Polyurethane Tyre Wheels
Castor Wheels with a Polyurethane Tyre are one of the most popular choice of wheel for casters. The polyurethane is softer than hard treads like Nylon or Cast Iron, without compressing as much as rubber and offering great load ratings and low rolling resistance. The softer tyre reduces the risk of damage or marking on most floors, and can... absorb rolling vibrations, reducing noise.Polyurethane tyres are available with Nylon, Aluminium and Cast Iron Centres.
In heavy duty applications, polyurethane is hard wearing with more abrasion and tear resistance than rubber tyre castor wheels offering 10 times the useful life. Read More

Castor Wheel 75mm | Polyurethane Tyre / Cast Iron Centre, 300kg, 12mm Plain Bore (07535PT012)
£43.9275mm Polyurethane (Premium Grade REVVOTHANE) Tyre ... Read Moreon a Cast Iron Centre Wheel running on 12mm smooth plain bore. This is high performance industrial wheel and the stated load capacity of 300kg is based on the wheel being manually propelled at 4 km/h (walking speed).As a high performance wheel it can be used in more demanding applications than a standard polyurethane tyre castor wheel could be:As with all polyurethane tyre wheels, extended periods of use or speeds greater 4 km/h will result in surface friction. This friction generates heat that builds up in the polyurethane that will cause a standard polyurethane tyre to de-bond from the cast iron. REVVOTHANE is a very high quality polyurethane that offers minimal heat build up and performs exceptionally well within the following guidelines:- If the wheel be in continual use for more than 45 minutes, this reduces the load capacity by 25%.
- The load capacity is reduced by a further 30% if used as Drive Wheel
- Reduce load by further 20% if the running speed is between 6 km/h and 10 km/h
- Reduce the load by a further 30% if the running speed is between 10 km/h and 16 km/h

The Polyurethane tyre offers a low tractive resistance making it easier to get moving compared with softer rubber tread wheels. It is also a bit softer than hard tread wheels making it smoother and quieter running. The polyurethane tyre is also non-marking and gentle on floors while the roller bearing lowers the rolling resistance to reduce the effort required start the wheel rolling.
