Description
Our “NP” high temperature wheels, constructed from nylon mixed with glass fibers, are built for heavy duty industrial casters in moist high heat environments like smokehouses, moist heat bakery ovens, autoclaves, and pressurized steam-autoclaves, delivering tough performance on smooth floor surfaces. These high heat casters and wheels handle continuous operation up to 425°F and can withstand 475°F to 550°F for 30 minutes intermittently, provided they cool to room temperature afterward to maintain their service life. Available in diameters from 3” to 8” and tread widths of 1.25” to 2”, these hard, brittle high temperature wheels are non-marking but require smooth, flat floors, as rough surfaces or obstructions can damage them and shorten their lifespan.
Designed exclusively for moist heat, “NP” heat caster wheels will shatter in dry heat applications like powder coating ovens when their moisture content drops to zero, making our “TP” high temperature wheels the better choice for dry conditions. Their durable, moisture-resistant build makes them ideal for high temperature caster applications involving water or steam, ensuring reliable mobility in wet, hot settings. By using these heavy duty casters on smooth floors and shielding them from direct heat sources, users achieve long-lasting performance in demanding moist heat operations.
FAQ
“NP” High Temperature Glass-Filled Nylon Wheels
What are “NP” high temperature wheels made of?
Our “NP” 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 “NP” 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.
What’s the temperature limit for “NP” high temperature casters?
“NP” high temperature wheels can take continuous operation up to 425°F and hit 475°F to 550°F intermittently for 30 minutes max. Cool them to room temperature after use to maintain their service life.
What sizes do “NP” industrial casters come in?
Our “NP” casters and wheels are available in diameters from 3” to 12” with tread widths of 1.25” to 3”, providing versatile options for heavy duty casters in moist high heat applications.
Can “NP” heavy duty casters be used on rough floors?
No, “NP” 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 “NP” high heat casters suitable for dry heat environments?
Nope, “NP” heat casters are built for moist heat only. In dry heat, like powder coating ovens, the wheel’s moisture content drops to zero, causing it to shatter. Use our “TP” high temperature wheels for dry heat.
How do I protect “NP” high temperature wheels in moist heat settings?
Keep “NP” 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 “NP” casters and wheels mark floors?
No, the nylon and glass fiber build of “NP” high temperature wheels is non-marking, perfect for protecting smooth floors in smokehouses, moist heat bakeries, or steam-autoclave setups.
Why are “NP” heavy duty casters a good choice for moist heat?
“NP” 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 “NP” high temperature wheels go above 550°F?
No, running “NP” heat caster wheels above 425°F for more than 30 minutes or past 550°F will shorten their life. Always let them cool down after high heat exposure.
