FAQ

Q1: Why choose polyurethane wheels over rubber or nylon wheels?
PU wheels offer better wear resistance, higher load capacity, and longer service life while maintaining smooth and quiet operation.

Q2: Are polyurethane wheels suitable for heavy-duty applications?
Yes, they are commonly used in forklifts, conveyors, and industrial equipment requiring high strength and durability.

Q3: Can PU wheels be customized?
Yes, dimensions, hardness, core materials, and bearing systems can all be customized.

Q4: Do polyurethane wheels resist oil and chemicals?
PU material performs well in environments exposed to oil, grease, and many chemicals.

Q5: How do I select the right wheel hardness?
Softer wheels provide better shock absorption, while harder wheels offer higher load capacity and wear resistance. Our team can assist with selection.
