Wheel and bearing selection for logistics box tools box caster

Medium duty caster wheel has casters of various materials, such as pp casters, PVC casters, PU casters, cast iron casters, nylon casters, TPR casters, iron core nylon casters, iron core PU casters, etc. So how do we choose the wheels and bearings of the logistics box /tools box caster? Let's see together.

Here is the content list:

Wheel selection

1. Select the logistics box /tools box caster material: first, consider the size of the road surface, obstacles, residual substances on the use site (such as iron filings, grease), the environmental conditions (such as high temperature, normal temperature, or low temperature) and the wheel can carry different conditions such as weight determine the selection of suitable wheel materials.

2. Calculate the carrying weight: To be able to calculate the carrying capacity required by various logistics box /tools box casters, it is necessary to know the self-weight of the transport equipment, the maximum load, and the number of single wheels and casters used.

3. Determine the size of the wheel diameter: Generally, the larger the diameter of the logistics box /tools box caster, the easier it is to push, the greater the load capacity, and the better the ability to protect the ground from damage. The selection of wheel diameter should first consider the weight of the load and the truck under the load. The starting thrust is determined.

4. The choice of hard and soft wheel material: Usually, logistics box /tools box casters include nylon wheels, super polyurethane wheels, high-strength polyurethane wheels, high-strength synthetic rubber wheels, iron wheels, and inflatable wheels. Super polyurethane wheels and high-strength wheels can meet your handling requirements whether running on the indoor or outdoor ground; high-strength synthetic rubber wheels can be used in hotels, medical equipment, floors, wooden floors, tile floors, etc.

5. Rotation flexibility: The larger the single wheel, the more labor-saving it is to rotate, the roller bearing can carry heavier loads, and the resistance during rotation is larger: the single wheel is installed with a high-quality logistics box /tools box caster (bearing steel) ball bearings, which can carry for heavier loads, the rotation is lighter, flexible and quiet.

6. Temperature conditions: Severe cold and high temperature have a great impact on casters. Polyurethane wheels can rotate flexibly and freely at a low temperature of minus 45 °C, and high-temperature resistant wheels can rotate easily at a high temperature of 275 °C.

Bearing selection

1. Terling Bearings: Terling is a special engineering plastic, suitable for wet and corrosive places, with average rotation flexibility and high resistance.

2. Roller bearing: The heat-treated logistics box /tools box caster roller bearing can carry heavier loads and has general rotational flexibility.

3. Ball bearing: The ball bearing made of high-quality logistics box /tools box caster bearing steel can carry heavier loads and is suitable for occasions requiring flexible and quiet rotation.

The above is about the selection of logistics box /tools box caster wheels and bearings, if you are interested in a medium-duty caster wheel, material handling caster, or logistics box /tools box caster, you can contact us, our website is https://www.senocaster.com/.
