile equipment setups while enhancing performance with low-resistance design. High-efficiency, maintenance-free precision sealed ball bearings (non-stainless) and a robust aluminum core provide reliable, debris-free operation across indoor and outdoor applications, from bustling hospitality settings to sensitive laboratory floors. This versatile, floor-protecting wheel glides seamlessly, rejecting grit and dust, making it a trusted choice for heavy-duty tasks in high-tech, hygiene-critical, and industrial environments.
Now advanced with high-efficiency, maintenance-free precision sealed ball bearings (non-stainless) for enhanced durability, the UXY wheel excels in demanding settings like breweries, dairies, and coastal warehouses, where robust performance is essential. Its quiet, smooth operation supports seamless mobility in schools, hotels, and airports, ensuring long-lasting reliability for diverse non-stainless applications.
Footnote: The polyurethane is chemically bonded to the aluminum hub, but in rare cases, certain chemicals may react with the aluminum, potentially causing bonding failure. Consult Caster City for specific chemical compatibility.
