Description

This product is a Ductile Steel Wheel that is 10″ in diameter and 4″ wide.  It comes equipped with tapered roller bearings and spanners for a 1-1/4″ axle.

The Ductile Steel Wheel is built for heavy-duty industrial use. It’s made from high-grade ductile steel with a tensile strength of 45,000 psi, so it lasts long and resists wear. It comes in widths of 2″, 2.5″, 3″,  and 4″, and diameters from 4″ to 12″, handling loads from 1,500 lbs to 17,000 lbs based on size. You can pair it with roller, precision sealed ball, bronze, or tapered roller bearings for different needs—smooth movement, high heat, or heavy loads. It has a lubrication fitting for maintenance. It’s tough but can damage factory floors, so use it on steel plates, in channels, or as V-groove wheels on angle iron tracks.

It works in extreme conditions, taking heat up to 400°F and shrugging off impacts. Pick flat or crown tread for your surface. It’s not for protecting floors—it’s for carrying big loads reliably. Need help picking the right one? Call Caster City at 800-501-3808 or email sales@castercity.com.

Why choose ductile steel wheels for your heavy-duty operations?

Applications for Ductile Steel Wheels

• Mining Operations: Tackles heavy machinery and ore carts on brutal terrain, shrugging off impacts and grit.
• Powder Coating and Protection Coating: Powder coating and sandblasting for large metal structures
• Welding Tables: Holds up under hefty metal pieces and takes the heat from welding like a champ.
• Heavy Manufacturing: Hauls oversized parts or equipment in factories where floors aren’t the priority.
• Steel Mills: Keeps moving in scorching heat, carrying molten metal or big steel loads.
• Construction Sites: Powers through uneven ground, lugging heavy stuff outdoors without a hitch.
• Industrial Ovens: Stays strong in blazing temps, shifting racks or trays in high-heat processing.

Ductile Steel Caster Wheels from Caster City

Caster City’s Ductile Steel Industrial Caster Wheels are designed for heavy-duty applications where loads surpass the capacity of floor-protective wheels or severe service conditions are present. Ideal for industrial and manufacturing settings where floor wear is secondary to the critical tasks performed, these wheels are available in 2”, 3”, and 4” widths and diameters ranging from 4” to 16”. With high ductility and tensile strength, our ductile steel wheels absorb shocks and impacts without failure, ensuring reliable performance in rugged environments. For precise, guided movement, we offer a V-groove design that rolls smoothly on inverted angle iron tracks, providing stable and controlled operation in demanding conditions.

These Ductile Steel Industrial Caster Wheels are built for exceptional durability, featuring either roller bearings or sealed precision ball bearings, with load ratings determined solely by bearing capacity. Each wheel includes a lubrication fitting in the hub for easy maintenance and prolonged service life. Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 400°F depending on the application, these solid steel wheels are well-suited for challenging environments. For continuous temperatures above 400°F, where steel roller bearings and spanner bushings may anneal, consult our engineering team to ensure optimal performance in high-temperature applications.

While Ductile Steel Industrial Caster Wheels excel at handling substantial loads in harsh conditions, they can damage most factory floors under heavy loads. To mitigate this, they are typically used on steel plating, in metal channels, or as V-grooved wheels on angle iron tracks to protect costly flooring. Compared to Gray Iron wheels, our ductile steel wheels offer superior ductility and tensile strength, making them the top choice for environments requiring shock absorption and reliability. Contact Caster City for custom configurations to meet your heavy-duty needs with our durable, high-capacity ductile steel wheels.
