Technical Specifications















Description
The UXY polyurethane on aluminum wheel from Caster City, now upgraded with high-efficiency stainless steel precision sealed ball bearings in 5×2, 6×2, and 8×2 sizes, delivers unmatched durability for stainless applications. This self-energizing 6-inch orange polyurethane wheel, featuring an 80A Shore hardness crown tread chemically bonded to the aluminum hub, supports up to 1,200 lbs. per wheel (4,800 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 corrosive environments like chemical plants 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 stainless steel bearings 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 corrosive environments.
Now advanced with high-efficiency stainless bearings for superior corrosion resistance, the UXY wheel excels in demanding settings like breweries, dairies, and coastal warehouses, where hygiene and durability are paramount. Its quiet, smooth performance supports seamless operations in schools, hotels, and airports, ensuring long-lasting, maintenance-free reliability for diverse 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.
