Polyurethane on Iron Caster Wheel from Caster City

Caster City’s PYH Industrial Caster Wheel is engineered for heavy-duty applications, featuring an extra thick ¾” polyurethane tire bonded to a robust cast iron core for superior load capacity and extended lifespan. Available in diameters from 6” to 12” and tread widths of 3” or 4”, the PYH wheel is designed to handle higher load ratings and more demanding conditions than standard polyurethane wheels of its size. Its Shore D 60 (+/- 5) durometer provides a harder tread, making it particularly suitable for supporting static loads while resisting flat spotting, provided the load does not exceed 70% of the wheel’s rated capacity in static applications.
The PYH wheel’s green polyurethane tire, combined with its heavy iron center, ensures durability and the ability to withstand arduous industrial environments. It offers a variety of bearing options, with tapered roller bearings as standard, and sealed precision ball bearings or roller bearings also available to optimize performance across different applications. The thicker tire enhances the wheel’s capacity to carry heavy loads and endure more abuse than comparable polyurethane wheels, making it an excellent choice for manufacturing, warehousing, or other high-demand settings where reliability is critical.
With a temperature range of -40°F to 180°F, the PYH Industrial Caster Wheel is built to perform in diverse conditions while maintaining its structural integrity. The harder durometer and extra thick tire design provide exceptional support for static loads, ensuring stability and longevity. For heavy-duty applications requiring a balance of high capacity, durability, and performance, the PYH wheel stands out as a top solution. Contact Caster City for custom configurations to meet your specific industrial needs with this versatile, high-performance caster wheel.
Polyurethane Caster Wheels – Superior Performance Casters
- PY
- PYR
Polyurethane Caster Wheels from Caster City offer superior performance compared to rubber wheels, excelling in resistance to grease, oil, cutting, chunking, and abrasive wear. Available in green (PY) or red (PYR) polyurethane tread bonded to a durable iron core, these wheels are designed for versatility and can be used on nearly any factory floor. With a tire hardness of 90–95 Durometer (Shore A), they provide excellent durability while maintaining a temperature range of -20°F to 180°F. The bonding agent securing the polyurethane tread to the iron center may be affected by certain chemicals, high impact, overloading, or heat buildup, so proper application is key. Available in widths of 1.25”, 1.5”, 2”, and 3” and diameters up to 16”, these wheels support a variety of bearing types, including precision sealed ball bearings, roller bearings, or stainless steel bearings, ensuring smooth operation across diverse industrial settings.
The primary advantage of polyurethane wheels over rubber is their significantly higher load capacity – up to three times that of a comparable rubber wheel under ideal conditions on smooth floors. This makes them an excellent choice for heavy-duty applications in industries such as material handling, manufacturing, warehousing, and automotive, where they can be used on platform trucks, assembly line carts, or heavy equipment movers. While polyurethane wheels roll more easily than rubber at the same load, they may become less easy-rolling when pushed to their maximum capacity. Capacity ratings serve as a guideline for safe operation, but actual performance depends on usage, service conditions, and environmental factors. To ensure optimal performance, consult Caster City’s engineering team at 800-501-3808 for guidance on high-impact or high-temperature applications.
