6″ x 2″ Premium Polyurethane on Iron Wheel

Description

The “PX” Premium Polyurethane on Iron Wheel is engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications, featuring a 1″ thick polyurethane tire (95A Durometer) bonded to a robust iron core. With sizes ranging from 2″ to 4″ widths and diameters up to 16″, it supports impressive load capacities—up to 10,000 lbs for the 16×5 size. Its standout feature is the ability to slow down heat buildup during operation, minimizing wear and prolonging service life in high-stress settings. This wheel delivers smooth rolling, chemical resistance, and non-marking performance, making it ideal for industries like aerospace, defense, and manufacturing. Equipped with precision sealed ball or tapered roller bearings, it functions reliably between -20° and 180° F, ensuring durability where performance is critical.

The polyurethane layer not only absorbs impact to protect floors and cargo but also reduces noise, a key advantage in controlled environments. Trusted by industry leaders like NASA and Boeing, the “PX” wheel excels at safeguarding valuable surfaces and equipment while maintaining cool operation in high-friction or continuous-use scenarios. It’s not designed for rough terrain or sudden shocks—opt for smooth, controlled settings to maximize its benefits.
