Rubber Wheel - GR series

Elastic Rubber. With the features of high elasticity, excelling in load bearing, wear resistances, Elastic Rubber is suitable for using in the most of environment, especially the case of need buffer. Also, travel with high stability and reduce the friction coefficient, it can be easily moved in any uneven surface throughout indoors or outdoors. And rubber wheel has added some oil resistant agent, so that it has better resistance against oil.

Plastic Wheel (PP) - GP series

Polypropylene Wheel (PP). Use the high impact resistance material to product the plastic wheel. It is light weight and excellent in moisture and corrosion resistance. Also, the price is the most economical. It is suitable for most ground.

Nylon Wheel - GN series

Nylon(PA6) is light in weight and excellent resistances against moisture, wear, and corrosion.

Phenolic Wheel - GX series

Made of phenolic resin and the specific fabric through thermosetting process, phenolic wheels are high load capacities, resistant to extreme temperatures(-20~200⁰C) and high compression. It is the high-end material of caster.

PU Wheel - GU series

Polyurethane wheel is suppressive property against fouling to floor surface and the resistance against oil and chemical. Besides, natural perfusion PU can’t be hydrolyzed, so it can maintain a stable material hardness and less pollution to the ground. The range of application is quite extensive.

TPU Wheel - GTU series

Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPU) has good wear resistance and abrasion. For our TPU wheel, we will add plastic cover for prevent the dust and beautify the appearance. However, for thermoplastic polyurethanes, it will be hydrolyzed as time went by.
