Types of Rubber Wheel

 

The rubber wheels produced by our company mainly include the following types:

 
01
 

Natural Rubber Wheels

Natural rubber wheels are rolling components made of natural rubber as the core elastic material and combined with metal hubs/mandons.

 
02
 

Nitrile Rubber Wheels

Nitrile rubber wheels are industrial wheels mainly made of nitrile rubber (NBR). Nitrile rubber is a synthetic rubber made by copolymerizing butadiene and acrylonitrile, and its performance (especially oil resistance) depends on the content of acrylonitrile (ACN).

 
03
 

V Shaped Wheels

V-shaped rubber wheel refers to a guide wheel made of rubber material and processed with a "V" - shaped groove on the wheel surface. It is designed specifically for operation on rails such as angle iron, square steel, and V-shaped guide rails, while fully utilizing the high elasticity, high friction, and shock-absorbing properties of rubber.

Advantages of Rubber Wheel

 

1

Great Shock Absorption

Rubber wheels are renowned for their shock absorption capabilities. The rubber material absorbs the impact, reducing the risk of damage to the cargo and ensuring a smooth and secure ride.

2

Enhanced Floor Protection

Another advantage of rubber wheels is their ability to protect flooring surfaces. Unlike harder wheels made of metal or plastic, rubber wheels are generally more gentle on various floor types. This includes hardwood, tiles, and vinyl.

3

Excellent Traction

Rubber wheels are known for offering excellent traction on both smooth and uneven surfaces, depending on the type of rubber used. The rubber material grips the floor firmly, which prevents slippage and ensures stability.

4

Quiet Operation

If your industry requires minimal noise, then rubber wheels are highly recommended. Rubber wheels, particularly ones made from softer material, offer noise reduction and smooth operation.

5

Chemical Resistance

Rubber wheels offer amazing resistance to harsh substances, including chemicals, oil or grease, and solvents. The high level of resistance ensures that the wheels remain durable and functional even when exposed to harsh substances.

6

Easy Maneuverability

Rubber wheels still offer great maneuverability, even if it is less in comparison to polyurethane. Combined with great cushioning and traction, this makes rubber casters not only fairly easy to operate but also gives users a safe and smooth rolling.

7

Versatile and All-Purpose

Rubber wheels are incredibly versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications. They come in various sizes, load capacities, mounting options, as well as type of rubber material — all of which ensures compatibility with different equipment and environments.

 

 
 
Applications of Rubber Wheel
01.

Hospital and Medical Equipment

Rubber wheels are ideal for hospital trolleys, beds, and carts. They absorb shocks, reduce noise, and are gentle on floors, making them perfect for healthcare settings.

02.

Commercial and Office Equipment

Rubber wheels are frequently used on office chairs, file cabinets, and other commercial equipment due to their quiet operation and floor protection capabilities.

03.

Hand Carts and Trolleys

For carts used in warehouses or retail stores, rubber wheels are the go-to choice. They provide smooth, easy movement while minimizing noise and reducing wear on floors.

04.

Hotels and Resorts

Hotel luggage carts rely on rubber wheels for smooth transportation of luggage without disturbing guests. The noise reduction and floor protection are crucial in these environments.

 

Comparison Between Polyurethane Wheels and Rubber Wheels

 

Feature

Polyurethane Wheels

Rubber Wheels

Noise Reduction & Vibration Dampening

Moderate noise reduction; less effective at dampening vibrations than rubber

Excellent at absorbing vibrations and reducing noise; ideal for quiet environments

Temperature Resistance

Performs well in extreme temperatures (-80°F to 200°F); maintains shape and performance

Moderate resistance; may become brittle in cold or soften in high heat

Durability & Lifespan

Highly durable; excellent resistance to abrasion, cuts, and tears

Good durability, but tends to wear faster under high-friction or heavy-load conditions

Chemical & Oil Resistance

Outstanding resistance to oils, greases, solvents, and chemicals

Limited chemical resistance; susceptible to swelling or degradation

Load-Bearing Capacity

Superior; supports heavy loads without deforming

Moderate; may compress under high weight

Floor Protection

Non-marking; protects sensitive floors

May leave scuff marks or black streaks

Customizability

Highly customizable in terms of hardness, size, and formulation

Custom options are available but are more limited than polyurethane

Cost

Generally more expensive upfront, but cost-effective long-term due to durability

Lower initial cost; may require more frequent replacement

Versatility

Suitable for industrial, medical, and specialized environments

Commonly used in commercial and general-purpose applications

Tooling & Manufacturing Efficiency

Fast tooling and production with custom resins; low lead times are possible

Tooling is relatively standard; production timelines may vary

 

 
Precautions for Using Rubber Wheels

Clean regularly to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can reduce wheel life.

Avoid overloading beyond rated capacity to prevent wheel damage.

Lubricate bearings periodically for smooth movement.

Inspect for wear and tear — replace wheels when cracks, flat spots, or deformations appear.

FAQ

Q: What is a rubber wheel?

A: Rubber wheels and castors can be used for a wide range of applications. The elastic tread provides a high level of floor surface preservation and makes the equipment quiet when in motion. This makes it possible to achieve an excellent level of operational comfort, even on difficult floor surfaces.

Q: Why are rubber wheels better?

A: It is the highest quality wheel material, with superb grip, durability and softness. Rubber wheels feel incredibly smooth to push and work well at any temperature. In addition, rubber is the safest material - it doesn't slide on smooth or wet surfaces and lasts longer.

Q: How long do rubber wheels last?

A: A good rule of thumb is to consider replacing your car tires every 6 years or sooner if they're worn down. Check for tread depth of 2/32″ or less — that's when tires must be replaced.

Q: Which is better, EVA wheels or rubber wheels?

A: Rubber Wheels are more suitable for high-load, high-traction, and shock-absorbing applications, making them ideal for industrial use. EVA Wheels are best for lightweight, budget-conscious applications, offering flexibility and good shock absorption.

Q: What are rubber wheels made of?

A: 60% of rubber used in the tire industry is synthetic rubber, produced from petroleum-derived hydrocarbons, although natural rubber is still necessary for the remaining 40%. Synthetic elastomers deform under stress and return to their original shape when the stress is removed (hysteresis).

Q: How to Choose the Right Rubber Wheels?

A: Selecting the right rubber wheels involves careful consideration of material composition, hardness, load capacity, environmental conditions, and size. By aligning these factors with your specific application needs, you ensure optimal performance, safety, and longevity of your equipment.
