Benefits and applications

This PU wheel is specially designed for slow-running equipment up to 4 km/h and, thanks to the foamed PU tyre, offers a clear advantage over pneumatic tyres: no flats, no re-inflating and constant load capacity. The hardness of 85 Shore A provides a good compromise between cushioning and stability, ideal for uneven surfaces in the garden, yard or workplace.

The block tread ensures good grip on soil, grass and solid ground, while the robust plastic rim is corrosion-resistant and lightweight. With a 20 mm bore and 75 mm hub length, the wheel can easily be retrofitted to many common wheelbarrows, carts and transport devices or used as a replacement wheel.

Explanation of technical terms

• Tyre type PU: PU (polyurethane) is a foamed, puncture-proof material. It contains no air like conventional pneumatic tyres and therefore cannot go flat.
• Block tread: A block tread consists of rectangular tread blocks that provide good grip on various surfaces while still rolling easily.
• Inch size: Indicates the rim diameter in inches (1 inch = 25.4 mm). Here 8 inch.
• Hardness Shore A: Indicates the rubber hardness. The higher the value, the harder the material. 85 Shore A stands for a relatively firm but still cushioning material.
• Roller bearing: A bearing with rolling elements (e.g. balls or rollers) that ensures smooth running and reduced wear on the axle.
• Load capacity: The maximum load that a wheel may safely carry. Here 100 kg under intended use.
• Max. speed: Maximum permissible speed at which the wheel may be operated, here 4 km/h (typical for hand-guided equipment).
